Term Tutor (TermTutor) is a questionable program that some have classified as being adware. The Term Tutor program may be known for its loading on a system and displaying several advertisements that supposedly support its functions and then offers additional services or products through its pop-up or banner ads. The Term Tutor ads may cause redirects to other sites if used by clicking on them. Some of those sites may have questionable content and lead to other pages that offer products to download, potentially being an unwanted program or file. Stopping the activities of Term Tutor ads being displayed, which is a rather intrusive situation when you are surfing the internet, may take use of an antimalware application designed to detect and remove adware programs.
