How to remove Supreme Adblocker from a browser
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What kind of application is Supreme Adblocker?
Supreme Adblocker is promoted as an application that blocks ads in videos and websites. However, we have tested this browser extension and found that it shows advertisements. For this reason, we classified Supreme Adblocker as adware. It is common for advertising-supported apps to be downloaded and installed (or added) inadvertently.
Supreme Adblocker in detail
Supreme Adblocker shows annoying advertisements that can open questionable web pages. Those pages can be designed to lure visitors into agreeing to receive notifications, extract sensitive information or money from users, promote/distribute potentially malicious software, etc.
Also, advertisements displayed by Supreme Adblocker may cause unexpected downloads and installations (if designed to execute certain scripts). In addition to showing ads, Supreme Adblocker can read and change data on all websites. It may be tracking users, which could cause issues related to online privacy and other problems.
Name | Ads by Supreme Adblocker |
Threat Type | Adware |
Symptoms | Your computer becomes slower than normal, you see unwanted pop-up ads, you are redirected to dubious websites. |
Distribution methods | Deceptive pop-up ads, free software installers (bundling), fake Flash Player installers, torrent file downloads. |
Damage | Internet browser tracking (potential privacy issues), display of unwanted ads, redirects to dubious websites, loss of private information. |
Malware Removal (Windows) | To eliminate possible malware infections, scan your computer with legitimate antivirus software. Our security researchers recommend using Combo Cleaner. |
More about adware
Adware can have the traits of a browser-hijacking app. Apps of this type hijack web browsers by changing their settings to promote fake/shady search engines. Usually, they change the default search engine, homepage and (or) new tab page. Pretty often, it is not possible to undo these changes without removing browser hijackers.
Examples of browser extensions that show ads too are Files Download Enhancer, Video Finder, and Simple AdBlock.
How did adware install on my computer?
In most cases, users install (or add) adware via fake installers downloaded from deceptive websites and advertisements designed to execute certain scripts or software bundles. They download and install it inadvertently. Screenshots of pages promoting Supreme Adblocker can be found below.
Software bundled with adware has settings (e.g., "Advanced", "Custom"), or ticked checkboxes in its installer. Adware (or other unwanted apps) gets installed when users finish software installation without changing those settings.
How to avoid installation of unwanted applications?
Always check downloaders and installers for unwanted apps and deselect then before downloading and installing programs. Download apps from official websites and legitimate stores only. Read reviews before installing/adding apps. Do not trust advertisements on questionable pages or notifications from websites of this kind.
If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
