An abundance of ads by Pine Tree might appear in your web browser when you install freeware bundles via the "Express' o 'Typical' option. Security experts note that the Pine Tree adware functions as a private marketing platform for adware developers that earn pay-per-click revenue through their product. The Pine Tree adware can clutter your web browser with banners, pop-ups, ad boxes and in-text hyperlinks and prevent you from enjoyable online experience. The Pine Tree adware may appear in your 'Programs and Features' list in 'Control Panel' of Windows, and it may insert a registry key to ensure its auto-start with your OS. Additionally, the ads by Pine Tree may not be secure because the adware's primary objective is to monetize clicks not the safety of the content it displays. You can be noted that the Pine Tree adware may use web beacons and tracking cookies to personalize the commercials presented to you, and that may not be welcomed by many web surfers. A credible anti-spyware application can remove all files associated with the Pine Tree adware from your PC and prevent adware and other cyber threats from entering your OS.
