Filex Ads

By GoldSparrow in Adware

Filex isn't a dangerous piece of software, but installing it may cause a few changes to the way your computer behaves, and it may have a huge impact on your web browsing experience. The Filex application has been classified as adware by our certified security researchers, so users who install Filex may be disturbed by a large number of ads that may infiltrate their web browsers thanks to this application. The Filex adware can't cause any harm, but its behavior is certainly annoying, and the appearance of so many advertisements may result in poor computer performance, web browser crashes, computer hanging up and other minor issues.

The Filex adware may be introduced to your computer without your knowledge. You may be surprised to learn that malicious applications aren't the only ones that may attempt to drop files on your computer automatically. The Filex adware isn't malicious, but its installation may be cleverly disguised, and many users might unknowingly accept to install this application when they are installing another piece of software. Filex may be bundled with freeware like PDF readers, media players and codec packs, so users who often use free software are advised to pay more attention to the installation instructions. If you see offers to install 3rd-party apps like Filex, it is recommended to decline it since software distributed via software bundles may be classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program, adware, toolbar or browser hijacker.
