The QuickShop browser extension is deemed by security researchers as adware because it presents users with many pop-ups, ads, and banners. The QuickShop adware may claim to enhance your online shopping activities, but you may want to know that it functions as an advertising engine of ad providers. Advertisers use the QuickShop's browser integration to push in your browser numerous ads that may cover your browser surface and slow down your web browser. Also, the QuickShop adware may collect information about your online browsing and favorite websites in order to provide you with tailor-suited ads. The QuickShop adware may appear as an extension, an add-on, and a Browser Helper Object depending on what web applications you have installed on your system. You might want to consider using a credible anti-spyware tool to remove all components of the QuickShop adware.
