Datasrvrs.com

Datasrvrs.com is an advertisement network that specializes in providing surveys, but also is a site that benefits from the attacks of separate adware programs. These attacks, which malware experts confirmed as rising in prominence in the middle of this year, modify your browser to generate pop-up windows with Datasrvrs.com's surveys without your consent, and should be considered potentially harmful to your computer. Although Datasrvrs.com adware isn't included in any legitimate browser add-on and can't be uninstalled through normal procedures, most reputable anti-malware programs should be able to detect and remove Datasrvrs.com adware without any extensive trouble.

The Too-Friendly Survey that Wants Your Opinions No Matter What

With a history of being involved in delivering content that easily could be disguised phishing attacks, along with heavy (albeit indirect) affiliations with adware, Datasrvrs.com isn't the most reputable advertisement network that have been examined. However, while you should engage with Datasrvrs.com's content with all due caution, Datasrvrs.com currently isn't categorized as an unsafe website and does not have any known tendency to distribute either high or low-level PC threats.

Datasrvrs.com specializes in surveys for major online retailers, such as Amazon, and displays this content through pop-up windows that usually are triggered on relevant websites. Unfortunately, malware researchers also have confirmed some cases of suspicious adware programs displaying Datasrvrs.com pop-ups regularly, with these reports taking a sharp rise in June and July of 2013. In all observed cases, Datasrvrs.com adware infections were installed non-consensually and involved PC threats that concealed their major components to prevent the victims from uninstalling them. In these cases, pop-ups for Datasrvrs.com's surveys usually recur regularly without requiring you to visit a specific kind of website.

Getting Your Browser Served the Data You Want and Nothing Else

Because Datasrvrs.com's surveys bear a strong resemblance to casual phishing attacks that attempt to compromise e-mail addresses and other personal information through requests, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers advise you to think twice whenever you're answering questions in Datasrvrs.com's pop-ups. However, other than the likely issue of a Datasrvrs.com survey resulting in you being a target of commercial spam, Datasrvrs.com is not considered a danger to your computer. Sadly, the same doesn't apply to adware programs responsible for promoting Datasrvrs.com, which always should be treated as minor but notable security risks.

Because Datasrvrs.com adware programs almost always hide their files and settings changes to hinder their deletion, you usually should turn to anti-malware products as the first and most direct solution to a Datasrvrs.com adware problem. Removing Datasrvrs.com adware with appropriate security software also should put an end to Datasrvrs.com pop-ups and any other side effects that you may experience in the meantime. The infection vectors for these PC threats have not yet been firmly classified, although malware experts are inclined to assume free software bundles as the primary culprit, based on previous adware campaigns.
