Obrona VPN Ads

What is Obrona VPN?

Created by Red Sky LLC, Obrona VPN claims to protect users' Internet connections by encrypting all data sent and received. It allows anonymous use of the Internet and provides users the freedom to access blocked content. 

While this functionality may seem legitimate, this app is categorized as adware or a potentially unwanted application since it generates intrusive third party ads ('Ads by Obrona VPN' or 'Obrona VPN Deals') including, for example, banner, text, and pop-up advertisements. Clicking ads displayed by Obrona VPN can result in high-risk malware infections.

As well as generating deceptive ads, this application tracks users' Internet browsing activity by recording IP addresses, unique identifier numbers, operating systems, browser information, URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries entered, and other software and hardware details.

This unwanted tracking can result in serious privacy issues or identity theft. At time of research, this adware was distributed using deceptive free software 'download clients' that trick Internet users into installing Obrona VPN without their consent. To avoid further damage and inconvenience, you are advised to eliminate this potentially unwanted application from your computer.

Obrona VPN is similar to other adware that infiltrates computers via freeware downloads. Examples include GoCheapR, CinemP+, Ciuvo, and Hotspot Shield. These applications claim to enhance the Internet browsing experience, however, they merely diminish browser performance and cause intrusive ads.

To avoid installation of these potentially unwanted applications, express caution when downloading and installing free software since, today, most freeware download websites employ deceptive download clients to monetize their free services.

Download clients are small programs that manage the download process and offer additional download of advertised browser plug-ins with the chosen freeware. To avoid adware infections, decline installation of any promoted browser extensions.

When installing downloaded free programs, choose the 'Advanced' or 'Custom' installation options - this will reveal any intended installation of 'bundled' adware. Internet users who observe ads generated by Obrona VPN should use this removal guide to eliminate this potentially unwanted program from their computers.

Previously discovered adware created by Red Sky LLC was called Obrona BlockAds.
