recently, I have been receiving very many ‘savings ads’ on my screen. they show up as banners that promote ali express.. i tried to click on them, but a few times i have been redirected to suspicious pages instead of the actual ‘offer’ page. why?
are ads by savings real?

Thank you for your question. First of all, we would like to say that 'Savings' is actually a name of a potentially unwanted program (PUP). This program is considered to be suspicious because it delivers many advertisements for the user who has installed this program on the computer. This adware program can also be installed without your consent - it is usually spread with other freeware, and you may install it without realizing that if you do not read the Terms of Use document or if you rely on Default or Standard installation method. This is not the way you should install software. We have prepared a comprehensive article about Savings adware, and we included tips how to prevent installing unwanted software unconsciously. The article also includes Savings removal instructions - read them here: How to remove Savings virus?
