What is SharkShopper?
SharkShopper is a browser extension which may be found active on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and the older versions of Google Chrome browsers. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com virtual security experts identify SharkShopper as an advertisement-supported program, or adware, because of the activity related to it. If the program enters the operating system and affects the browsers, it will communicate to remote adware servers to enable the placement of various advertisements. You may be introduced to suspicious pop-ups and banners when visiting online shopping sites, initiating web-searches, or browsing the web in other ways. These ads are not only intrusive but also unreliable, and so we recommend that you remove SharkShopper from your PC. You can learn more about the process by reading our report.

How does SharkShopper work?
Even though SharkShopper travels bundled with unreliable programs, it rarely enters an operating system illegally and without authorization. Of course, because the application is not available from the official website sharkshopper.info, you can expect it to show up with other applications. SharkShopper comes from the family of adware that infamously travels bundled with highly unreliable and risky programs. DownSavie, ShopDiscounts, TicTacCoupon, and other SharkShopper clones that must also be deleted may be introduced to you by third party installers (e.g., Installrex or Amonetize). According to our research, these installers may be executed after clicking on fake download buttons found on sites supporting cyber piracy. Needless to say, you must delete SharkShopper and then remove all programs which have been installed alongside. Even if the installed applications appear to be reliable, you should delete them without any hesitation.
Many computer users postpone SharkShopper removal because they trust that the program will present reliable promo discounts and coupons. Instead of presenting reliable offers that could help you save money, this application is much more likely to display worthless sponsored links which may be employed to boost traffic to unreliable sites, and route you to sites possibly linked to virtual scams. Even though not all SharkShopper users would face these risks, you must not ignore them. We believe that the best thing you can do is delete the advertisement-supported program, and remove the related malware.
