ElevenInstall ads. How to remove? (Uninstall guide)
What is ElevenInstall?
ElevenInstall is yet another potentially unwanted program (PUP) that may slither onto your computer via other freewares. Therefore, if you want to prevent installing this plug-in without even realizing that, you should be very careful when installing free software on your computer. ElevenInstall is promoted as a powerful tool that supposedly allows people to earn the money from advertising. Thus, there is no doubt that it’s a genuine adware that should not be kept on computers. If it enters the system, the first thing that you may notice is a serious slow down of the web browser because this misleading adware may hijack and corrupt various settings in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer. Another thing that this add-on may initiate is annoying pop-up and banner advertisements that tend to show up when you try surfing the net. In fact, half of the ElevenInstall ads may appear suspicious and you may not even consider clicking on them. However, some of them may be really eye-catching. That’s because they may inform about various deals and discounts related to the items that you have recently looked for. Unfortunately, we do not recommend clicking on any of the ads marked as ‘Ads by ElevenInstall’ because you can never be sure if they promote reliable websites. By the way, you should know that in order to prepare appealing advertisements, ElevenInstall virus may spy on you. Down below you can see an excerpt from the Privacy Policy of this program:
Note: The plugin and other services collect and stores information concerning the web pages you visit and your activity on those pages, such as impressions, clicks and search terms. In some cases, information collected by the plugin and other services may be personally identifiable, and in some cases information (including information from or about pages of social media websites you visit) may be used or shared with third parties .
Thus, if you want to prevent privacy-related issues, you should remove ElevenInstall virus without any delay. The easiest way to do that is to run a full system scan with Reimage. This way you will also minimize the risk of exposing your PC to unsafe websites, infiltration of other unwanted software and so on.
How can ElevenInstall hijack my computer?
If you want to prevent installing ElevenInstall virus without realizing that, you should remember that it may be added alongside various freewares and sharewares. In short, it’s distributed by ‘bundling’. In order to find and opt out of ‘optional downloads’ (add-ons, plug-ins, toolbars, extensions) with which freewares may be installed, you have to select Advanced or Custom installation all the time. This way, all check boxes will be disclosed to you and you will be able to unmark check marks notifying your consent to install ElevenInstall redirect virus or any other suspicious app. If you are allowed to select Quick or Basic installation only, we recommend you to look for a more reliable freeware.
