Online Security adware is a type of malicious software that displays unwanted advertisements on a computer. These ads can be highly intrusive and disruptive, appearing as pop-ups, banners, or even redirecting users to other websites. Online Security adware is typically distributed through deceptive methods, such as bundled with freeware or shareware programs, or through malicious websites.
Online Security infects computers by tricking users into downloading and installing the adware onto their systems. This can happen when users click on malicious links, download infected files, or unknowingly agree to install the adware while installing legitimate software. Once installed, Online Security can track users’ browsing habits, collect personal information, and display targeted ads based on the data it gathers. In addition to being annoying, Online Security adware can also compromise the security and privacy of the infected computer.
