Posted: September 15, 2016

According to the extension's official website, the Unfriend List provides users with notifications whenever someone unfriends them on Facebook. This may seem like a great tool to have at your disposal, especially considering that this biggest social media website does not notify its users whenever someone unfriends them. The good news about the Unfriend List is that this extension works. It requires users to log-in with their Facebook credentials, and then the application takes a copy of their friend list. Afterward, it automatically checks the current and past friends and informs the user if someone is missing. However, this is a simple feature, and it is the only useful thing that the Unfriend List does. In the meantime, the installation of the Unfriend List may bring a lot of negative things to your Web browsing experience, the most notable of which involves a large number of unwanted advertisements.

It is not a surprise that the Unfriend List is classified as adware, considering that this extension may inject marketing content on any Web page that the user visits. Often, the ads that the Unfriend List displays may include links to low-quality websites or promote dubious software whose installation is not recommended. If you are bothered by the 'Unfriend List Ads' in your we browser, then you should remove the source of the problem from your computer immediately. The Unfriend List is installed as a browser extension so it can be removed via your browser's settings section manually, but it is also possible to remove the extension's files with the help of an anti-malware scanner automatically.
