What is Isasus?
Isasus is a despicable browser extension that we have classified as adware because it has been configured to show pop-up advertizements while you browse the web. Needless to say, its ads can be intrusive and annoying. However, some of them can be misleading as well and redirect you to websites of questionable legitimacy. Therefore, we recommend that you remove this extension as soon as possible. If you want to find out more about it, then please read this article that is dedicated to this particular application. In it, we will discuss how this program is distributed, how it works, and how you can get rid of it easily.
Where does Isasus come from?
This program was discovered only recently, but some of its distribution methods have already been terminated. Our malware analysts have concluded that the main distribution website Sloix.com used to feature its download is currently down, so that is minus one distribution channel. Researchers say that this program used to be featured on the Chrome Web Store where it, apparently, passed on as a legitimate program. The good news is that it has since been removed from the store. Nevertheless, we believe that it is not the end of this program. Researchers have received information that certain freeware distributing websites can bundle this extension with their featured applications. As a result, the installers can install Isasus on your PC automatically when installing the main application. The installers may or may not allow you to deselect its installation and might not even disclose its presence. Hence, in some cases, this program can be installed on your browser by default.
What does Isasus do?
Isasus used to be promoted as an application to let you start trading binary options and, thus, earn money. However, it does nothing of the sort and its claims to do that is just part of its deceptive marketing campaign. When you install this extension, it states that it can “read and change all your data on the websites you visit.” However, it does not disclose that it changes the data by injecting advertizements into the websites visited. Our researchers say that this application shows ads in the form of pop-ups that are opened at random on top of the main window. As a result, the pop-pups hinder the browsing experience as they take much of the space on the screen. In some cases, the pop-ups can be opened in full-screen.
Isasus is deceptive because it does not disclose that its real purpose is to serve you commercial advertizements. Furthermore, you cannot be sure if the advertizements you see are safe to click because you cannot know what advertizers work with the developers of Isasus. Researchers say that it is possible that this program can show you misleading advertizements that can contain malicious content that can jeopardize your computer’s security. You may be redirected to phishing websites or sites that feature malware. On top of that, it may even promote fake online shopping websites. Therefore, you should not trust the pop-ups supplied by this extension and, because of that, we recommend that you get rid of it.
How do I remove Isasus?
Our researchers have proven that Isasus is nothing more than an adware-type browser extension designed to show you annoying commercial ads while you browse the web. This application is unnecessary and annoying, so if you want to delete it so to keep your PC safe from malicious content, we invite you to make use of the removal guide featured below this article.
