RadianceChecked is an example of adware that falls into the latter category. This adware is usually installed on users' computers without their knowledge or consent. It can be bundled with other software that users download from the internet, or it can be installed through other means, such as fake software updates or malicious email attachments.

Once installed on a computer, RadianceChecked begins to display advertisements to the user. These ads can take many forms, including pop-ups, banners, and in-text ads. They may be related to the user's web browsing history, or they may be completely unrelated. In either case, they are usually unwanted and can be difficult to close or remove.

In addition to displaying ads, RadianceChecked can also track users' browsing activity and collect personal information such as their search history, IP address, and even their keystrokes. This information can be used to create targeted ads or sold to third-party advertisers, putting users' privacy and security at risk.
