How to remove DLVPlayer from Mac?

What is DLVPlayer?

DLVPlayer is distributed via fake Adobe Flash Player installer, therefore, it is very likely that most users would install in unknowingly. Apps that are distributed like DLVPlayer is are categorized as potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). It is important to mention that it is common for fake installers to be designed to install various browser hijackers, adware-type apps, or PUAs of other types as well.

The DLVPlayer app is not malicious, however, it is distributed in a deceptive way ant its installer may be used to distribute other potentially unwanted software like some adware or browser hijackers. Simply said, users who would have DLVPlayer installed on their computers may have other PUAs installed on it (or a browser) as well. Adware-type apps generate ads like coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, etc., browser hijackers promote fake search engines (their addresses) by changing browser settings. It is worthwhile to mention that ads that adware-type apps display may be designed to cause unwanted downloads, or even installations by running certain scripts, and changes made by browser hijackers cannot be undone unless users uninstall them.

Additionally, it is common for browser hijackers and adware-type apps to be designed to collect browsing data (e.g., IP addresses, geolocations, addresses of opened websites, entered search queries). What is worse, in some cases they could be capable of accessing sensitive details as well and gathered information could be monetized by selling it to third parties (potentially cyber criminals), or in other ways. Therefore, such apps could be the culprit of issues related to Internet browsing safety, online privacy or even identity theft.

Typically, fake installers that are used to distribute apps like DLVPlayer are promoted on various deceptive pages, for example, on pages like 'Flash Player Update Download New Version' or 'Your Flash Player Is Out Of Date'. It is worthwhile to mention that users do not visit such pages intentionally (they are promoted via deceptive ads, other pages of this kind or PUAs).

How did DLVPlayer install on my computer?

As mentioned in previous paragraphs, DLVPlayer is distributed via fake installer that mimics the installer for Adobe Flash Player. It is important to know that fake, third party installers can be used as tools for malware distribution (like ransomware, Trojan-type malware) as well. Download and installation setups of other programs can be used to distribute PUAs too, usually it is done by including PUAs in those setups as extra offers. When users do not change their settings (like 'Advanced', 'Custom'), or they do not untick certain checkboxes, then they download and/or install not only the desired software but also agree with unwanted offers. In some cases PUAs are distributed via deceptive ads by designing them to run certain scripts. Although, those ads cause unwanted downloads or even installations only if users click them.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Third party downloaders (or installers), unofficial websites, Peer-to-Peer networks (like torrent clients, eMule) and other similar tools, sources should not be used neither to download or install any software. It should be downloaded from official websites and via direct links. Download and/or installation setups that have settings like 'Custom', 'Advanced' should be always checked for unwanted offers and those offers should be declined before completing downloads and/or installations. Ads on shady websites should not be clicked as well - quite often they are used to promote untrustworthy websites or even cause unwanted downloads, installations. Suspicious, unwanted extensions, add-ons or plug-ins that installed on a browser should be removed, the same should be done with programs of this kind that are installed on the operating system. If your computer is already infected with DLVPlayer, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate this adware.

How to remove GlobalAsset adware from Mac?

What is GlobalAsset?

GlobalAsset is an piece or rogue software, categorized as adware. It also possesses browser hijacker traits. Following successful infiltration, GlobalAsset delivers intrusive advertisement campaigns and modifies browser settings - in order to promote fake search engines. In addition, most adware-types and browser hijackers collect browsing-related information. Due to the dubious methods used to distribute GlobalAsset, it is classified as a PUA (Potentially Unwanted Application) as well.

Adware delivers pop-ups, surveys, banners, coupons and other intrusive adverts. They limit browsing speed and website visibility (by overlaying page content). However, these ads are more than just a nuisance - they also pose a threat to device/user safety. Since once clicked on, intrusive advertisements redirect to various untrustworthy/malicious sites and some can even download/install software (e.g. PUAs) without user consent.

Browser hijackers assign the addresses of fake web searchers as browsers' homepage, default search engine and new tab/window URLs. Hence, with such a piece of software installed: every single new browser tab/window opened and search query typed into the URL bar - redirect to the promoted address. Fake search engines are seldom able to provide search results, so they redirect to (or cause redirection chains ending with) Google, Bing, Yahoo and other legitimate ones. Furthermore, browser hijackers can undo any changes users try to make to their browsers and/or restrict/deny access to the browser settings outright.

Most PUAs (adware and browser hijackers included) have data tracking abilities. They monitor browsing activity (visited URLs, viewed pages, searched queries, etc.) and gather sensitive information inferred from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details). What is more, the collected data usually contains personally identifiable information. PUA developers monetize this information by sharing it with and/or selling it to third parties. In summary, presence of unwanted software on devices can result in system infections, financial losses, severe privacy issues and even identity theft. To ensure device integrity and user privacy, all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - immediately removed from it.

LogarithmicBalance, GenerationUpdater, DigitalRecord and HelperService are some examples of other adware-type apps. They appear ordinary and harmless. Users are lured with offers of various 'useful' and 'advantageous' features. However, despite how good the advertised functionalities may sound - they are rarely operational. In fact, this applies to practically all PUAs. The sole purpose of unwanted software is to generate revenue for the developers. Therefore, instead of delivering on any promises, PUAs can run intrusive advertisement campaigns, cause redirects, hijack browsers and collect private data.

How did GlobalAsset install on my computer?

Select PUAs have 'official' download webpages. These applications are more commonly downloaded/installed together with other programs. This deceptive marketing technique of packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions - is called 'bundling'. By rushing through download/installation processes (e.g. by skipping steps, using pre-set options, etc.) - users risk unintentionally allowing bundled content into their devices; thereby endangering systems with potential infections. Intrusive adverts proliferate PUAs as well. Upon being clicked, the ads can execute scripts to make stealthy downloads/installations.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is recommended to research software prior to download/installation and/or purchase. Only official and trustworthy download channels must be used. Since dubious download sources, e.g. unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks and other third party downloaders - often offer harmful and/or bundled content. When downloading/installing, it is important to read terms, explore all available options, use the 'Custom/Advanced' settings and opt-out from additional apps, tools, features, etc. Intrusive advertisements appear legitimate and ordinary, however they redirect to various unreliable and questionable sites (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating and many others). In case of encounters with such ads and/or redirects, the system must be checked and all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - immediately removed from it. If your computer is already infected with GlobalAsset, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate this adware.
