Users often refer to ad-supported software as a virus because of its intrusive and annoying behavior. The same goes to SuperAdRemove browser extension and the ads it displays – Ads by SuperAdRemove. The extension may be promoted as a tool that blocks and removes unwanted advertisements but once installed, it may start generating the very same annoying pop-ups and banners. Clicking anything that appears on the browser and has ‘Ads by SuperAdRemove’ or ‘Brought by SuperAdRemove’ may cause unsafe browser redirects. That is why its uninstallation is recommended.

The adware has been reported to affect Google Chrome. SuperAdRemove may keep appearing during searching on Google and browsing. The application may not be found in the Control Panel – Programs & Features. Thus, manual removal may not be applicable. Instead, running a full system scan via antivirus software to locate all threats is highly recommended.
Why Do I See Ads by SuperAdRemove?
One of the popular ways that ad-supported software uses to sneak into users’ computers is the infamous bundling. Bundling means that the application was included in the package of a freeware product the user downloaded. Executing automatic downloads, without reading any Privacy statements or Download agreements, is the main reason why bundling is used in the first place. Thanks to packed downloads, third parties quickly monetize their platforms and generate money out of this air.
To avoid any of this from ever happening, opt for the Advanced software installer and view all products included in the initial package.
