JavaUpgrader.com

Posted: June 2, 2014

JavaUpgrader.com is a questionable upgrade website that may show a bogus pop-up warning message 'Free Java Security Update (Required)' on the PC while computer users are surfing the Internet. The bogus pop-up warning message on JavaUpgrader.com may be shown by adware that may circulate and enter the PC as an additional application while computer users are downloading free applications from suspicious download websites. The fake pop-up alert displayed on JavaUpgrader.com may declare that 'Your Java version is out of date', and the computer user needs to download some critical security update. The notification from JavaUpgrader.com may also give the computer user instructions on why is it important to upgrade to the latest version. In actuality, the JavaUpgrader.com alert is not associated with the PC user's Java application. The fake Java warning message was generated to probably deliver adware and other potentially unwanted applications. When the PC user clicks on the 'Free Java Download' button of the JavaUpgrader.com notification thinking that he will download an update, he may, in actuality, agree to install a potentially unwanted application or adware.
