What is Selection Tools?
Computer users who are aware of how malware works should not have much trouble identifying Selection Tools as a threat. This program injects ads into the pages visited, and it would be foolish to assume that these ads are trustworthy. Of course, it is impossible to say that this program is 100% malicious and can only display unreliable ads, but it is very likely that it will inject unreliable ads. This is why all computer users dealing with this program are advised to delete it. Unfortunately, the removal of Selection Tools is not the biggest issue that computer users encounter. This adware is always bundled with other programs, and these programs might be unreliable and undesirable as well.

How does Selection Tools work?
Selection Tools does not have many different functions, but they are important. This program was designed to profile you, to learn how you browse the web, and to introduce you to ads that you are likely to click on. In short, this program is an advertising tool, and it can be used in a questionable manner. Are you familiar with the parties associated with the creator of this program, WTools? We are not, but we have to consider that malicious parties could be involved. If that was the case, you could be introduced to highly malicious and unreliable suggestions and recommendations. If you look at the example below, you will see a pop-up introduced by Selection Tools that offers to install an update for Java software. This pop-up is misleading and represents a software bundle that can be used to promote unreliable third-party programs, possibly including malware as well.

MyPCBackup and Optimizer Pro are potentially unwanted programs that computer users often find attached to Selection Tools. These programs can be introduced via the same bundle, and many users choose to download all free programs that they come across. Obviously, this is not a good idea because malware can be introduced as reliable freeware as well. Needless to say, it can be extremely dangerous to download malware onto your computer, so you have to do whatever it takes to avoid this. Some users think that it is enough to be careful to avoid malware attacks, but the truth is that schemers are extremely smart, and they can figure out a way to infect a system that is not protected.
