The Special Box software is classified by security analysts as adware that travels embedded with freeware installers and display marketing content in the web browsers of infected users. Web surfers may detect the Special Box adware as an add-on, an extension and a Browser Helper Object in their web client. The installation of freeware via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option often welcomes adware and Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs) on your PC. The Special Box adware can present you with banners, in-text hyperlinks to sponsors, pop-up and pop-under advertisement that may slow down your web browser. Moreover, ads by adware such as the Special Box may direct you to visit unsafe online locations where you could be exposed to attacks by hackers. The primary aim of the Special Box adware is to monetize clicks on ads for its developers, and it may track your online activities to generate tailor-suited ads. However, you can decide to boost your cyber defenses by installing a trusted anti-malware shield that can remove adware and PUPs.
