LookThisUp functions in a slightly different way compared to its counterparts but achieves the same results. Instead of installing browser extensions,  the adware will create an additional system process called lokthisup.exe that will be the reason your browser is flooded with numerous commercial third-party adverts and annoying pop-ups. LookThisUp will annoy you to no end. The process can be killed but it will auto-start with your operating system; thus, a complete removal of LookThisUp is needed if you wish to stop the annoying activities caused by this adware.

Unfortunately, annoyance and frustration caused by LookThisUp are not the key reasons it should be removed. What is more alarming is that those adverts displayed by LookThisUp could turn out to be quite malicious.

They could be promoting various fake updates and by allowing such update to take place your system is also very likely to get infected.
