What is LowerPrice?

LowerPrice is an ad-supported program that has been recently rolled out by the infamous JustPlugIt Ltd. Our researchers suggest that you remove this program not only because it is an obnoxious piece of software, but also because it is likely to promote other adware applications and similar malware. In fact, all of its promotions should be viewed with suspicion, because they come from unspecified third-party sources. Please read this short description about this program. It contains a lot of useful information that will shed light on its seemingly harmless activities. We have also included a removal guide in case you do not know how to uninstall a program. test

Where does LowerPrice come from?

JustPlugIt Ltd is, as always, at the forefront of the adware market as it releases so many of them. It is very popular among shady advertisers, because this developer gives its clients next to full control of an adware program, so the advertisers can promote anything they see fit. This negligence opens up opportunities for very dishonest advertisers to promote shady websites and possibly malicious software. Our researcher have found that LowerPrice the same tactics that are most often employed by this developer. JustPlugIt is known to use Amonetize and Vittalia installers that contain software bundles packed with potentially unwanted programs and adware, and other shady applications and put them up for download as fake download buttons on torrent websites. So we suggest you to be more careful when browsing through unfamiliar websites that contain various downloads.

How does LowerPrice work?

Surprisingly, LowerPrice has its very own promotional website. This website features a lot of useful information if you know where to look. Its website claims that this program has been created with the intention of helping you save money. However, this is untrue, since this program’s real purpose is to generate advertising revenue by flooding your browser with various promotional links, pop-ups, coupons, and so on. LowerPrice may collect information about your browsing habits in order to display tailored ads. The collected information includes but is not limited to browsing history, IP address, approximate geographical location, and browser settings. Apart from helping show tailored ads the information is used to improve the software and its services, improve customer support, and so on. So its use is very vague and undefined.

Our main argument for getting rid of LowerPrice is that it is likely to sponsor unreliable third-party websites, and also promote various potentially unwanted programs that come as web browsers, PC optimizers, and so on. It may also promote other adware applications calling the shopping improvers and whatnot. The bottom line is that this program’s promotions are undesirable, so we invite you to take action.

LowerPrice comes from an unreliable adware developer that uses deceptive distribution methods. It displays third-party ads of unreliable nature and can collect non-personal information about you. So all things considered, LowerPrice should be deleted without hesitation.
