Adware Removal

Adware is software that often comes attached or bundled with freeware or shareware. The author of the freeware or shareware generates a revenue stream from the bundled adware. The adware may track user web activity or provide context based advertising in the form of pop-up windows. Adware will not normally delete or corrupt files on your computer but as it runs in the background, it will slow your computer down.

A full adware scan on your computer will take more than half an hour, depending on the number of files on your PC and the speed of the computer. Once the adware has been detected and identified, it must be removed by using specialist anti-adware software tools, sometimes running the PC in safe mode and disconnected from the internet. Removal of adware by simply deleting the adware program files may disable your internet connection.

For continued protection from adware you must be very cautious when clicking on unknown links and you should regularly scan for adware using reputable adware detection applications such as SpyBot Search and Destroy and Lavasoft AdAware. Be aware that a large number of other programs that claim to be adware removal tools are spyware themselves. The Spyware Warrior website has a wealth of information about these programs.
