When you download unfamiliar programs on your computer, you have to take into consideration the possibility that they might be associated with potential system threats. For instance, such programs like Payday Tool should not be allowed to enter your computer at any cost. This adware program may inadvertently expose you to corrupted third-party content that might eventually result in a malware infection. Hence, if you install this application accidentally on your PC, remove Payday Tool right now, and then get yourself a powerful antispyware tool that would help you find out whether you have more unwanted applications on-board. The chances are that you really do.
We believe that Payday Tool is just one of the many potential threats currently on your computer because this adware program might as well come bundled with freeware. It is also distributed via various download offers that users encounter on third-party commercial websites. If you click to download an application you have no information about, do not be surprised when the likes of Payday Tool enter your computer.
Truth be told, the program may also be downloaded from the official website at paydaytool.com. The website does not look anything out of the ordinary, but if you click the yellow download button, you would see that the setup file is hosted on a completely different server, and even if you were to cancel the download, this one single click on the download dialog box would open another tab that leads you to a commercial website. This just shows the extent to which Payday Tool is commercialized.
The problem clearly has been created to generate financial profit and the people behind it will do everything they can to achieve their aims. Thankfully, Payday Tool cannot cause an ultimate system crash or steal your money, but you need to be really careful about the links you click, especially if you do not know where a particular offer comes from.
Once the program is installed on the target computer, the application launches your web browser and opens acecashexpress.com/payday-loans, which is a legitimate website that barely has anything to do with Payday Tool. Do not be surprised to experience an erratic browser behavior when the application opens new browser windows with various commercial offers. Perhaps it would be just some annoying tendency that some users can ignore, but you should also keep in mind that Payday Tool collects information about you and shares it with third parties.
This information usually includes your web browsing habits, and it is used for online marketing tactics that help the people behind Payday Tool and other similar applications make easy money. The problem is that the pay-per-click system employed by adware programs and the applications, in general, could be too vulnerable to third-party exploitation. Therefore, whenever you do something with the adware program that is on your computer, you should remember that there is a chance you could get infected with malware if the program in question gets exploited.
Do not waste your precious time and remove Payday Tool immediately. Manual removal may not be enough to ensure that your computer is absolutely safe, so scanning the system with a licensed antispyware tool of your choice would also be a good idea.
