TopShape.me

If you downloaded TopShape.me thinking that it update all of your computer’s drivers for you, then you are in for an unpleasant surprise. It is actually an adware program that you ought to remove. It has been created with only one intention – to generate advertising revenue. You can forget about this program updating your computer’s drivers, because it will not do that. It has no capabilities to do so. Its developers made it up to trick people into installing TopShape.me. This program has no place on your computer, so the sooner you remove it the better. This short article contains essential information about this adware, so, if you have it, then you might want to know more about it before taking action against it.

TopShape.me is a product of a shady software developer called Keen Internet Technologies Ltd. This company is also responsible for releasing a potentially unwanted program known as Video Search Tools Plus. So this company is no stranger to developing useless software. TopShape.me is known to be distributed on a dedicated website. Nevertheless, that is not its only means of distribution. We have found that it can also be bundled with other shady software and put up for download on freeware sharing websites. Our research shows that when it comes bundled, it is installed without permission, which is one of the reasons why it is considered malicious.

These days, the Internet is full of junk programs that do not do anything useful. When you see a program that says it can keep all of your computer’s drivers up to date, just look the other way, because this deceptive tactic is well-known in the cyber security industry. TopShape.me does not even have a graphical user interface, so any driver updating capabilities are out of the question. But you will see this program’s presence in the form of coupons and pop-ups. Here is an excerpt from its website: "We along with third-party vendors, such as Google use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions, and other ad service functions as they relate to our website." So there you have it, its ad-showing capabilities cannot be argued.

We also want to make you aware that TopShape.me will collect information about you. Here is another excerpt from its Privacy Policy. "It's also important to note that we allow third party behavioural tracking." We think that allowing such practices to persist is unacceptable from a security point of view, because there is no way of knowing how third parties are going to use or, indeed, misuse the collected data. As high-tech as this adware is you should not count on it to present relevant and reliable content. Advertisers who use this program’s services change constantly and the promoted content can shift from reliable to unreliable in a matter of days.

So, we encourage you not to risk your computer’s security by allowing TopShape.me to remain on it. If you are one of those users who thought that this program actually updates drivers, then you should be furious as a result of this deception. Clearly, there is no other alternative than to remove TopShape.me, because it is just another adware program.
