BasicDesktop

By GoldSparrow in Adware

The BasicDesktop tool is an application compatible with OSX. This Mac utility is nothing more than an adware program, so it is not recommended to install it on your computer.

When the BasicDesktop adware program is active on a Mac computer, it will make sure to inject advertisements on every Web page that the user visits. Having such an increased number of advertisements on the sites that you visit is likely to result in a diminishing browsing quality. This is because adware programs are likely to display advertisements, which may overlay certain parts of the site you are viewing. The advertisements related to the activity of the BasicDesktop program may come in the shape of hyperlinks in articles and descriptions, flashing banners, alerts, pop-up windows, and others. Adware programs are known to work with shady advertisement agencies, so you may end up seeing advertisements for unsafe and low-quality services and products.

If the BasicDesktop adware program is installed on your Mac, it is advisable to remove it sooner rather than later. You can do this with the help of a legitimate, modern anti-virus application that is compatible with your OSX.
