OpportunityTerminal is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) that targets Mac computers. It is classified as adware and is designed to display intrusive advertisements, redirect web traffic, and collect user data for advertising purposes. OpportunityTerminal often gets installed on Mac systems without the user’s consent through software bundling or deceptive marketing tactics.
Once OpportunityTerminal infects a Mac, it can modify browser settings, inject unwanted ads into web pages, and track the user’s online activities. It may also cause browser slowdowns, crashes, and overall system instability. To avoid getting infected with OpportunityTerminal, users should be cautious when downloading software from unknown sources and always opt for custom installation to deselect any additional programs that may come bundled with the desired software. Additionally, installing reputable antivirus software and keeping it updated can help prevent unwanted programs like OpportunityTerminal from infiltrating a Mac system.
