My Web Shield Ads

The My Web Shield program is offered as a cyber security shield to users that do a lot of online shopping and prefer to manage their finances by using a Web panel. The My Web Shield program is promoted to include a parental filter and allow parents to specify a list of pages that their children can open while on the PC. The My Web Shield program can be found at Mywebshield.com. My Web Shield is published as freeware and users may find it in the company of other freeware such as Accelimize and LiveSupport. The My Web Shield may be listed as a browser plug-in in your 'Control Panel' and it may run as a startup process in the MSCONFIG utility. Security analysts note that the My Web Shield software is supported by advertisers. Users that installed the software are likely to be shown video commercials and promotional images on an hourly basis. Advertising modules may be displayed on your screen as banners, pop–ups, pop-unders, coupons, price comparison, in-line text and ad-boxes.

M scanners detect the My Web Shield program as Riskware/NetFilter, Trj/CI.A and Win32/Virus.Adware.289. The My Web Shield application appears to be a revamped build of NetFilter that works similarly to the Web Surf Shield and the Shield Safe Search. The My Web Shield application might prevent users from switching tabs to focus their attention on limited time offers and ongoing promotions. Additionally, the My Web Shield program may close other apps you opened to welcome users to complete a survey and win a monetary prize. The developers of the My Web Shield software do not reveal who are their sponsors and users may be shown corrupted advertisements. Security experts recommend removing the My Web Shield program by using a trusted anti-spyware solution.
