About IncludeMaker adware

It works as browser add-on that can be added to all most popular web browsers, including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer or ecen Safari. This means Apple users can get infected as well. Even though it’s described as useful application that will help to save both time and money when shopping online by providing users with valuable deals, coupons and commercial links, this is not true.

The problem is all those offers come in annoying manner of web advertisements in all kinds of forms, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements. New tab or even wundow with advertisements can be opened on your web browser as well. Usually they appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon and offers you to purchase some particular goods or services at very appealing price rate. However, don’t fall for that trick – usually those advertisements are fake, they’re just trying to win your attention and make you click on one of those advertisements this way. And we dont’t recommend to any of those ads displayed by IncludeMaker.

If you do so, you will be immediately redirected to other websites that may be owned by various cyber criminals, such as hackers or scammers. This way your computer can get infected or in case you attempt to purchase something there you can even get scammed and lose your hard earned money this way.

That’s because IncludeMaker can be described as advertising network for cyber criminals – since they are banned from all legitimate advertising networks, they use adware like this to drive some traffic to their websites. That’s being said, if you keep IncludeMaker installed on your computer, cyber criminals can reach you right on your web browser on a daily basis, and that’s really dangerous.

Distribution Methods of IncludeMaker

You can get infected with IncludeMaker simply by downloading and installing free software from the Internet.

Never skip any steps and always opt out for a custom or advanced install mode if possible. This way you will be able to see all available options and make needed changes.
