DraftFactor

DraftFactor

DraftFactor is a questionable desktop application that promises you sports feeds from your favorite teams; but what you may really be introduced to is potentially harmful third-party content and advertisements. Due to it functionality, our malware researchers at Anti-Spyware-101.com have classified it as an adware application. This program is quite suspicious since even its official installer seems to carry a number of malware infections and potentially unwanted programs as well. But we have found that no matter how this application sneaks onto your computer, it always involves other malware infections somehow. This adware has proved to be an identical clone of Job Knows, Weather Do, and FamilyGurus that have recently hit the web and infiltrated computers around the world. It is important to understand that the displayed third-party ads and promoted pages are not only annoying and distracting, but they may also present virtual security threats when engaged with. Therefore, you should remove DraftFactor right away and identify all other potential threat sources on your computer. Read more »

Travel Giga

Travel Giga

Our researchers warn users that Travel Giga is yet another adware that is very similar to BeautyBrilliant, BuiltMoneyMaker, etc. It appears that the application is yet another creation of Max Speedy (Fried Cookie Ltd) that is a company known to be a primary distributor of unwanted software. The program might show you ads or even open new browser windows and load unreliable web pages, so do not be surprised if it will show you a dating website or any other site that has nothing to do with travel offers. You should try to avoid such redirection because you might land on suspicious web pages that could be harmful to your computer. Since the program displays a whole other content than it promises, there are no reason to keep it on your system. If you scroll down, you will find removal instructions below the article.

Buzzdeal

Buzzdeal

Buzzdeal is a new extension that promises to display all the best deals for users in order to help them save money at different online stores. The extension even claims to be the “best shopping helper,” so it is not very surprising that 194, 866 users have already installed it from the Chrome Web Store. Yes, the extension seems to be completely reliable because it is available at the official Chrome store; however, nobody knows that it is available for download on other questionable third-party web pages, for instance, buzzdeal.club/lp/index-extlp.html as well. Actually, it is not very important whether you have downloaded this software from the Chrome Web Store or another source, we still suggest removing Buzzdeal from the system. We are sure that you will know everything about the deletion of suspicious extensions after reading through this report prepared by specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com. Read more »

Siapaduakmuefv

Siapaduakmuefv

StrataBeauty

StrataBeauty

StrataBeauty is promoted as an application dedicated to providing you with tips and articles on beauty-related topics, but it is much more than that and not in a good way. We recommend that you remove it from your computer because it is an ad-supported application whose only purpose is to subject you to promotional links and advertisements. Its developers get paid for their services and, from what we know, they do not shy away from promoting malicious content. Even if it does not promote malicious content, it is still useless because apart from showing you ads it does not do anything else. Read more »

DietRunner

DietRunner

If you are on a diet, you might also want to download and install DietRunner on your system because this application promises to enable users to control their diets. In addition, it promises to provide useful tips. Even though this program seems to be quite beneficial, we do not think that it is a very good idea to allow it to enter the system because it is known to be an adware program and we are not sure whether it is really going to act in a useful way. If you have installed this program but noticed that it is completely useless, you should not hesitate to delete it from the system. There is no doubt that you will find and install a more useful application instead of DietRunner. You can find more information on the removal of this unreliable software in this article.
