You Can Avoid the Installation of the Realore Studios Toolbar

Unlike viruses, rootkit and similar threats, PUPs are not considered entirely risky. Basically, a PUP is an unwanted program that causes numerous symptoms but that is actually installed by the computer user and can be removed without the use of a specialized removal tool. However, symptoms associated with the Realore Studios Toolbar may be just as irritating (or even more) than those caused by harmful components. Technically, computer users may avoid downloading and installing the Realore Studios Toolbar when the Realore Studios Toolbar is bundled with a recently installed freeware or shareware program. However, the option to do this is often hard to find. This is done on purpose to guarantee that as many people as possible install the Realore Studios Toolbar on their computer.
