Surftosave

Surftosave is a free advertising-supported program, and, if you have it on your computer, it is high time you removed it. The Surftosave program delivers commercial and non-commercial offers to you in an attempt to enhance your browsing experience. Surftosave pop-ups include interstitial ads, in-line advertisements, web banners, coupons, and some other types of advertisements. The program is designed to display advertisements on various websites, mainly shopping websites, and, if you are reading this report, you have probably learned how obtrusive those Surftosave ads are.

Surftosave is known to be related to the website surftosave.net. That website is not working at the moment, and it is difficult to determine whether it has ever been launched or was shut down temporarily. Nevertheless, it is worth pointing out that advertising-supported programs such as Surftosave are usually distributed alongside other free programs, and the official website is just one attempt to make you think that the program is safe for you. The truth is that the fact that a program is presented to the audience on a sophisticated website does not mean that the program is reliable.

All adware programs analyzed by our research teams are known to be capable of recording certain anonymous information, and Surftosave is no exception. Software developers are interested in your browsing behavior, and the information collected is usually used for creating new advertising strategies. For example, Surftosave may record your clicks, impressions, search terms, browser settings, browsing history, and other non-personally identifiable information that is available on your browsers. If you want to protect information related to your browsing sessions, you should remove Surftosave from the computer as soon as you can.

However, it is not enough to eliminate Surftosave from the computer, because your unprotected computer can get infected at any time. Our instructions below should help you remove Surftosave, but we recommend that you install a reputable anti-malware program. The Internet is full of malicious programs aimed at compromising the operating system and stealing your personal information, and the more you browse, the higher the risk of getting your computer infected. We recommend using SpyHunter because this anti-malware program easily removes Surftosave and fights off Trojan horses, browser hijackers, adware programs, fake anti-virus programs, rootkits, cookies, and other unwanted and unreliable programs so that you can browse the Internet safely
