The WikiTime browser enhancer that you might see incorporated with freeware bundles may claim to deliver fast and accurate definitions from Wikipedia and other knowledge sourced on the Internet. However, the WikiTime browser enhancer will not act as promised because it is adware and is programmed to show an abundance of ads in your Internet browser. The WikiTime adware falls in the same niche like Mainonta and Knowledge Gains and may cover your screen with ads. Security analysts note that the WikiTime adware places its files in the Temp folder and may install an updater module in the AppData folder of Windows. The WikiTime adware is programmed to show persistent ads, and you may see banners, coupons, discounts and merchandise promotions over the native ads on pages you visit. Moreover, the WikiTime adware may use pop-up and pop-under windows to welcome you to install software like Phrase Professor and Highlightly that could crash your browser and load more ads. Security analysts report that the WikiTime adware may attempt to change your default search engine to Malah.net that is associated with a browser hijacker to claim affiliate revenue. Users that are infected with the WikiTime adware are not advised to click on its ads because they may be redirected to harmful domains where your PC security could be breached via vulnerabilities in your browser. Additionally, the WikiTime adware might record your recently entered search terms on Google and read information like your browser history and bookmarks to facilitate the display of customized advertisements. As stated above, the WikiTime adware has an updater module that may be used by its creators to install more adware on your PC. You may want to address the WikiTime adware by using a trusted anti-spyware solution and prevent security breaches and stability issues with your system.
