MyAppsCloud is promoted as a desktop application that should notify you when updates for your other programs are available. Certainly, this makes MyAppsCloud seem as though it is a very useful program. However, research has found that the program is not as helpful as its developers claim it is.
This is not more than another adware program. It will not provide the services it promises. Instead, it will start producing numerous advertisements while you are browsing the web. Such programs are considered to be unwanted ones as they can lead to some risks for the system’s security. We strongly recommend getting rid of MyAppsCloud as soon as possible.
What Does MyAppsCloud Do?
Once installed, MyAppsCloud will attach an add-on to your browser. This will happen on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome. Then, the browser extension will start generating advertisements whenever you browse the web. The ads will appear constantly and in a variety of formats: pop-up, banner, in-text, etc. The browser extension will also be able to collect information on your browsing. This way, it will be able to present targeted advertisements to each user. In most cases, the ads will present different deals, discounts, coupons, and promotions. Still, it is not recommended that you click on any of them.
Is MyAppsCloud Harmful?
The program itself is not dangerous. However, the ads that it shows can be. You can never be certain that they will lead to reliable websites. In fact, cyber criminals often take advantage of adware to promote their malicious websites. This means that you could be transferred to a dangerous web page by clicking on one of the ads. Then, there are a couple of things that can happen:
- Your system gets attacked by malware. This will lead to cyber criminals stealing all sensitive information you store on it.
- A phishing scheme is attempted, where cyber criminals try to trick you into sharing your sensitive information yourself.
