Awesome-Promos Ads

By GoldSparrow in Adware

The Awesome-Promos pop-up advertisements that users are presented within their browser are generated by an adware-powered application on their PC. The Awesome-Promos commercials may be facilitated by a plug-in, Browser Helper Object, add-on and an extension that was attached to your Internet client after installing a freeware bundle. The Awesome-Promos adware functions similarly to GetSavin and FineDealSoft and may collect non-personally identifiable information about your browsing habits like recently typed keywords on Google and Bing, visited sites and what Internet content you prefer to engage in. That information may be sent by Awesome-Promos to the servers of advertisers for analysis, and you could be presented with tailor-suited commercials. Moreover, the Awesome-Promos adware may attempt to earn pay-per-install revenue by promoting applications like CinemaPro and NetData that are deemed as riskware. As stated above, the Awesome-Promos adware is specialized in displaying pop-up windows but users may experience transitional full-page ads and in-text hyperlinks to services as well. The Awesome-Promos adware may decrease your Web browser performance and may affect Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox. The Awesome-Promos adware may have placed its files in the hidden AppData directory to avoid security scans and raising suspicion and users may not be able to remove it manually. Fortunately, you could use a trusted anti-malware tool to eliminate the Awesome-Promos adware securely.
