Anti-spyware 101

The creators of malicious programs usually put in some effort to make their products more appealing. The creators of Treasure Track have not done a good job at making this unreliable advertisement-supported program attractive. The official website, treasuretrack.net, does not explain how this program works and does not list any benefits. This is why it is surprising that computer users install this program at all. In fact, the website representing this adware was set up only to provide the End User License and Privacy Policy documents because an installer does not exist. It appears that the distribution of this ad-supported program was assigned to third-party software distributors, and this is not good news. Unfortunately, this means that you might have to delete Treasure Track-related malware. Read more »

Not a single deal presented by TilDeal should be considered reliable. Even if this despicable ad-supported program throws a few harmless ads into the mix, you are more likely to encounter misleading offers, malware installers, and other unreliable advertisements. Unfortunately, these ads and deals might be concealed using deceptive information, which is why computer users are often tricked into interacting with unreliable deals and offers. Experienced users, who know how schemers work and what kind of tricks they might employ, are unlikely to interact with suspicious online offers, regardless of how attractive they might appear to be. Unfortunately, most users who install this adware are inexperienced, which is why they might have trouble identifying and removing TilDeal as a serious computer threat. Read more »

WhiteWindow is a totally useless application without any function at all; as a matter of fact, it has been categorized as an adware program by our malware specialists at Anti-Spyware-101.com. This application is only beneficial for its creators, who can make easy money by spreading their product and trying to make people click on the third-party ads it keeps displaying. These ads can be rather annoying and distracting, but that is not the biggest problem; they might also pose a threat to your system’s security. This adware is most likely to come in freeware bundles, which also hold certain dangers for your computer. All in all, our verdict is the same as in the case of all other adware applications: If you want to keep your PC clean, you should remove WhiteWindow right now. Read more »

As you can guess, we identify this suspicious browser add-on as an advertisement-supported program. At the moment, this add-on can be installed on Chrome and Firefox browsers, but our Anti-Spyware-101.com analysts believe that this adware could cross over to other platforms as well. Whichever browser was infected with this adware, you must remove DislikeOnFb, and our report will show you how. Read more »

If BuyTheApp were not a free application, we could tell you not to buy the app. But, instead, we tell you not to keep the app on your computer if it has infiltrated your system, because it is a potentially harmful adware program.
