Security researchers have received reports of unwanted behaviors associated with SolteraTop, a Potentially Unwanted Program that is typically marketed as a plug-in for Web browsers on the Windows operating system. Malware analysts have noted that SolteraTop has all the characteristics of browser hijackers and adware, despite the fact that marketers promote SolteraTop as a useful tool for gaining access to certain online deals and discounts. There are several problems that may be related to SolteraTop:

- SolteraTop may compromise your privacy by keeping track of your online activity and sending information about your computer to an outsider that may use it in marketing research or to deliver additional advertisements to your computer.
- SolteraTop may make unwanted changes to your Web browser settings, changing its homepage and default search engine. This ensures that computer users are exposed to content associated with SolteraTop as soon as they run the affected Web browser.
