About RocketSale adware

Even though it’s described as useful application that will save both your time and money when shopping online by providing you with various coupons, deals and commercial offers. However, that’s not true. The problem is that all those offers and deals are displayed in annoying form of web advertisements, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements. New tab or even window with ad on it can be opened at any time as well.

Usually those advertisements displayed by RocketSale appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon and offer you to purchase some particular goods at appealing price rate. Don’t fall for that trick – most of the time those offers are fake, they are just trying to make you click on one of those advertisements this way. That’s the main goal of RocketSale because they get paid for every click you make.

Distribution Methods of RocketSale adware

RocketSale is traveling the same way as most of other malware of this type – bundled with other free software that can be downloaded from the Internet. That’s why you need to pay attention to the installation process of freeware.

Never skip any steps (don’t just click ‘next’ and ‘agree’ buttons before reading all information first) and opt out for a custom or advanced install mode if possible. Reading all terms and conditions would be considered wise as well. If you notice that some additional software that you are not aware of is being installed alongside – don’t allow this installation to be completed because it can possibly be RocketSale or any other malware that you don’t want to see installed on your computer.
