What is Next Program?

Next Program is an adware application that will cause you a few headaches until you eventually remove it.

Where does Next Program come from?

Usually, when we want to download a program, we go to its official website and click the download button. This is what you can expect from official and reliable applications. Despite the fact that Next Program has an official website, it does nothing to contribute to its distribution.

The website is located at nextprogramapp.com. It looks like the site is just a hoax that has been created to convince stray users that Next Program is a reliable application. The page is very generic, and it does not even have a download button. The only way to get the program through the official website is to contact its creators through the given form.

Therefore, we believe that this application employs other methods of distribution to spread around the web. One of the most common ways for adware to hop from one computer to another is bundled software. Bundled software is available for download from file-sharing websites. Usually, these sites host third party installers that contain more than one application. Users seldom know that, and they download the installer with the intention to set up only one program. However, if they skip through the installation wizard, then the likes of Next Program get installed on the computer as well. Sooner, rather than later, you will be assaulted by multiple pop-up ads that will impede your web browsing experience.

This type of behavior is common to most of the adware applications, not to mention that Next Program comes from a huge group of adware programs that are based on the Injekt engine. These programs are said to be similar to the SuperWeb family applications, and there are countless clones that function just like the program in question. Next Program is yet another version of High Stairs, Triangle Trail, Deals Avenue, Sale Charger, and so on.

What does Next Program do?

The official website claims that the application can improve your web browsing experience, but it is very doubtful. After all, the only reason it enters your computer is money. Luckily, Next Program cannot steal your money directly, nor it is able to log your key strokes and the like. Yet, the application can still employ tracking cookies to collect information on what websites you visit and what you usually search for online.

Later on, the information is processed, and Next Program ends up generating customized pop-ups with content that is usually related to your most recent web searches. This is how the application tries to convince you to click the pop-ups because if you do, you will generate money for the adware’s creators.

Unfortunately, you will get nothing in return because the program does not award those who help it make a profit. On the contrary, it is possible to get infected with malware if the application is exploited by cyber criminals. After all, Next Program does not check whether the information it promotes is reliable or not. In fact, it does not even care because third party content is not covered by its privacy policy. Thus, if cyber criminals decide to embed their own links into the ads, Next Program would not be legally liable for that.

As a result, in the worst case scenario, you could end up getting infected with Trojans, ransomware, rogue antispyware, and other dangerous threats. This could result in a complete computer lockout, financial theft, and a system shutdown. It is hard to believe that everything can start with a simple adware invasion, but you should never underestimate it.
