How Powzip infected the computer?

Web-criminals, or whoever maintains this advertising tool, are willing to to ensure that it's as nasty as nothing else before, to make you click on ads. By making this you allow new advertising tools into the system. This method is too plain. Powzip only provides plenty of ads, pop-ups, banners and links, and as they appear in the middle of user's monitor, he wants to remove them. Needless to mention that these links cannot be closed. There is no "hide" function for them, so any click launches another tab or a separate window with a viral website. Except that, it could initiate a download of some file, so if the device is already infected and the browser settings are changed – the virus will get into it. That’s how you receive annoying adware until Powzip works in the system.

To understand how the system runs cluttered with malicious utilities you have to know how Powzip gets into the computer. The word is the affiliate installation. It’s literally the plainest method to infect the one’s computer. Web-criminals usually copy the dangerous folder on a few portals and temporize, until operator downloads it. When it happens, it’s a matter of chance, so hackers can only trust that the operator will not read the EULA and will not bother to understand what he’s currently downloading. If you want to miss the infestation via affiliate download – here are the tips that may help:
  • Under any circumstances, do not shut off your antiviral software, especially if you see a suggestion to;
  • Don’t install tools, which conceal their goals;
  • Do not use unlicensed utilities;
  • Pay attention to everything in the windows while you're installing any tool.
