Title: WinTaskAd
Type: Adware	Severity scale: (33 / 100)

WinTaskAd is a typical adware program that displays undesirable pop-up advertisements. It can secretly get into the system from some malicious web sites. WinTaskAd drops its files into the default system directory (C:\Windows\System, C:\Windows\System32 or C:\Winnt\System32) and alters the registry, so the threat could run on every OS startup.
