SaleSale

SaleSale is one of those programs that will make your browsing session a real pain. Its title implies that it has something to do with sales, which is correct, because it is an adware-type program that you should remove as soon as the opportunity arises. It is not an immediate threat that could inflict severe consequences on your computer, but the content this program advertises is quite unreliable. No adware application is absolutely safe, especially when it is made by a professional adware developer. Programs such as SaleSale can be used to promote adware and other shady software. One thing is for sure: It will not improve your browsing experience whatsoever.

What used to be unknown malware developers have become legitimate online advertising companies. For example SaleSale’s developer is called JustPlugIt Ltd. This company provides its clients with the ability to create their own adware programs in accordance with their specific needs. Their clients just put their specifications on the table and the developers at JustPlugIt do all of the work. The most worrying part is that the developers give their clients full control of the program, which means that the advertisers can tune it however they want, so they can set it to promote unreliable content. The clients can also choose the program's dissemination methods. We have found that SaleSale is distributed via websites that promote pirated material such as game and program cracks. It utilizes the InstallRex installer which not only contains SaleSale but can also feature other adware applications from different developers. Before we move on to how this application works, it would be beneficial to mention the names of some of this program’s previously released clones. So SaleSale is very similar to MicroCover, TwistGrips, MetroCleaner, and other programs. Note that all of JustPlugIt’s adware features semi-random names that randomize the upper and lower case letters.

Of course, SaleSale's only objective is to make money for its developers at the expense of not only your computer’s security, but also your own personal security. SaleSale is known to collect information about the users who have it installed. It collects all the data it can get its hands on. The information it collects includes but is not limited to Internet Protocol (IP) address, approximate geographical location, browsing history, search queries, ads viewed, and so on. This information is collected for a reason: It is used to present targeted advertisements that come in the form of typical yet annoying coupons, banners, in-texts, and so on. We recommend that you remove this application not only because the ads are annoying, but also because SaleSale is bound to display unreliable ads that may promote shady online shopping websites and unreliable software.

Many security experts, including ourselves, think that SaleSale is unreliable, because it might advertise unreliable third-party content that could inflict detrimental consequences on your computer. We think that you will agree that there is no point in taking a risk by keeping this application. So if you want to take action right away, please consult the instructions we have provided below.
