Ads by VeriBrowse

What is VeriBrowse?

Created by Conduit, VeriBrowse is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) claiming to increase the security and speed of Internet browsing. Although this functionality may seem legitimate and useful, be aware that VeriBrowse is categorized as adware, since it employs a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling' to install on Internet browsers without users' permission.

Bundling is a way to stealthily distribute applications together with other software, and therefore, most users inadvertently install VeriBrowse during download of free software from freeware download websites.

After successful infiltration on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox, VeriBrowse generates numerous intrusive online advertisements that include (but are not limited to) banner, pop-up/pop-under, in-text, interstitial, and other similar ads.

There is a high probability that clicking advertisements generated by VeriBrowse will lead to further high-risk adware or malware infections.
