Unfortunately, ReimagePlus.com ads are something that users may encounter on Google Chrome, Safari, Mozilla Firefox, or Internet Explorer browsers – sometimes more often than they would like.

In other words, ads are inserted into various users' machines without the permission of the authors.

In most cases, potentially unwanted programs[1] get into users' computers via software bundles[2] that are downloaded from third-party websites.

Thus, if not checking the installation process carefully, they might end up with adware on their machines, and would soon feel the negative effects of its infections, such as display of ReimagePlus.com ads.

The main problem related to it is that people are not clearly warned about specific components that can be downloaded to their computers in a bundle with free programs. Once they are installed, commercial add-ons, extensions, and similar components are embedded in web browsers, and they start causing pop-up ads.

Such pieces of software tend to connect to various ad networks and load third-party advertisements from there. There is no specific program that might start causing pop-up ads, although thousands of them might engage in suspicious browser behavior, such as browser redirects, sponsored links, homepage, and new tab changes, etc.

Reasons why people receive ads promoting Reimage

As already mentioned, ReimagePlus.com is an official website of legitimate Windows repair software, so it cannot hijack[5] anything. Its ads are caused by third party browser add-ons and extensions that have been widely promoted in a bundle with free software.

As you probably heard, browser add-ons and ad-supported programs are usually disseminated alongside other freeware and shareware. Therefore, every time you install a download manager, media player, PDF creator or any other free program, you may download a bunch of other programs.

Some of them are harmless, others are quite aggressive, including Discount Buddy, Search Safer, VeriBrowse, and many others. Fortunately, freeware[6] distributors often give us a chance to opt out such unwanted components; however, for that, they require to pay much more attention to the freeware's installation process than the users are used to dedicate.

It's a must to select Advanced or Custom installation option and check every check box carefully. Otherwise, you may skip the list of 'optional components' and unconsciously agree to install the whole list of apps.

How to prevent from getting adware

Protect your privacy – employ a VPN

There are several ways how to make your online time more private – you can access an incognito tab. However, there is no secret that even in this mode, you are tracked for advertising purposes. There is a way to add an extra layer of protection and create a completely anonymous web browsing practice with the help of Private Internet Access VPN. This software reroutes traffic through different servers, thus leaving your IP address and geolocation in disguise. Besides, it is based on a strict no-log policy, meaning that no data will be recorded, leaked, and available for both first and third parties. The combination of a secure web browser and Private Internet Access VPN will let you browse the Internet without a feeling of being spied or targeted by criminals. 

No backups? No problem. Use a data recovery tool

If you wonder how data loss can occur, you should not look any further for answers – human errors, malware attacks, hardware failures, power cuts, natural disasters, or even simple negligence. In some cases, lost files are extremely important, and many straight out panic when such an unfortunate course of events happen. Due to this, you should always ensure that you prepare proper data backups on a regular basis.

If you were caught by surprise and did not have any backups to restore your files from, not everything is lost. Data Recovery Pro is one of the leading file recovery solutions you can find on the market – it is likely to restore even lost emails or data located on an external device.
