How does DigitalCleaner work?
As mentioned previously, there are plenty of unreliable programs that users install willingly. They install these programs because they believe them to be beneficial and reliable. In fact, cyber criminals and virtual schemers rely on misleading interfaces and bogus promises to lure in their victims, and they are succeeding. For example, take DigitalCleaner. This program might be presented to users as a tool that can clean computers from junk files or even malware. This program could also be presented as a beneficial shopping assistant. Regardless of the presentation, this program always acts the same: It displays unreliable advertisements. This is the reason why we identify this good-for-nothing piece of software as an advertisement-supported program. The same goes for StreamX, SupermanCoupon, and other unreliable programs that were created using the same framework, Justplugit.
The fact that DigitalCleaner can enter your operating system using false information is scary enough, but we must not forget about third-party programs. Since this adware does not have an official downloader, it is spread by installers that can carry LightningDownloader (PUP or potentially unwanted program), Websearch.hotfindings.info (browser hijacker), and other suspicious programs. Even if these programs cannot introduce you to fictitious, corrupted, misleading advertisements, they can be just as unreliable. If you want to learn more about these infections, use our database to find articles about them. When it comes to DigitalCleaner, you need to delete it because of the security backdoors it can open up using misleading ads. On top of that, this threat was reported to collect personal information, and that is unforgivable.
