Category Description: |
Program that delivers advertisements on your PC.
Note that many websites have their own advertising, unrelated to adware.
Adware is any software application in which advertising is displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which can be viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen and sometimes through text links or in integrated search results. Adware may or may not track personal information. It may also gather information anonymously or in aggregate only. Users should check the EULA and Privacy policy to ensure if the adware on their machines conforms to their standards. |
Comment: |
This a browser plug-in for Internet Explorer. This means that the TopText software cuddles up in Internet Explorer's process; from the outside, no-one can tell if either native Internet Explorer code or TopText is communicating to the Internet.
After installation of Toptext, network traffic logs revealed that there was unusual HTTP traffic between Internet Explorer and a foreign server, each time the user navigated between URLs. The data transmitted is small and cryptic so we don't know if this is confidential information or not.
This "product" continually mutates. |
