Ads by Quick Weather Updates may surprise users who often install freeware via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option. The Quick Weather Updates software is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) with adware capabilities similar to SevereWeatherAlerts, Weather It Up and Free Weather Forecast. The Quick Weather Updates program is reported by users to display many banners and show pop-ups that obstruct users from browsing websites until they are closed. Also, the Quick Weather Updates program might bypass any adblockers on your computer and serve you ads by sponsors. Needless to say, the Quick Weather Updates may prove quite annoying and use tracking cookies to make its ads more appealing and relevant to you searches on Google and visited websites. You may want to keep in mind that the Quick Weather Updates app may offer you to install riskware like SystemPreserver and Video Buzz that can slow down your computer and display video advertisements while you surf the Web. Security researchers add that the Quick Weather Updates app may appear as a browser plugin and have an entry on the 'Programs and Features' list of 'Control Panel'. Although, PUPs like Quick Weather Updates rarely have a functional uninstaller, and you may wish to use a reliable anti-spyware utility to remove its files.
