Severe Weather Alerts - How to remove

Severe Weather Alerts is another annoying adware that you should not keep on your computer. It can be detected by most anti-malware programs and listed as a PUP (potentially unwanted program). There are several reasons for that. Probably the most annoying attribute of this malicious program is display of all those disturbing ads, including sponsored links, coupons, deals and banner ads, “pop-unders” or interstitial ads. It is not very difficult no notice that ads is delivered by Severe Weather Alerts because those ads are labeled with slogans “Ads by Severe Weather Alerts”, “Severe Weather Alerts Deals”, “Powered by Severe Weather Alerts” or “Brought by Severe Weather Alerts”. Severe Weather Alerts will ask you to pay $9.9 for its Pro version that does not display any ads. All those ads come from third parties and once you will click on them, at the same moment you will be redirected to third parties websites that may be infected and do some sort of damage to your computer. Furthermore, Severe Weather Alerts will collect your personal information like browsing history, search queries and top visited sites in order to adjust their ads according to that information and make them more attractive to you. If you noticed Severe Weather Alerts on your computer, wait no more and take needed actions.

Even though it is not officially a virus, a lot of users think that way because Severe Weather Alerts comes into their computers without their awareness. That’s because it travels bundled with other free software that can be found on the Internet for free. During the installation of such a software, be extra attentive and do not skip any steps. Read terms and conditions, if possible – opt out for a custom or advanced install mode. If you see that some additional software that you are not aware of is being installed alongside – do not allow it. In case your computer is already Severe Weather Alerts, wait no more and scan it with a trustworthy anti-malware program like Spyhunter or malwarebytes and get rid of this adware automatically. If you prefer to do this manually, you can follow our Severe Weather Alerts removal guide given below.
