Security analysts have reported that VeberGreat is a Potentially Unwanted Program. VeberGreat is marketed as a useful Web browser add-on. However, VeberGreat has all the characteristics of an adware infection. VeberGreat is specifically used to deliver numerous advertisements to victims' Web browser. VeberGreat also has the capacity to hijack the victim's Web browser, making unwanted changes to its default settings and forcing it to visit websites associated with VeberGreat repeatedly. Despite the marketing hype, VeberGreat does not deliver a useful service and using VeberGreat is definitely not worth the trouble of allowing this PUP to interfere with your Web browser. Security researchers strongly advise that computer users avoid installing VeberGreat on their Web browser. Computer users that have already installed VeberGreat should use a strong anti-malware program to remove VeberGreat completely and ensure that VeberGreat advertisements and redirects have not exposed their computer to potentially unreliable online content.

Advertisements and Sponsored Content that You Do not Ask For Can Be a Nuisance

VeberGreat is used to profit at your expense. There are several ways in which marketers do this, but the main tactic involves using VeberGreat to expose computer users to a large number of advertisements and sponsored content. VeberGreat may take over the affected Web browser, ensuring that its affiliated websites are set as the affected Web browser's homepage and default search engine. VeberGreat may also cause the affected Web browser to visit these types of Web pages repeatedly and deliver a constant, uninterrupted stream of disruptive pop-up advertisements and other types of irritating advertisement content.

Removing VeberGreat from a Computer

If you are experiencing advertisements and browser redirects associated with VeberGreat, security researchers strongly advise the immediate removal of this PUP. Although VeberGreat may be uninstalled using normal software removal methods, its advertisements and redirects may expose your computer to unsafe online content. Because of this, malware researchers recommend the use of a proven and updated anti-malware tool to scan the computer once VeberGreat has been uninstalled. Prevent future infections by avoiding Web browser add-ons like VeberGreat and being careful when installing freeware, often bundled with components like VeberGreat.
