Web surfers who are bombarded with ads by RocketSale may be infected with adware. You may have conducted a drive-by installation of the RocketSale adware when you handled a freeware package with the 'Typical' or 'Express' option. The RocketSale adware may use an adware-powered browser plugin and an extension to execute its operations. Computer users infected with the RocketSale adware may experience slower browser performance due to banners, ad boxes, pop-up and pop-under windows generated by the RocketSale adware. Security analysts note that the RocketSale adware is compatible with Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox, and may record your search terms and read your browsing history to customize the promotions displayed on your screen. The RocketSale shares similarities with the iSaver and the DealEXpressprograms and may add a task in the Windows Task Manager to update its binary automatically. Moreover, the RocketSale adware may write a registry entry in Windows to ensure its activities when you switch on your PC. The RocketSale adware may use in-text hyperlinks to redirect you to sponsored products such as PC MightyMax and Repair Registry 2008 that may cause irreparable damages to your system.
