Computer users that have financial resources at their disposal and wish to utilize it for the betterment of their fellow humans may encounter the CharityTools browser plug-in when installing free programs like MyWordTool and OneClick. The CharityTools browser plug-in may claim to allow users to help their local community and charities by making donations at set intervals of time and when shopping online at affiliate stores. Unfortunately, the CharityTools plug-in is not a trusted application and is classified as an adware that should not be allowed to access your finances. Security investigators report that the CharityTools adware is very similar to Donation Reminder and CWA Donation Slider. The CharityTools adware may lead users to believe that they are helping orphans and homeless citizens while earning a considerable amount of affiliate marketing revenue for its developers.
The CharityTools adware may install a side panel on your browser and use it to load promotions, discounts and coupons from merchants. The CharityTools adware may welcome users to provide personally identifiable information like credit card number, social security number, email address, P.O. Box and phone number to stay up-to-date with offers from vendors and campaigns that take place. The CharityTools adware is not associated with noble initiatives like JustGiving.com and Donate.CharityWater.org, and you might want to avoid installing it. The developers of the CharityTools adware are not likely to provide users with the option to contact them and provide feedback as well as hinder legal prosecution. The CharityTools adware should not be tolerated considering the nature of its activity, and you could use a trustworthy anti-spyware instrument to delete it completely.
