Two most popular PUAs spreading methods

PUAs are not considered as highly dangerous. However, they still pose a risk of many threats. This is why we decided to inform you of all possible adware distribution practices. The first one is software bundling. In this method, PUAs are included with freeware and the packed items are offered as single unit for installation.

The trick behind this is simple. All apps are pre-selected for installation. SO, when installing any new software, you should opt for Custom/Advanced installation mode as then only you will be able to pick the unwanted programs and remove them from your system.

The second widely used method to distribute PUAs is fake Flash Player updates. Many people still don’t know that the support for this software was discontinued on 31st of December, 2020 and Adobe recommended all its users to delete the program for security purpose.
