Lp.downloadsetup.net popup - How to remove

Lp.downloadsetup.net popup

Lp.downloadsetup.net popup is a malicious message that was designed to distribute iLivid free video downloader. Although it is not related to any viruses, the message is very annoying, so most of the users wish to remove it. The popup is displayed on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers if you have unintentionally installed some browser plugin or adware.

Lp.downloadsetup.net popup suggests downloading iLivid to your computer in order to download and watch your videos faster. You should not rush clicking on this popup as iLivid is known for interfering into your browsing sessions by changing your browser settings and even installing other programs of the third parties without your permission. You should also keep in mind that it can collect the information about your browsing habits and use it to display targeted advertisements on your computer. Never click on Lp.downloadsetup.net popup if you have received it on your PC.

However, you should not ignore this popup either as it will keep appearing on your browser every time you surf the Internet. That is because your computer contains an adware that is responsible for displaying Lp.downloadsetup.net popup. Most likely you have installed it when downloading another freeware to your system. To avoid that, pay more attention to your downloads and make sure you read Terms and Agreements before installing any new tool to your computer.
