RebateRobot Removal Guide

It is natural to want to save money whenever you shop. Shopping online is not an exception, and there are actually a great number of adware applications and browser extensions that claim they can help you with that. RebateRobot is one of those adware applications that promise you can get your cash back whenever you shop. However, it is highly unlikely that RebateRobot can live up to its promises, and if you happen to have this application on your PC by chance, it would be a great idea to remove RebateRobot from the system immediately.

RebateRobot is definitely not a dangerous computer infection, but such adware applications are always related to specific computer security risks which should not be ignored. For example, RebateRobot can easily collect data on what websites you visit so that it would have your online profile. The online profile is necessary in order to generate custom pop-ups. Specially tailored commercial advertisements increase the possibility that users click them. It is not an illegal practice, but we should remember that RebateRobot is highly vulnerable to third party exploitation, so the pop-ups that users click might also be embedded with potentially corrupted content.

Click on corrupted pop-ups leads to dangerous websites that infect your system with more adware applications. In the worst case scenario your sensitive information (banking logins, passwords, email addresses, etc.) might be leaked to malevolent third party for marketing or malware distribution, and then you would be in a serious trouble. Thus, before any of that happens it is necessary to remove RebateRobot from your computer.

You might be wondering how RebateRobot enters computer systems if a direct download link is not available at rebaterobot.com official homepage. The answer is simple – bundled downloads. It is very common for freeware applications to travel bundled in one setup file, so whenever you install a new application from a third party file hosting website, there is a high chance that there will be some additional applications in the setup file as well. In order to avoid unnecessary applications and potentially security issues you should remain attentive and cautious during each and every software installation.

It might seem that we are over exaggerating on this one, but all big infections start with something small. Do not let RebateRobot be that small factor that leads towards ultimate computer system destruction, personal data leak and significant money loss. Remove RebateRobot from your computer via Control Panel and it will be enough for the extension to disappear from your browser as well.

Then scan the system with SpyHunter free scanner in search for other unwanted applications. If any potential threats are detected, invest in a powerful antispyware tool to remove them all.
