Be aware of adware
Hey friends!
Yesterday some of the users reported a strange issue. A browser suddenly opened pages of the installation.club website. As we understood those were pages of various programs and they opened just randomly, Adguard’s or LastPass’ pages, for instance. We have nothing to do with this and have already taken measures. It now seems to be settled, but anyway, please be careful.
What happened?
 **What to do?** We recommend everyone affected to do the following:- check computer for viruses with some reputable anti-virus scanner
- check computer with adwcleaner (great soft against adware)
- check the list of browser extensions you use and uninstall all suspicious ones (one of them is most likely to blame)
And in order to avoid adware on your device, don’t download software on unreliable websites, better visit official ones.
Be careful when installing browser extensions. Always check what you are downloading!
Sincerely,
Adguard team
Mr. Adguard
Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) posted a peculiar guideline, which goal is to help publishers fight against ad blockers.
It has been a while since the last major update of Adguard browser extension, but a few days ago we did it! We released the new version of our extensions. This release contains one important change for the Firefox version and some technical features with our selector library.
