About SuperClick adware
Even though it’s described as useful application that will help you to save both your time and money when shopping online by providing you with various deals, coupons and commercial offers, this is not true. Once installed it will display various advertisements on all of your web browsers. Those ads can be displayed in all kinds of forms, including pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements. New tab or even window with advertisement can be opened on your web browser at any time as well.
It works as browser add-on that can be added to all most popular web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or even Safari. This means Apple users can get infected as well.
Another unwanted attribute of SuperClick is data collection. Once installed it will collect your private information, such as browsing history, search queries, most visited sites or even your IP and email addresses. They adjust those advertisements according to collected data and make them even more relevant and attractive to you this way, so chicness that you will click on one of them rise. And that’s the main goal of SuperClick because they get paid for every click you make.
Distribution Methods of SuperClick adware
SuperClick is traveling the same way as most of other adware – bundled with various freeware that can be downloaded from the Internet. For instance, when you download and install some PDF generator or media player, there is a chance that SuperClick will be installed alongside without you even being aware of that. To avoid this happening, always pay close attention to the installation process of freeware. Read all terms and conditions and don’t allow any additional software to be installed if you are not assured that you really need it. Otherwise, you can end up installing SuperClick or any other malware.
