The browsing details are mostly shared with third-parties for receiving monetary income while the private data might be misused for identity theft if it falls into the wrong hands. Another activity related to this app is the display of advertising content that can sometimes occur and sometimes not. However, you should never trust the offers and deals that come from this adware as they will likely try to scam you and provide you with questionable purchasable material for which you might be urged to pay an inadequate price.

Furthermore, the PUP itself can bring other suspicious products such as Internet Download Manager, NVIDIA Virtual Audio 1.2.40, HTML5 Video Player 1.2.5 to the computer system. However, its installation process also relies on deceptive techniques such as infiltrating the machine through software bundles that can be received from secondary-downloading websites.
