AD Blocker is a software program developed by Anvisoft. During setup, the program creates a startup registration point in Windows in order to automatically start when any user boots the PC. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The programs's main executable is adblockertray.exe and has been seen to consume an average CPU of less than one percent, and utilizes about 6.65 MB of memory. The setup package generally installs about 9 files and is usually about 12.54 MB (13,152,132 bytes). The installed file AutoUpdate.exe is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered. Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 7. While about 50% of users of AD Blocker come from the United States, it is also popular in United Kingdom and Canada.
