Adblock Master

The AdBlock Master is a browser add-on reportedly designed to improve your browsing experience by blocking unwanted and intrusive Web advertisements. After all, that's what every ad blocker is supposed to do, and that's why PC users would gladly accept to install one.

However, there have been reports that there may be more to the AdBlock Master than meets the eye. Instead of keeping annoying web advertisements at bay, it appears to be generating loads and loads of questionable pop-ups, weblinks and all sorts of promoted stuff. Such features turn AdBlock Master into a potentially unwanted adware piece from a desirable adblocker. Albeit relatively harmless, adware tools such as AdBlock Master may often slow down your PC. They also may redirect you to potentially malware-laden sites or breach your online privacy, ultimately performing actions they are not supposed to be capable of.

The reason why adware programs like AdBlock Master bombard PC users with advertisements is often as clear as daylight. They rely on paid advertising to bring their clients as many customers as possible. AdBlock Master's clients are the websites it promotes in Web advertisements and page redirects.

AdBlock Master often comes as a drive-by download, i.e., when you download a software bundle containing a popular program along with a few less popular software pieces. Users who go for a complete bundle installation are most susceptible to unwanted adware on their PCs. Selecting software components one by one in a custom installation mode may reduce such risks to a minimum, as long as you download software from the official website of the respective vendor rather than use third-party bundles.

The AdBlock Master and other popular adware tools are generally reluctant to disappear from your system, even if you follow the uninstallation process step by step. Running a reputable anti-malware solution is a far easier option, and we urge our customers to go that route.
