About Dynamo Combo adware
This unwanted application is described as a valuable tool that will help users to browse the Internet faster, save some time and money when shopping online. However, this description is nothing more than a big lie. You won’t save your time or money because of Dynamo Combo. Once installed it will display various advertisements, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, contextual or banner advertisements. They appear completely randomly, from time to time and disturb your web browsing this way. Usually they appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon and offer you to purchase some particular goods at a better price rate. Even though those offers look really appealing, don’t fall for that – it’s just a trick to win your attention and make you click on one of those advertisements. If you do so, you will be immediately redirected to other websites that may be owned by cyber criminals, such as hackers and scammers. This way your computer can get infected or if you attempt to purchase something there you can even get scammed and lose your money.
The tool works as a browser add-on that can be added to all most popular web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and even Safari. This means even Apple users can get infected. It’s like an advertising network for cyber criminals. Since they are banned from all legitimate advertising networks, they use adware like this to direct some traffic to their websites. This being said, if you have Dynamo Combo installed on your computer, cyber criminals can reach you right on your web browser on a daily basis and that’s really dangerous.
Another unwanted attribute of Dynamo Combo is data collection. Once installed it will collect various information about you, such as your browsing history, search queries, top visited sites or even your IP and email addresses. This information is used for marketing purposes. The third parties adjust those advertisements according to the collected data and make them even more relevant and attractive to you based on your browsing habits this way, so chances that you will click on one of those ads rise. And that’s the main goal of Dynamo Combo because its owners get paid for every click you make. They direct web traffic and collect sales leads. That’s why they try to infect as much as possible users and convince them that Dynamo Combo is a useful application so they wouldn’t want to remove it. Their revenue depends directly from this.
Furthermore, you can’t find any valid contact information on the tool’s official website. And that’s a really bad sign, because if something unwanted happens to you or your computer due to this application, no one will take responsibility for that.
Distribution Methods of Dynamo Combo
As we have mentioned before, Dynamo Combo is travelling the same way as most of other malware – bundled with free software that can be downloaded from the Internet. I.e. when you download and install some download manager, PDF generator or media player, there is a chance that Dynamo Combo will be installed alongside without you even being aware of that. That’s why you need to be really attentive during the installation of freebies.
Never skip any steps (don’t just click ‘next’ and ‘agree’ buttons’ all the time before reading all information first) and opt out for a custom or advanced install mode if possible. This will allow you to see all available options and make changes. Look for various check boxes that can be already checked for you. Don’t rush, because some of the most important information can be displayed in a very tiny font and you don’t want to overlook that. Reading all terms and conditions would be considered wise as well. If you notice that some additional software is being installed alongside and you don’t really recognise that application – don’t allow this installation to be completed because it can possibly be Dynamo Combo or any other unwanted adware. In case it’s too late and your computer is already infected, wait no more and eliminate the infection either manually or automatically.
