Klip Pal is classified as an adware and a PUP (potentially unwanted program). In a nutshell, you would not want to keep it on your computer, because it can cause you some security problems and waste your time. You can be surprised right now, because this application on its official website at http://klippal.com is described as an useful and powerful tool:

“We’re passionate about improving the web by providing the best tools to enhance the browsing experience, from searching the web to comparing online deals to find the best prices. We’ve combined all of our great ideas into the Klip Pal product suite, a FREE set of tools that work to make your browsing experience… better! While you surf the web, Klip Pal’s tools Compare, Deals, Inline, Related, Review, and Search are working hard behind the scenes to enhance your browsing. You’ll save time (and money) with Klip Pal installed, and will wonder how you lived without us! Best of all, unlike similar services that charge subscription fees, Klip Pal is and will always be completely free!”

As you can see, by the description, it should save both your time and money when shopping online by providing you with various coupons and deals. Even though it sounds nice, reality is a bit different. If your computer is infected with Klip Pal, every time you browse the Internet through your web browser you will see various tads in all kinds of forms, such as banner, pop-up, pop-under or in-text ads with offers to purchase some particular goods or services. Most of the time those ads appear on e-commerce websites, such as Amazon or eBay and offers to buy something at a better price rate. This way users are tricked to click on those ads. And you should not do that. Why? Due to the fact that Klip Pal is completely free for all users, they get funded from various third parties that are advertising on this advertising network. The problem is that Klip Pal does not administrate their partners. I.e. everyone can promote their products or services through this network. And it is not a secret that a lot of cyber criminals use this network. That means they can reach you everyday just on your web browser. And that’s why you should not click on those ads. However, if you do so, you will be immediately redirected to third parties website that may be infected and cause harm to your computer or even your private information. It works as a browser add-on that can be added to all most popular web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. It is not available on Macs yet, but they say that they are working on Klip Pal for Macs and will make an announcement soon. Those ads can be very irritating and even cause a lag on your computer. If you have noticed that this program is operating on your computer, you should take care of it and remove it right now.

The main goal of this malicious application is to build as big as possible audience. Because the bigger audience they can reach, the higher revenue they will get. They get paid for collecting sales leads and generating web traffic. For that reason they try to attract people announcing themselves as an useful tool that will gain a lot of benefits for users. If you take a closer look to their Privacy Policy, you will notice an interesting fax – once installed Klip Pal will collect your personal information, such as browsing history, search queries, top visited sites, email and/or IP address. They transfer this information to the mentioned third parties and they adjust their ads according to the given data. This way ads looks more attractive and relevant to your browsing habits, so the chances that you will click on one of them rises. And again Klip Pal receives money for every click you make. Most of cyber security specialist advise to remove this application from your computer, because it can lead you to some more serious cyber security problems.

A lot of users think that this application is a dangerous virus, because they don’t remember installing it and can’t tell where it came from. It’s because Klip Pal is traveling bundled with other free applications that can be downloaded from the Internet.

Do not skip any steps and make sure to opt our to custom or advanced install mode if possible. Read all terms and conditions as well.
