What is Pink Lemonade Extension?
Pink Lemonade Extension is an extension as useless as they get. That is, it is useless for Chrome users. Anti-Spyware-101.com research team has found the code of this potentially unwanted program (PUP) to be completely obfuscated, which means that it is impossible to know what exact function it serves. Unfortunately, the official download source does not provide users with any useful information either, and we discuss this further in the report. All in all, this report was created to show you how to remove Pink Lemonade Extension from your operating system, and if you move to the last part, you will learn exactly what needs to be done to have this PUP eliminated completely. If that is all you care about, this is the part you need to focus on. If you are curious about this mysterious extension, we have some information about it too. You should be particularly interested if you do not fully understand why you should focus on deleting this extension.
How does Pink Lemonade Extension work?
If the suspicious Pink Lemonade Extension is now installed on your Google Chrome web browser, the chances are that you have let it in via a software bundle. Since this extension does not promote itself in an attractive manner, it must come attached to something more desirable and attractive. In many cases, software bundles are used to promote and distribute unreliable or malicious programs, which is why it is very important to determine how exactly the PUP got in. If other pieces are involved, inspect them at once to determine whether or not they are malicious and must be deleted. Of course, it is unlikely that other threats or PUPs have been bundled along with Pink Lemonade Extension if you installed it from the official download page http://salk.me/. This page offers an installer originally found on the Chrome web store at chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pink-lemonade/khkcgpbajgkfmkilijbhfinfeapcannh. The official download page is useless as it provides no information, and the Chrome web store page informs that pink lemonade is a classic drink that can be made in variety of ways. Obviously, none of this makes sense, and so you should not install the extension, and if you already have, remove it ASAP.
According to the Privacy Policy that supports Pink Lemonade Extension (you can find it at salk.me/policy), the creator of this potentially unwanted program can collect personally identifiable information. Obviously, that is not what you want, but if you do not review the Privacy Policy, you are unlikely to notice that. This is proof that familiarizing yourself with all available information is very important. At the time of research, the Chrome web store installer had 5,234 downloads, and it was found that the PUP was mostly discovered in Brazil, India, Chile, Italy, and South Korea. Considering that this PUP has been created a few weeks ago, the dispersion rate is quite vast, and it is possible that the extension will spread further. Overall, regardless of where you live or how the PUP is introduced to you, you must stay away from it. Of course, you should delete Pink Lemonade Extension if it has already found its way into your operating system.
