How does Price Chopper work?
Like all JustPlugIt adware, such as SaveON, RightCoupon, TicTacCoupon, and UniSales, Price Chopper is added to your browser extensions when it is installed. This grants it the ability to monitor your Internet browsing. Information about your web activity is needed to determine your hobbies and needs. This data is used to pick the ads that you are likely to click on. This invasion of privacy should be concerning enough to make you remove Price Chopper from your system; however, there is more.
When you click a Price Chopper advertisement, you get redirected to a third-party website. Universally, adware developers disclaim responsibility for the contents of their partners’ websites, so it is quite likely that some of them could contain threats to your system security. Dangers found on these websites include adware, browser hijackers, or, in extreme cases, malware such as Trojans. You have to remove these threats immediately; otherwise, you will risk further infection. It is always best to delete adware as soon as possible, because it could jeopardize your virtual security.
How is Price Chopper distributed?
Freeware bundling is the most popular way you get PriceChopper onto your system. This is also true for JustPlugIt applications and adware in general. Price Chopper is most often installed by the InstallRex installer, which might be downloaded after clicking fake download links on torrent or other piracy websites. When you run a bundle installer and follow the installation steps, you get offers to install optional programs. If you install these programs, you will have to delete them later, because you will find them quite useless.
