BestAdBlocker is an unreliable program that attaches itself to Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox as an add-on and Internet Explorer as a Browser Helper Object. As the name suggests, it is described as a helpful tool that can block the annoying ads. As you may expect, BestAdBlocker doesn't accomplish this task and, ironically, creates ads itself. The Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) includes two .dll files, created on the Crossrider cross-browser platform ‒ qwinyhnkmoqcur.dll and 7rqr10trtfwl31.dll. BestAdBlocker can significantly modify the configuration of the browser ‒ the user may notice different home page and search provider. In addition, the adware inserts plenty of ads such as popping up messages and banners. All of this is done in an attempt to bring the user to sponsored pages. As nothing can confirm that the third-party sites are safe, clicking on the ads is not advisable. When you take in mind that BestAdBlocker tries to benefit its developers and often annoys the users, you may want to remove it.
