The QuizScope software that users would find at Quizscope.com is promoted as 'an exciting horoscope portal that offers tons of free horoscopes.' Astrology fans may want to install the software and benefit from the best horoscope readings, engaging quizzes and fashion predictions. The users of QuizScope may want to access its premium content and be surprised by the abundance of the advertising content their browser loads every time they open a new tab page and have to close transitional promotions.
The truth is that the QuizScope software falls into the category of adware and may clutter your desktop with promotional materials while providing its premium content via third parties. The premium content by the QuizScope adware may be found on Astroved.com, Ask-oracle.com, and Astrolis.com that offer horoscopes for free. The QuizScope adware may install an add-on, extension, and Browser Helper Object on your computer to manipulate your default Internet client and display promotional materials. Computer experts note that the QuizScope adware may use inline Frames (iFrames) to show sponsored content on non-affiliated pages and welcome users to explore suspicious sites and shop on untrusted e-commerce platforms. The developers of the QuizScope adware value affiliate revenue over the user's security and you might be redirected to harmful domains. The QuizScope adware may use ActionScript to load video commercials on pop-under windows that may disturb your experience on YouTube. Moreover, the QuizScope adware may record your search terms on Google and Bing to cross-reference with promotional materials from sponsors and generate tailor-suited ads. The QuizScope adware works like Twinkle Star and may install its files in the hidden AppData folder to obstruct manual removal. Computer experts recommend users to install a reliable anti-spyware tool that can purge the QuizScope adware and prevent similar apps from being installed on your PC.
