ActiveTrack

ActiveTrack is a shady program that you may end up installing if you mistakenly download a fake Adobe Flash Player update, a dodgy software bundle or if you fall for false advertising. The presence of ActiveTrack in your list of installed Mac applications may turn out to be an annoying issue to deal with since this program will inject a large number of advertisements in your Web browsers. Adware like ActiveTrack tends to take advantage of multiple advertising techniques:

• Redirects.
• Full-page overlays.
• Banners.
• In-text advertisements.
• Hyperlinked words.
• Pop-ups and alerts.

Since adware may be a deceptive software, you should not expect it to propagate trustworthy content – the ActiveTrack advertisements may be riddled with gambling offers, adult sites and similar content.

If you think that adware like ActiveTrack may be present on your Mac computer, then you should attempt to resolve the issue as soon as you can. Running a reliable Mac anti-malware scanner should be more than enough to eradicate the components ActiveTrack and similar adware.
