The article you are now reading is focused on n121adserv Ads. It will provide you with information about this program’s typical features, possible unpleasant characteristics, as well as ways to remove it and avoid it. It is possible that you have researched this topic before. Thank you for choosing us to help you deal with it.

Most probably you are interested in the information on that page because:

Recently you have noticed a great number of possibly constantly appearing ads whenever you are trying to use the Internet, visit a web page or watch a movie online. The origin of those ads is n121adserv – an Adware-type piece of software. Actually, Adware does exactly that – the programs based on that software tend to display numerous ads in many various shapes, colors and sizes. The reason why this software is programmed to generate as many advertisements as possible is that even the smallest ads and the ones you don’t even click on can increase the profits of their creators. In fact, this scheme is called “pay per (every single) click” and is a completely legitimate and unusually successful business strategy. Now that we have defined what sort of a problem you have to deal with, you might have no idea in what way it has become a part of your system.  So, let’s elaborate on the potential distribution methods.

• Maybe you have caught Adware when you have opened a suspicious email from a probably unknown sender. Spam emails can serve as a means of distribution;
• It is possible that n121adserv Ads has infiltrated your system from a torrent or a contaminated web page. They are also possible options for Adware’s transport;
• Although there might be even more diverse sources of Adware-like products, the most typical means of spreading such ad-generating software appears to be software bundle.
  If you are not aware of the meaning of this term, there it is – a software bundle is actually any free program that gets distributed on the Internet. As such programs are usually completely free of charge, their developers might add Adware in the bundle with them in order to make money out of the ads.

!!! Please, bear in mind that Adware-type software is often included in the software bundles, but it cannot enter your system by itself. It’s necessary that you let it in. And most users do so by installing new programs on their computers and selecting the improper option of the installer – the Default (Easy or Quick) one. In this way they may be completely unaware of what programs are integrated into their computers.
The most efficient way in which you can avoid n121adserv Ads and any other Adware is to simply use the correct feature of the installation wizard – the Custom (Advanced) one.  In this way no ads will be allowed to bother your browsing experience.

Are we actually talking about a harmful program? Is n121adserv Ads “Virus”?

Many people might disagree as they refer to it as n121adserv Ads “Virus”, yet they would be wrong. n121adserv  is not a virus. Keep calm – Adware is not even half as dangerous as it is irritating. It may produce endless streams of pop-ups and banners, but it will NEVER copy, steal, destroy or compromise any of your data like malware and viruses do. For example, Ransomware as the worst possible virus out there encrypts your files and then blackmails you into paying ransom. n121adserv Ads, as typical Adware, is NOT programmed to perform such dishonest activities.

Still – are there any possible threats, however minimal, that might come from Adware?

You have heard the saying- where there is smoke, there is inevitably some fire. The case with Adware is the same. Logically, its quite negative reputation is a result of some rather questionable practices its creators might have programmed it to do.
Such shady activity includes the research that some Adware-like programs may do into your surfing history. When they do that, they are able to guess what products or services you could be interested in. That data about your habitual browsing activities might eventually be sold to 3rd parties (possibly interested vendors).

Though it’s very unlikely, some ads produced by n121adserv Ads might lead to suspicious websites with even more suspicious content. Also, depending on the resources of your PC, the generated ads might slow down your entire machine, as their production usually consumes a lot of your machine’s resources. Nothing more serious than that may come from Adware.

Nevertheless, how can we get rid of n121adserv Ads?
