MP3 Spun

MP3 Spun is an adware application that might present third-party ads through your default browser, email letters or even SMS messages on your phone. This entire annoying content could be harmful as well because it might lead you to doubtful websites. Under these circumstances, it is better to remove the program before anything bad happens. In fact, our researchers prepared step by step instructions, so that you could delete the adware from your system. If you leave the application on your computer, you will continue to receive third-party advertising. Also, you should be aware that you may have installed similar programs with MP3 Spun, as it provides a bundled installer on the official site.

As we mentioned, the application has a bundled installer on mp3spun.com that could suggest you to install different adware, browser hijackers or potentially unwanted applications (PUP), e.g. Search Know, Sweet-page.com, MyPcBackUp and many others. These suggestions depend on the region you live in, and they can change from time to time, too. What’s more, the adware itself could be bundled with other applications, especially if they come from suspicious file-sharing websites. When you launch a bundled installer, you should see special suggestions of additional freeware, e.g. MP3 Spun, and you can accept this offer or decline it. According to our specialists, these are the main two ways you might have obtained the adware.

The application has its main window that it uses to load third-party sites, although sometimes it may show you reliable web pages where you can download MP3 music files, stream music, and so on. The program has an annoying habit of opening a new browser window when you launch the adware. For instance, it could load paidsurveyupdate.com or other doubtful sites. Most of the advertisements or sponsored links will come from third-party partners. Generally, this source is considered as unknown, and it is advisable to avoid it because it could include sites with suspicious content. For example, you could be redirected to a site that promotes browser hijackers, PUPs, adware or even malware, such as Trojans, worms, etc.

Since the application is advertised as a tool that should allow you to see “Your favorite music sites in your Desktop,” you probably did not think that it could also display third-party ads. As we read the Terms and Conditions section on the application’s web page, we found out that once you download the adware “You agree to receive email advertising and other forms of advertising from MP3 Spun.” To make matters worse, it also says that MP3 Spun creators could “make available a service either directly or through third parties by which you can receive commercial text messages on your wireless device via short message service (“SMS Service”).” It means that at some point you might even get commercial ads via email letters or SMS messages. If you are already irritated with MP3 Spun ads and pop-ups on your browser, you should not wait until it finds a way to display even more of such third-party content to you.

You may have noticed that MP3 Spun’s publisher on the installation setup was named as Max Speedy (Fried Cookie Ltd). We have seen this publisher numerous of times while researching similar adware applications, e.g. Diet Runner, Healthy Days Hub, and others. Apparently, there is no information about this company on the Internet, so it may be a fictitious name. Usually, such adware applications have no use for their users, but they do generate money for its creators if you click the ads. Given these facts, you should not risk your computers safety and remove MP3 Spun as soon as possible.

Finally, we will provide you two removal options, so you can choose the easiest way for you to delete the application. The first method is not that difficult, although some users might not know how to open Control Panel on their computer. In that case, you should simply follow the instructions below this text. The second option requires you to install antimalware software. Afterward, you should launch the tool and set it to scan your system. Then, you can see the list of detections and the antimalware tool will allow you to delete them.
