Adware Detection

Adware is another form of spyware, the software that unobtrusively installs itself onto your PC and sends back personal information about your web browsing habits to advertisers via your internet connection. You may have been infected by adware if you downloaded a free program. Some programmers make money by bundling adware with their applications. Adware may also be installed when you use peer-to-peer file sharing software. Trustworthy programmers inform you that the software is sponsored before installation is completed - read the small print.

One symptom of adware is the appearance of pop-up and pop-under advertisements, particularly when you are off-line. Adware pop-ups often advertise pop-up blocker software. Another symptom is the general slowing down of your computer as the spyware uses more and more system resources: memory and CPU power.

Adware is detected by looking through the files on your computer hard disk and identifying those with characteristic signatures of known advertising software.

We can detect and remove computer viruses, Trojans, adware and spyware.
