Security researchers perceive EasyVid Video Converter as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) because users that installed the program report an abundance of ads in their web browser. The EasyVid Video Converter app by EasySoft, Inc. offers users to convert media files for free, but users will have to tolerate numerous banners, pop-up ads and contextual commercials in their browser. Moreover, the setup file of EasyVid Video Converter is created with the InstallCore technology that may have been used to bundle EasyVid Video Converter with adware. As mentioned above, EasyVid Video Converter is ad-supported, and it may use an extension, a Browser Helper Object, and an add-on to show ads in your web browser. Additionally, EasyVid Video Converter collects data like your IP address, web browser version, OS type, Internet connection and OS language in order to help its advertisers personalize the marketing materials provided to you. The EasyVid Video Converter app can be downloaded as a stand-alone installer, or you can encounter it in freeware packages under the 'Advanced' or 'Custom' option listed as an extra tool. The behavior of EasyVid Video Converter may not be approved by many computer users, and you might want to remove it from your PC by using a reliable anti-spyware tool.
