Pop-2-Top

Posted: July 7, 2016

Pop-2-Top is a Web browser extension that is advertised as a great way to improve your browser's ability to navigate long Web pages. The Pop-2-Top extension adds a convenient button to any Web page which, when clicked, returns you to the top of the page. This is the extension's only purpose, and while some users might find it useful, they should also know that Pop-2-Top is identified as adware by malware researchers, and popular anti-virus vendors will report and remove Pop-2-Top.

The installation of the Pop-2-Top extension may often go unnoticed because the adware is found in low-quality software bundles that may use deceptive tricks to confuse users and get them to accept the installation of dubious programs like Pop-2-Top unknowingly. If you want to reduce the chance of installing annoying adware like Pop-2-Top you should stick to downloading software from trustworthy publishers and websites. Also, make sure to always pay close attention to the installation details to see if there are any offers to install 3rd-party programs different from the one you downloaded. These offers should always be declined unless you are certain that the software offered is safe.

If Pop-2-Top is already installed on your computer and its advertisements are bothering you, we advise you to download a reputable anti-malware scanner and use it to remove the Pop-2-Top files and components from your computer.
