Quiz Games is a browser add-on, compatible with most modern Windows-based browsers. This browser add-on is promoted as a helpful tool to enhance your online experience. In reality, Quiz Games is nothing more than another advertisement platform. Quiz Games is distributed via the popular and polarizing practice of software bundles. In most cases, users are oblivious to the fact that additional software has been installed on their machine. Once on the computer, Quiz Games will attach itself to your browser(s) and start peddling advertisements. Soon enough, your browsing sessions will be filled with ads and pop-ups, promoting a variety of products. The ads promoted by Quiz Games may expose your computer to threats. Suffice to say, clicking on any ads promoted by Quiz Games is an ill-advised idea. Furthermore, Quiz Games may modify your browser settings, replacing your homepage and default search engine. The search engine queries display skewed data, favoring sponsored links and advertisements. Due to its propagation method, low utility and potentially dangerous habits, Quiz Games is classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) with adware capabilities. If you detect Quiz Games on your computer and you do not want its features, you should take action to remove it.

Digital Signatures
Digital Signatures
This section lists digital signatures that are attached to samples within this family. When analyzing and verifying digital signatures, it is important to confirm that the signature’s root authority is a well-known and trustworthy entity and that the status of the signature is good. Malware is often signed with non-trustworthy “Self Signed” digital signatures (which can be easily created by a malware author with no verification). Malware may also be signed by legitimate signatures that have an invalid status, and by signatures from questionable root authorities with fake or misleading “Signer” names.| Signer | Root | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Lavasoft Software Canada Inc. | Entrust Root Certification Authority - G2 | Hash Mismatch |
| UBISOFT ENTERTAINMENT INC. | Microsoft Identity Verification Root Certificate Authority 2020 | Root Not Trusted |
