AnciEllipen is a type of adware that infects computers by displaying unwanted and intrusive advertisements on the user’s screen. This adware can redirect users to malicious websites, track their online activities, and collect personal information without their consent. AnciEllipen typically comes bundled with freeware or shareware programs that users download from the internet, and once installed, it can be difficult to remove.
One common way AnciEllipen infects computers is through software bundling, where it is included as an additional component in a legitimate program’s installation package. When users install the program, they unknowingly also install AnciEllipen adware on their system. Additionally, AnciEllipen can also spread through malicious websites, phishing emails, and fake software updates. Once installed, AnciEllipen can slow down the computer’s performance, display pop-up ads, and redirect users to potentially harmful websites, posing a security risk to the user’s personal data and online privacy.
