ClickTheApp

There is not so much information about ClickTheApp program; however, we are 100% sure that this program is untrustworthy and it is very important to remove it from the system. Researchers working at pcthreat.com have tested this program and revealed that it is a typical advertising-supported application (adware) that can randomize its name. In other words, ClickTheApp is based on the JustPlugIt engine and it is a useless program that has been developed to generate money for the publisher. The only way to stop all those advertisements that it displays on the screen is to delete ClickTheApp. It is not very easy to remove this program because you will have to delete extensions from your browsers. Luckily, we know how to do that; we have even prepared the manual removal instructions and placed them below this article in order to help you.

At first sight, it does not seem that ClickTheApp is an untrustworthy program. In fact, many users do not even understand that it is responsible for the presence of commercial advertisements unless they notice an ad with the “Ads by ClickTheApp” or a similar label. Actually, it is not surprising at all that this program displays commercials because it is an adware program. Even though its main aim is to lure users into clicking on ads, specialists have noticed that it performs several other activities too. According to the researchers working at pcthreat.com, there is no doubt that some details about your web browsing activities are collected in order to display relevant ads. On top of that, it seems that this program can connect to the Internet without your permission.

It is very likely that this program has entered your system when you have clicked on the wrong button on torrent, file-sharing, or a similar website. In fact, these websites might be really dangerous in a sense that you might end up with some kind of threats instead of a movie or another useful file. Luckily, you can protect your system rather easily – you just have to acquire an antimalware tool. According to our researchers, malware will not be able to enter your system from the day you enable your security tool. We highly recommend making sure that the tool which you are going to install is really trustworthy.

As has been already mentioned, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox users will have to remove extensions from browsers in order to fully get rid of ClickTheApp. If you use Internet Explorer, it is enough to delete the program via Control Panel. You can use our manual removal instructions, but it is better to use SpyHunter or a similar scanner for this matter. We suggest using an automatic tool because it will remove ALL the existing infections. In other words, it will erase ClickTheApp and other undesirable programs that have entered your system together with this adware.
