Pinguide Adware
PinGuide Adware is a Korean-language browser helper object that exists to spy on Internet users and send ads to them. When you have installed PinGuide Adware on your machine, your IE window is going to exhibit a sidebar displaying obnoxious and irrelevant ads. PinGuide Adware is not only annoying, but it also consumes lots of resources and slows down your Internet. PinGuide Adware conceals itself as a browser add-on, and it will even show in your IE "Manage Add-ons" options window, but it's not as easy to remove most add-ons. PinGuide Adware is one of those nasty parasites that keeps coming back even after you thought you'd eliminated it.
