WordProser is an adware program that is similar to other add-on applications that display advertisements, such as SharkShopper and CutThePrice. The WordProser program is apt to loading various advertisements on your screen that come in many forms, such as banners, pop-under or pop-ups. Use of the WordProser advertisements may lead your Web browser to other sites that may have suspicious content or attempt to offer various services through the Internet. After WordProser has installed, the WordProser advertisements can be generated through various plugins or add-on extensions found in your Web browser. WordProser may be installed by default on the targeted computer when the computer user performs the installation of third party software. Also, WordProser may monitor the computer users online activities and collect data. Removal of those components will eliminate the WordProser program and stop the WordProser advertisements from appearing when you are surfing the Internet.
