The SelectTool free application could be considered a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) because it provides features free of charge that rely on aggressive marketing strategies. Users may have installed SelectTool as extra software along with other freeware because they were attracted by the freeware's functionality; however, users should note that they may experience pop-ups, coupons, ads and discount windows appearing in their web browser. The creators of SelectTool use ad providers to generate revenue to cover their expenses, developing costs and keep the app free. You may want to remove the SelectTool PUP with a reliable anti-spyware utility as soon as the ads start to cover your browser surface.
