YeaDesktop is a classic example of an advertising program that is used
in standard schemes of ad fraud on the Internet. This program can
display advertising proposals individually or as part of large ad units,
call up pop-up windows with links, and redirect the user to untrusted
sites in the browser. Most likely this program was developed by Chinese
scammers, or those who are trying to impersonate them. Unlike most other
adware, YeaDesktop does not operate autonomously, and it constantly
receives instructions from the remote server xiaobingdou.com. This
server is the core of the entire system that directs traffic to certain
sites.
Such programs can be used for various purposes, and the most obvious
of them are: earnings through advertising fraud, paid "promotion" of
unreliable sites, collection of statistics of requests and distribution
of more dangerous programs. Below we will look at each of these options
and explain their essence.
- Earning on advertising fraud is the abuse of pay per click system.
- Website promotion is carried out in the same way: scammers simply insert links to promoted sites into ad units.
- Statistics can be collected by any program on the computer, but the cost of such information increases in direct proportion to the time for which statistics are collected.
- YeaDesktop can not directly distribute viruses by downloading them automatically to the user's computer.
So, as you can see, all these functions can’t be called useful. All
of them are aimed at getting money by the creators of the program and at
the same time the interests of the user are not taken into account. The
only way to permanently get rid of the obsessive advertising of
YeaDesktop and the associated difficulties is to remove adware from the
system.
