Signs that you’re infected with adware
March 27th, 2008
The most noticeable thing about adware is (obviously) its tendency to display annoying pop-up ads every few minutes. Of course, you can also get pop up ads just by going to websites. So how do you know if it’s adware on your machine that’s causing them?
Keep in mind that some sites are never going to bombard you with ads. Let’s say you go to Google, and when you go there, you get a pop up. Then when you do a search, instead of giving you results for what you searched for, it bombards you with ads for viagra instead. Google is NOT going to do stuff like this. So if this happens to you, it’s a sure-fire sign that you are infected with adware.
How can you get spyware off your machine so you never have to deal with it again? Simple. Just get a good Spyware Cleaner to do it for you.
