The EarnSale binary is perceived by security researchers as adware infection that pushes a torrent of marketing content in the web browser. The EarnSale adware has functionality similar to the E-shop and the Hot Deals adware that pretend to offer exclusive offers, but their objective is to monetize on ads. The EarnSale adware may attach a Browser Helper Object to Internet Explorer, an add-on to Mozilla Firefox and an extension to Google Chrome as an instrument to display ads. The advertisements from the EarnSale adware may take the form of banners and pop-up advertisements that may contain targeted marketing content based on your browsing history and preferred websites. The EarnSale adware may decrease the productivity of your web browser, and the ads by EarnSale may not be safe because third parties can use adware for malvertising. Computer users may want to consider using a trusted anti-malware utility to scan and protect their system.
