  • Category Description: Program that delivers advertisements on your PC.

    Note that many websites have their own advertising, unrelated to adware.

    Adware is any software application in which advertising is displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which can be viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen and sometimes through text links or in integrated search results. Adware may or may not track personal information. It may also gather information anonymously or in aggregate only. Users should check the EULA and Privacy policy to ensure if the adware on their machines conforms to their standards.
    Comment: A "media player" that streams two Youtube movie clips, and serves built-in adverts to the end user. No EULA is displayed in relation to the player itself, and there are at least three variants - one of which installs WhenU Save (which is disclosed).
