ElectroLyrics is categorized as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). Commonly, these types of threats are installed as Web browser add-ons or extensions designed to be responsible for unwanted symptoms on the computer user's PC. While they are often installed by the computer users themselves, these types of infections may also be a consequence of another threat. For example, ElectroLyrics infections may be associated with other threats that download and install ElectroLyrics on the user's computer. However, the most common way in which ElectroLyrics enters a computer is after installing a free application that is bundled with these types of PUPs. Malware analysts strongly recommend that computer users remove ElectroLyrics if their computer is showing symptoms of this type of infection. A reliable anti-malware program should be used to ensure that no risky content has been installed as a consequence of an ElectroLyrics infection.
