Are you being bothered by 'ScrollUp Ads' or 'Ads by ScrollUp' while you browse the web? Advertisements labeled with one of these messages may have one source – the ScrollUp web browser extension. The ScrollUp application is nothing more than a low-level threat identified as adware. The purpose of ScrollUp is to spam the user's web browser with numerous advertisements and pop-ups that may promote various content, including applications, products and services. The content promoted via ScrollUp ads may contain links to harmful or malicious web destinations, so users that see ScrollUp ads should not click on them unless they are 100% sure that the URL they are about to visit is reliable.
The ScrollUp adware may be distributed via unfair techniques such as software bundling and stealth installations. The ScrollUp application may be installed on the user's computers without their knowledge, so many users may see the ScrollUp ads although they don't remember accepting to install the extension in question. Dealing with adware may be a tricky task, so users affected by ScrollUp are advised to remove this software with the help of a reliable and potent anti-virus application. By using professional software to solve the issues, users can rest assured that all of ScrollUp's files and components will be terminated and that the ScrollUp ads will not persist.
