Sometimes it seems that it would be great to have a program that would help you compress your files and send them in batches without the need to split them. At first glance, ZipperNew looks like it is one of the applications that could really do it, but the problem is that it is not the only thing this program can do. ZipperNew comes with specific side effects you simply must take into consideration if you want to keep your system safe. Our advice would be to remove ZipperNew from your computer, as this application is classified as a potentially unwanted program, and eventually it could lead to particular computer security problems.
Needless to say, potentially unwanted applications are usually more annoying than dangerous because their creators do not intend to steal your personal information or infect you with malware. However, the point is that such programs like ZipperNew could be taken advantage of by cyber criminals for corrupted content distribution. It is understandable why you have this program on your computer if you download the application yourself from zippernew.com. Yet the problem is that this application could also come bundled with freeware. As a result, users who launch software package installers seldom realize they install more than one unwanted application. They cometo think that ZipperNew and other similar programs are malicious infections that entered their systems surreptitiously.
That is not exactly true. Even when the program comes bundled with other software, it would not be able to enter your system if it were not for your consent. To put it simply, ZipperNew needs your permission to get installed on your PC, and, even though you might not be aware of it, you agree to install this program when you go through the third-party installation wizard.
If we were to take a closer look at the functions of this application, it would probably be hard to avoid anything suspicious. The official website suggests that ZipperNew “is the best alternative for decompressing your files. It’s clear and simple interface makes compression and decompression very effective, and above all, fast.” The site also offers expert review and testimonials from users who have used this application before. It is rather doubtful whether the testimonials are authentic, especially having in mind that ZipperNew is similar to VAFCompressor and ZipperPro, but the program certainly does not come across as something malicious.
The main thing that bothers us about this application is that it supports third-party advertising. When you run this program, it can display commercial ads within its interface, thus distracting you from the main task at hand, not to mention that ZipperNew can also generate pop-up ads that open new tabs on your default browser when you surf the Internet.
It is definitely very frustrating and risky at the same time because you can never know what kind of content will be embedded in the ads. If the application gets exploited by cyber criminals, one stray click could lead you to a malware-related web page, and then you could get infected with severe computer security threats.
Luckily, you can prevent that from happening by removing ZipperNew today. When you uninstall the application via Control Panel, please do not forget to scan your PC with a licensed antispyware tool.
