DislikeOnFB is a bogus web browser extension that relies on stealth installations for its distribution. Many users may find DislikeOnFB in their list of installed web browser extensions despite the fact that they have no memories of agreeing to install this application. As you probably may tell by the name, DislikeOnFB is a web browser extension that supposedly allows the user to dislike posts on Facebook. Some PC users might see this as a handy feature, but they'll be disappointed to hear that DislikeOnFB doesn't work, and there is no way to dislike someone's post on Facebook. But what does DislikeOnFB do if it doesn't let you dislike posts?

Computer security experts classify DislikeOnFB as a low-level adware threat because of its ability to inject advertisements in web browsers. The extension is compatible with major web browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer so millions of users may some day see the annoying DislikeOnFB ads. The advertisements displayed by the extension may vary in terms of type and content, so it is possible that users might be exposed to harmful or disturbing content being distributed via the DislikeOnFB ads. DislikeOnFB is software that you don't need, so if you have it on your computer you should remove it with the help of a potent anti-malware application.
