Contradeplatform is classified as an adware helper, an application that spreads with adware and supports it in order to keep it active on your system for as long as it possible. Remove Contradeplatform because, unlike other adware helpers that are utilized to install updates or transfer data, this helper is designed to restore adware once it has been removed from your computer. Adware helpers are used to establish the presence of the main adware, so the longer you delay to delete Contradeplatform, the longer you will be pestered with all the advertising content the adware present on your computer displays on your browser.

Though eTranslator is promoted as a tool that translates the highlighted text from English to Russian, and vice-versa, it is in fact an adware application. We advise you to remove this tool because, besides providing you with a translation service of questionable quality, it will start flooding your Internet browser with Russian ads, and thus expose your computer to the Internet-based infections in the process. Developed by eTranslator Corp, eTranslator is a Russian application that you will not find as functional as its English counterparts, hence avoid this suspicious tool and rely on such services you already know like Google Translate.
