Unrented.app is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) that typically infects Mac computers through bundled software downloads or deceptive advertising. Once installed, Unrented.app may display intrusive pop-up ads, redirect web traffic to sponsored websites, and track users’ browsing activities to gather personal information for targeted advertising.
Unrented.app may also modify browser settings, such as the homepage and default search engine, without the user’s consent. Additionally, it may slow down the performance of the infected Mac and cause browser crashes or freezes. To avoid getting infected by Unrented.app, users should be cautious when downloading software from unfamiliar sources and always opt for custom installation to deselect any additional programs that may be bundled with the desired software.
