BeachBall Jump adware is a type of malicious software that infects computers and displays intrusive and unwanted advertisements. It is categorized as adware because its primary purpose is to generate revenue for the attackers by displaying advertisements to users. BeachBall Jump adware is known for its aggressive and persistent nature, often bombarding users with numerous pop-up ads, banners, and other types of advertisements while browsing the internet.
BeachBall Jump typically infects computers through deceptive methods such as software bundling, where it is bundled with legitimate software and installed without the user’s knowledge or consent. It can also be downloaded from malicious websites or through malicious email attachments. Once installed, BeachBall Jump modifies the browser settings and injects its own code into web pages, allowing it to display advertisements. It may also collect user data and browsing habits to deliver targeted ads. Removing BeachBall Jump can be challenging as it often leaves behind traces and may reinstall itself if not completely eliminated.
