Downloadme

Downloadme is not a program you should download. It is one of those programs that require urgent removal because it can breach your security and open up security backdoors without your realizing it. Although we classify this app as a potentially unwanted program (PUP), you should not be mistaken by this light-sounding classification. If you do not delete this program from your operating system, you might encounter unreliable parties, and you might put your virtual security on the line. If you are confused about the removal of Downloadme in any way, please continue reading.

According to the latest research, Downloadme is identical to EZDownloader Pro, LightningDownloader, and Fdownloader. All four of these potentially unwanted programs deserve removal because they do not offer very reliable services. Although you are informed that these supposedly reliable download managers can convert media files and even integrate antivirus protection, it is highly unlikely that you will be able to use it without encountering security risks. You certainly should not trust these PUPs as authentic security tools. In fact, if you do not take care of your virtual security right away, you might find yourself removing even more unreliable programs and computer infections.

The information on download-me.info suggests that Downloadme can help you “manage download tasks and processes.” Instead of focusing on promotional information, you should move to the Privacy Policy. This document reveals that Downloadme can inject advertisements! We are sure that you did not want to install an advertising tool, and this is a good reason to delete this PUP. If you postpone the removal, make sure you ignore the ads shown to you, unless you know the parties that stand behind them, and you are sure that their intentions are harmless. Unfortunately, there are many unreliable advertisers who use misleading offers to expose unsuspecting users to devious scams.

Your personal information might be at risk with Downloadme active on your operating system. This program tracks your activity, and, as disclosed via the Privacy Policy, personally identifiable information could be collected by “Software, Site or Services.” Needless to say, it is unclear how this information will be used or by whom, and this is why Downloadme is extremely suspicious. We strongly advise removing this potentially unwanted program not only because its services are highly questionable but also because it might breach your virtual security. This is a risk that needs to be taken seriously.

You should be careful about what kinds of removal steps you take. If you uninstall Downloadme but do not take care of other potentially existing threats – if they exist – your virtual security will remain vulnerable. Hopefully, you need only to delete Downloadme, but if other threats exist, we cannot recommend anything better than automated malware detection and removal software. Use this software to clean your operating system and block malicious programs from attacking in the future. We welcome all questions about the removal of Downloadme or other malicious programs in the comments box below. Post your questions and we will respond as soon as we can.
