Users are becoming increasingly aware of potential threats they may encounter online. Unfortunately, this awareness is often exploited by the likes of WebCheck. It is not a dangerous computer infection, but the necessity of this application is highly questionable.

It is plain to see why users may think that WebCheck is a useful application. The official website at webcheck1.com claims that the application can easily protect users from phishing attacks, make the internet surfing a lot more secure and overall enhance your browser performance. These are the usual promotional tag lines for any adware application out there. Even if WebCheck does protect you from cyber criminals itself, you cannot forget the fact that the program is ad-supported. As a result, WebCheck is vulnerable to a third-party exploitation.

Do not be surprised when you see a pop-up offering you something related to your most recent web search. By tracking your web browsing activity, WebCheck increases the chances of you clicking the ads and consequently – the app’s creators making profits.

Unfortunately, WebCheck and other adware applications are often exploited to promote potentially corrupted content.
