SchedulerSkyLoad

Mac users continue to be the main targets of applications belonging to the AdLoad family. These intrusive programs are designed to monetize their presence on the user's device through annoying and disruptive methods. They can be equipped to function as adware, browser hijackers or even both. Due to the questionable methods involved in their distribution, these applications also are often classified as PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). SchedulerSkyLoad is exactly such an application from the AdLoad family. 

The exact behavior of SchedulerSkyLoad may depend on several factors such as the device's IP address, macOS version, browser type, geolocation, visited websites and more. As a result, users may be affected by the application in different ways. However, most commonly, SchedulerSkyLoad will be tasked with running an unwanted ad campaign. 

Users should always be cautious when dealing with advertisements generated by unproven or unfamiliar sources. Engaging with the advertisements could cause forced redirects to shady third-party websites such as phishing pages, fake giveaways or questionable adult-oriented platforms. It is not uncommon for users also to be presented with offers for dubious software products that turn out to just be more PUPs.
