What is TorqueShip?

Do you install software based on the promises it makes rather than the third-party reviews? If you do, you might install TorqueShip without realizing that this advertisement-supported program is unreliable. Regardless of what kind of services this program might promise, you will be assured that they are beneficial and trustworthy, but the thing is that programs like this one can promise anything just to trick you into installing them. We know that bogus promises were employed by the clones of this adware as well. Some of these clones include GraphiteCommand, Dealsy, and MicroChallenger. Although we have created reports analyzing these programs individually, you can learn everything about them by reading this report. After all, these ad-supported programs are identical, and, if you learn how to remove TorqueShip, we are sure that you will be ready to face its clones.

How does TorqueShip work?

Some users will understand that TorqueShip does not work in a reliable manner just by finding that this program is offered along with other suspicious programs. Legitimate programs are usually distributed via official sites, and they are not bundled with unfamiliar software. Of course, not all users realize that it is risky to install unfamiliar software or execute software bundles. This carelessness might lead to infiltration by truly malicious programs. Although TorqueShip is a threat that you need to eliminate, there is no doubt that much more unreliable and dangerous programs exist in the wild. Unfortunately, if you have found this adware on your PC, it is almost a guarantee that other unreliable programs are active on your operating system as well. For example, you might encounter Websearch Hijackers (e.g., Websearch.hotsearches.info, Websearch.simple2search.info). Even though we do not want to brush off these programs, this report was created to discuss adware.

As soon as you install advertisement-supported programs onto your computer – whether or not they were developed using the Justplugit engine, like TorqueShip – they contact remote adware servers. These adware servers host online offers, and, without them, advertisement-supported programs would not function the way they are supposed to. Unfortunately, the adware servers associated with the program we are now discussing are very unpredictable, and it is possible that they will be employed to host malicious offers. This means that you could be exposed to unreliable deals, coupons, pop-ups, and all other kinds of online promotion. On top of that, these misleading offers could be extremely attractive because of the web cookies that could be installed to track your browsing history and let advertisers know what sort of content you are looking at.

How to delete TorqueShip

Undoubtedly, TorqueShip is not a program that deserves to be active on your operating system. We hope that you will realize this sooner rather than later, so that you can get rid of this ad-supported program before it exposes you to dangerous scams or misleading installers. Have you uninstalled this program from your operating system already? That is wonderful if you have because this is the first step you need to take to get rid of this unreliable adware. After this, make sure you delete leftover extensions (on Chrome and Firefox), files, tracking cookies, and other components. Once you are done with that, go ahead and remove the infections that were installed along with this adware. If all of this is too complicated for you, install a legitimate security tool to take care of your operating system’s security.
