OMGApp is based on the JustPlugIt engine that is commonly used for developing adware application. The engine itself is advertised on Justplug.it. The developers provide their clients with a platform, which they (the clients) can themselves by in control of. This opens up many opportunities that we will discuss later on. But it is important to note that OMGApp can be used by anyone to advertise anything. The application is mostly bundled with various malicious applications, such as EZDownloader and mystartsearch.com. Furthermore, the bundle is packed with various installers, such as InstallRex, Amonetize or Vittalia. Users might infect their computers with OMGApp is they click a fictitious download button on a torrent website.
