We have no information about it being bundled with other applications nor is it distributed via free software sharing websites. The developer, so it still remains a mystery, but based on our research we have come to the conclusion that it is similar to Magnoplayer, which is also considered a potentially unwanted program.

YeaPlayer itself does not contain any malicious traits, and seems to work just fine. However, at some point during the installation or after, it installs adware-type applications, such as Searchult search, istartsurf.com, and a few others.
