Winter Web's name has nothing to do with its real functions. Winter Web is an advertisement-related adware platform that has as its primary objective to display tons of advertisements on the Web pages favored by the computer users. Winter Web may be introduced into a computer bundled with freeware downloaded from the Web. Once installed, Winter Web may make changes to the browser settings and install threatening plugins on the computer. Winter Web may allow the entrance of additional adware, PUPs and more severe threats. The computer user's browsing information may be leaked by Winter Web, and the affected machine may lose speed and present a poor performance. The sooner Winter Web is removed from an affected computer, the better. Winter Web should be deleted with a malware remover.
