Aitaobao is the name of a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may be installed alongside legitimate software. The Aitaobao PUP isn't threatening, but it may drain a significant amount of system resources and have an unfavorable impact on the performance of low-end computers. The Aitaobao application may be associated with an Asian online marketplace hosted on ai.taobao.com. The online store is legitimate, but it is only available to users in Asia, so it is questionable whether the Aitaobao PUP is meant to affect users outside of Asia. Regardless of this fact, there have been reports of users from Europe and America who have noticed that Aitaobao is installed on their computers. If you are bothered by Aitaobao's presence on your computer, and you don't remember installing this software, we advise you to remove it as soon as possible.
Despite Aitaobao's harmless nature, the PUP may display behavior typical to adware. This means that users who have this PUP installed may be exposed to Aitaobao ads whenever they launch their Web browser. The Aitaobao ads may promote deals offered by the ai.taobao.com store, or they may include other paid advertisements. To remove Aitaobao, users should rely on the assistance of a reputable anti-malware software product.
