Feven ads. How to remove? (Uninstall guide)
What is Feven?
Feven is another application, which can easily infiltrate your computer without a clear permission asked. This distribution method has already initiated various discussions on the Internet because it seems that you can’t be sure how many programs will you install on your computer when downloading freeware from the Internet anymore. That’s because the most of them have been filled with optional components, such as browser add-ons, extensions, plugins, toolbars and similar components that can be prevented only if you monitor installation of the freeware. If you haven’t been doing that when installing download managers, PDF creators and similar freewares, then there is no surprise that Feven has entered your computer and then hijack all of its web browsers. It is compatible with all known web browsers, so there is no surprise that it can easily occupy Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and other web browsers that can be found on the system. As soon as it finishes its modifications, Feven adware may start its annoying routine, which consists of continuous pop-up ads, redirects, slow downs and similar activities. The clearest sign that Feven is hiding inside your computer, is continuous notifications about coupons and discounts. No matter how good they look, you should be very careful with each of them because they may trick you into visiting suspicious websites that have been used for spreading questionable programs. If you are annoyed by alerts that are labeled as “Feven ads”, “ads by Feven”, “Feven coupons”, brought to you by Feven” and similar notifications, it is a sign that your computer has already been hijacked. In this case, you should waste no time and remove this adware-type program. If you have downloaded it voluntarily, you should thing whether it is as valuable as it claims. You can remove Feven adware from your computer with a help of a guide, which is given below or with a help of such programs as Reimage.
HOW CAN Feven hijack MY COMPUTER?
As we have already mentioned, Feven is mostly distributed in a bundle with freeware and shareware. Those who want to avoid its distribution should remember one thing: every time you install freeware on your computer, you have to monitor its installation process and keep an eye on every installation window. By saying this, we mean that you have to select Custom or Advanced installation of the freeware and then try to find these checkboxes that agree to install Feven and other browser add-ons and uncheck them. If you missed this check box, there is a huge chence that now you see continuous ads from this program. No matter that they might look trustworthy and helpful, you should be careful because they mostly seek to make people visit specific domains and earn the money from that.
