Overview

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. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The primary executable is named Uninstall.exe. A majority of users end up uninstalling this less than a week of it being installed. The setup package generally installs about 10 files and is usually about 491.83 KB (503,631 bytes).
  • Malware detected in the program
  • Automatically starts with Windows
  • Installs a Windows Service
  • Known to include offers within the setup
  • The experts agree, you should remove it!
