What is Ezupdater Ads?

EZupdater is supposedly an application that allows users to update installed software and optimize computer performance. At first, the EZupdater may seem legitimate and useful, but, this app is categorized as a potentially unwanted program or known as PUP and adware. There are three main reasons why it’s considered as such: 1) stealth installation without authorization; 2) display of intrusive and pesky online advertisements, and; 3) tracking of users’ Internet browsing activity and history.
 

After the  infiltration, the EZupdater immediately delivers coupon, banner, pop-up, and other similar advertisements. The developers employ a “virtual layer” to do that- it is a tool that enables placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, the displayed ads often hide underlying content of visited websites, thereby significantly diminishing and brings disturbance to the browsing experience. Additionally, some lead to malicious and questionable websites- clicking them is risky and can definitely result in high-risk adware or malware infections. Aside from that, information tracking is definitely on their list to do. EZupdater simply gathers various data that might contain personal details such as (but is not limited to) IP addresses, URLs visited, search queries, and pages viewed. This information is then shared with  or sold to third parties to generate revenue by misusing personal details. Therefore, the presence of an information-tracking app can result in serious privacy issues or even identity theft- a devious act by cyber criminals. Uninstall EZupdater adware immediately or as soon as you are able.
EZupdater isn’t that unique type of adware, in fact, it has very similar characteristics to CloudExtender, Cookies On-Off, Tigers Deal, and hundreds of other adware-type applications.  Remember that adware-type programs are developed only to generate revenue for the developers. Rather than providing any value  and use for regular users, EZupdater and other similar apps deliver pesky and intrusive advertisements like via the “Pay Per Click” advertising model and continually record user-system information.
 

How did EZupdater get into my computer system?

Mainly, this adware like any other adware has an official download website, but, it is also distributed through a deceptive marketing method called “bundling”, wherein regular users often install EZupdater inadvertently without their permission or authorization, since they rush the download/installation processes and skip steps. Be always aware of this, developers hide bundled programs within the “Custom” or “Advanced” settings, so don’t ever carelessly skip this section, users expose their systems to risk of various infections and compromise their privacy if they do so.
 

Common symptoms of EZupdater adware infection:

  • Appearance of advertising banners which are injected with the web pages that you are visiting.
  • Random  hyperlinks.
  • Redirects you to different websites without your knowledge
  • Tracking your activity  and interests while you browse the Internet
  • Starts automatically with Windows
  • Adds a background Windows Service
  • Other unwanted adware programs might get installed without the user’s knowledge and authorization.

To make matters worse, you will also find that EZupdater will cause your computer to act more sluggish or for your web browser to freeze and worst, crash down.
