EasyCalc program can be downloaded from a number of websites on the Internet, including sourceforge.net, softonic.com, tucows.com, cnet.com, apkpure.com, soft112.com, mobogenie.com, etc. It can also get downloaded and installed on one’s PC by installing free software from the above mentioned downloading platforms or any other downloading sites, legitimate or illegitimate ones, across the whole of the web.

How does EasyCalc Program Function on Your PC?

EasyCalc is set as your browser extension by yourself or it is set automatically without your full awareness of the fact. Either of the way this browser extension functions as an adware rather than an optimization tool. Even though we cannot deny that Easy Calc does possess the functionality of a calculator, it is embedded in cookies, javascript, etc. to display you the advertising content of third party online advertisers.

The advertisements EasyCalc renders you are recognizable by the following tags attached to them, Ads by EasyCalc, Powered by EasyCalc, Ads powered by EasyCalc, Brought to you by EasyCalc, etc. They appear on any of the web pages you visit and the form they are displayed in can also vary greatly. Ads by EasyCalc can be showed as pop-up kind of advertisements, banners, links, etc. Typically, they involve the products and services you have been searching for previously or, because of the real-time tracking feature of the program, these adverts can render you alternative offers for products and services at a lower price rate you are viewing on online shopping platforms.

The truth is that EasyCalc is not a shopping assistant and it cannot provide you with the best prices or deals. This application is merely bundled with adware, which utilizes this calculator to perform its function of displaying advertising scams. EasyCalc PUP is offered for free because the distributors get payed from the developers of adware, and the developers of adware get payed from the 3rd party advertisers, for whom you pay for the bogus offers they produce specially for you.
