An Overview of WeekApp

WeekApp may be installed in the form of an add-on, plug-in or Web browser extension for the most used Web browsers on the Windows OS. WeekApp may be installed on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. WeekApp may be installed after the installation of a free program downloaded from a low quality source. During the installation process, the computer user is prompted to install WeekApp, often opted in automatically. Because of this, PC security researchers recommend the use of custom installation to check that what is being installed during the installation process is only the components you need and that no unwanted PUPs like WeekApp have been included. If you detect any add-ons like WeekApp, always choose the option to opt out of these types of PUPs.

Why to Remove WeekApp from Your Computer may be a Good Idea

The most common symptoms associated with WeekApp are irritating pop-up messages and advertising content added to the affected Web browser. WeekApp may cause pop-up windows and suspicious error messages to appear on the affected Web browser. These pop-up messages may lead your Web browser to websites that carry out known hoaxes or that are used to distribute other PUPs. Although WeekApp is marketed as a useful Web browser add-on, PC security researchers have noted that WeekApp does not offer any legitimate services and its main purpose is to profit by forcing you to view marketing material and various types of advertisements.
