PsdRunner. How to remove? (Uninstall guide)

PsdRunner is another ad-supported program, which causes commercial pop-up notifications during people's browsing. This program is actively promoted using unfair distribution method, which relies on third party programs. In most of the cases, it infiltrates computers as 'additional download', so if you don't pay enough attention to freewares' installation, you can easily agree to install it on your computer. That's why there are hundreds of PC users who have reported about unexpected PsdRunner's infiltration and have called this program 'virus'. In reality, it can't pose harm to any computer but we still recommend avoiding this adware.
