ClickPotato (or Click Potato) is an annoying Adware Program that bombards computer users with advertisements to download pirated movies. The downloads are corrupt and may contain malware. Click Potato can also send valuable personal information to malicious third parties. ClickPotato embeds itself into the compromised system as a Browser Helper Object (BHO), making it difficult to remove manually. Click Potato will eventually try and convince the oblivious PC user to purchase a dysfunctional anti-adware program to solve the problems it created.
