SmartPurple Ads

Posted: July 3, 2015

SmartPurple is an unreliable browser plugin, classified by the experts as adware. Almost all features of this tool speak negatively about the benefits of keeping it. To begin with, the distribution strategy of SmartPurple is deceptive. It cannot be found on an official site, but is instead deployed as bonus component of third-party free applications. The users, who install the software through the "Quick" menu, may not be informed adequately that the adware add-on is also about to enter. Even if you complete the task with the "Advanced" guide, you may be tricked by the advertising of SmartPurple. Allegedly, it will show you the best deals and offers at the moment, so you can buy products at a cheap price. This promise is rarely fulfilled as the promoted pages are often untrustworthy. The aggressive pop-ups, banners and animations may even lead to sites, which represent a risk to your system. The commercial materials come in vast amounts to make you click on them, which may result in slower loading speed. You may be surprised to find out that the ads may be very accurate. SmartPurple has access to your browsing details, including your search history and list of visited pages. This data is skillfully used to make the ads user-relevant. To maintain your browsers safe and fast, you should delete the adware from your machine.
