A program named EnumeratorConnectivity that you can find when browsing the Internet was created with the sole purpose of delivering numerous, unwanted advertisements to its visitors. Security researchers concluded that EnumeratorConnectivity belongs to the AdLoad adware family, due to numerous similarities among its modus operandi and other members of this ever-growing family.

Security experts are totally against the presence of an adware application on the system, since it may cause numerous, unwanted consequences. An adware application usually generates unwanted advertisements that could prevent the computer user from having a satisfying and productive experience on the device. These advertisements can lead to unsafe websites, phishing pages, adult content pages, or pages that use social engineering tactics and clickbait. The advertisements also can promote PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) posing as legitimate applications that, when inside the machine can install additional adware, PUPs, browser hijackers and even threats.

Another negative consequence of an adware presence is that it can collect numerous data types from the system and transmit them to its handlers. Therefore, if you are aware that an adware program is on your system causing unwelcomed consequences, you can get rid of it easily, by letting a malware removal tool scan your machine and remove the adware program and any other dubious applications housed on it.
