TomorrowGames Adware

What is TomorrowGames?

TomorrowGames is a bogus browser add-on offering various useful features - this is an attempt by the developers to present it as legitimate and useful. Users are often tricked by these claims and go on to install TomorrowGames believing that it will improve the Internet browsing experience.

In fact, this browser extension is categorized as adware and a potentially unwanted program (PUP). Commonly, TomorrowGames is distributed using a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling', which allows stealth installation on Internet browsers (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox) without users' consent.

This adware is often bundled with free software downloadable on freeware download websites. Once browsers are infiltrated, TomorrowGames employs a virtual layer (allowing placement of various graphical content on any website visited) to display intrusive online advertisements.

Ads may also open in a new browser tab or window - behavior that can lead to inadvertent ad clicks. Generated ads (inline text, interstitial, transitional, coupons, pop-ups, pop-unders, and many others) usually redirect to websites such as online stores, or various other sites offering services.

Despite this, users may also be redirected to untrusted websites containing infectious content. Therefore, clicking these advertisements may lead to high-risk computer infections.

TomorrowGames continually monitors users' Internet browsing activity. It also gathers information such as browser type and browsing details (websites visited, pages viewed, search queries, default search engine, cookies, browsing history, etc.), language settings, geographic location, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, time zone, and other similar data.

TomorrowGames' Privacy Policy states that the collected information is secure and unrelated to personal identity, however, the aforementioned information types can contain personally identifiable details, and therefore, these statements are false.

Some users may be unaware that their information (including bank details) is later shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) to generate revenue, and thus, leading to serious privacy issues or even identity theft. For these reasons, never install applications that track this type of information. TomorrowGames should be uninstalled from your system immediately.

TomorrowGames is identical to PrintOnKey, dotdo, and other browser plug-ins. It is also similar to other adware-type apps such as WordAnchor, Larparus, NetSpeed App, and other regular adware claiming to enable various features to enhance the Internet browsing experience. These promises are made to trick users into installation.

Adware-type apps such as TomorrowGames are bogus and provide no real value to the user - their purpose is to generate revenue for the developers by displaying ads and sharing collected information. Adware is often bundled with free software downloadable on freeware download websites such as soft32.com, softonic.com, downloads.com, and many others.

These sites enforce the use of 'download managers' to download the chosen software. Download managers (also called 'installers', 'download clients', 'download tools', etc.) supposedly 'speed-up and ease the download procedure', however, their purpose is to generate offers to install third party apps together with the selected software.

Although these promoted apps are presented as '100% legitimate and virus-free', they are mostly adware or malware. Decline any offers to install unrecognised third party software. If you have installed TomorrowGames, the following instructions will help you to eliminate this adware.

How did TomorrowGames install on my computer?

TomorrowGames usually installs via deceptive download managers or software installers that hide the installation within the 'Custom' or 'Advanced' options. Users often skip these steps and rush installation, thus making the bundling method effective for bogus installations.

The developers do not properly disclose installation of third party apps, and since many users do not pay enough attention when downloading/installing applications, they unwillingly install additional programs inadvertently.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Research shows that adware-type apps are often distributed via download applications used by freeware download websites. For this reason, you should select the direct download link when downloading software. The use of download apps is often enforced.

In this case, pay close attention to each step of the free software download procedure and ensure that only the chosen software is installed.

In fact, the desired program should be downloaded from the official website only. Furthermore, downloaded programs should be installed with the 'Custom' or 'Advanced' options, rather than 'Typical' or 'Regular' - this will reveal any bundled apps listed for installation and allow you to cancel them.
