Applications, like this one, are bound to ask for your permission before they install themselves on your computer. And, seeing as how you’re I your current predicament, the adware asked, and you obliged to its request. You’re probably wondering how an infection tricked you into approving it in, and slipped into your system without you even realizing it? Well, it’s pretty straightforward. It duped you with the help of slyness and subtlety. To succeed in sneaking in undetected, the program usually uses the old but gold means of infiltration. That includes hitching a ride with spam email attachments or freeware, hiding behind corrupted links or sites, or even posing as a fake update. That’s right. You may be utterly convinced you’re updating your Java or Adobe Flash Player, but you’d be wrong. In actuality, you’ll be installing a dangerous and harmful adware application. If that’s something you’d rather avoid, just try to be more careful. Don’t give into carelessness and don’t rush. Even a little extra attention can go a long, long way.

Why are these ads dangerous?

After Your Maps Now fools you into granting it access to your PC, it doesn’t immediately reveal its existence. Instead, it lays low for a while and monitors your actions. The tool observes your online activities, but don’t think it’s for not. This ‘quiet period’ has a purpose. The application studies you so as to to learn your preferences. It attempts to get to know you better, and when it can determine what appeals to you, it begins its bombardment. Does it make sense to you now? The PUP is ad-supported. That means that if it’s to continue its operations, it has to generate web traffic and pay-per-click revenue for the people that published it. To increase its chances of success, it makes sure to throw ‘appropriate’ ads your way, and this is why this ‘quiet period’ is so helpful. Through it, the tool understands you better, it gets to know you. Then it only displays specially selected advertisements, so don’t think they’re random. No matter how entice they seem and how much they spark your interest, do NOT click on them! Be it by choice or accident! It may be difficult, considering they’ll pop up every time you try to browse the web, but do your best to resist. To press even a single ad would be a colossal mistake! Why? Well, by pressing it, you unwillingly agree to install the malware it’s hiding. And, you can be sure that each ad you see is bundled with all kinds of malicious tools. When, on top of all that, you add the security risk it will inevitably place on you, does it truly leave any room for the question whether or not Your Maps Now is worth keeping? The answer is ‘No.’ Delete it immediately after detection. Otherwise, you run the risk of strangers having access to your personal and financial details. That’s right. The adware doesn’t merely monitor your browsing. It also catalogs it. Your Maps Now keeps a thorough record of your every online activity. If you wish to stop it from sending the data, it collected from you to the unknown third parties that support it, delete it the first chance you get. You won’t regret it.
