Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is Trontizer?
The Trontizer browser add-on claims to make Internet browsing more productive by enabling multi-site searching, displaying website trust ratings, and displaying discount codes when visiting online shopping websites. This plugin is created by SuperWeb LLC and is compatible with Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox.
Whilst on initial inspection, this browser extension may seem legitimate, Internet users should be aware that Trontizer is categorized as adware since it tracks users' Internet browsing habits, generates unwanted ads, and is distributed using free software downloads (in some cases, fake downloads).
SuperWeb LLC, the company responsible for developing Trontizer, releases identical browser extensions under different names in order to avoid detection by legitimate antivirus and anti-spyware programs.
In most cases, this extension installs on users' Internet browsers without their consent using a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling'.
Internet users should be aware that, today, most free software download websites (including popular sites such as download.com and softonic.com) use dubious 'download clients', which offer installation of additional browser plugins together with the chosen free software.
To avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications, Internet users should closely inspect each freeware download step and decline installation of advertised browser plugins.
A clear indication that your Internet browsers are infiltrated with this adware are "Trontizer Ads", "Trontizer Deals", and "Powered by Trontizer" advertisements visible on various websites whilst browsing the Internet. Previous variants of this adware were named BrowseSmart, Storimbo, SurfEnhance, amongst many others.
Clicking on ads generated by these browser plugins can lead to malware and virus infections, and moreover, computer users should be aware that these extensions record Internet browsing habits including IP addresses, unique identifier numbers, operating systems, browser information, URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries entered, and other software and hardware information.
If you have unwillingly installed this browser plugin, use the removal guide provided to eliminate it from your Internet browser/s.
