PUP.FriedCookie

PUP.FriedCookie is classified as a Possibly Unwanted program due to some problems its presence may cause to the affected computer. PUP.FriedCookie was developed by Thawte, Inc. a company based in Tel Aviv, Israel. PUP.FriedCookie is linked to an adware that displays numerous and intrusive advertisements. These advertisements may be helpful when the computer user is online shopping, but since PUP.FriedCookie is a Possibly Unwanted Program, PUP.FriedCookie may not be worth all the problems PUP.FriedCookie may cause to the affected machine.
