The ZX Player program is a video player that is created by a company known simply as The Team. The ZX Player video player is available for free download on Zxplayer.com or might land on your PC via free software bundles accompanied by adware like FrameFox. The ZX Player program is perceived as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) with adware capabilities because its behavior is very similar to Viralix Video and PlayThru Player. Computer users report that the ZX Player may generate pop-up windows and banners into Web browsers that are loaded with marketing materials. The ZX Player may appear in your 'Programs and Natures' panel and install an additional program that is a browser plug-in to show commercials in your Internet client. The ads by ZX Player may redirect users to suspicious websites and provide fake product reviews to recommended offers and deals.

Online shoppers that installed the ZX Player are not advised to use coupons and discounts from pop-up windows by the ZX Player. You should know that the code of the ZX Player is a compilation of publicly available code repositories like SMPlayer GUI, MPlayer, QuaZIP and icon sets like Faenza and LED. The ZX Player may download commercials from the Internet and play them before loading videos from your computer. The ZX Player might not provide proper video rendering of MKV, MP4, MOV and AVI files and that may agitate some users. The ZX Player is distributed under the GNU General Public License and might cover your screen with promotional materials. Many computer users might not welcome ads by ZX Player in their Internet browser or tolerate commercials in their video player. A credible anti-spyware tool can remove all files of the ZX Player program completely.
