SideTerms Ads Image

SideTerms is considered adware. Once SideTerms enters the PC, it makes modifications to the targeted computer's settings and starts interrupting the computer user's browsing sessions with a variety of pop-up advertisements shown as coupons, offers and other deals. Web-links that are added into these notifications advertise websites that are linked to SideTerms. Computer users may think SideTerms ads will enhance their Internet experience by providing deals and coupons, but, basically, the ads are meant to promote certain websites. SideTerms is advertised on its official website (sideterms.com) and may be bundled with freeware. SideTerms may trace the computer user's browsing habits and lead to unwanted redirections to commercial websites.
