WizzWifiHotspot

Have you been experiencing a constant onslaught of annoying pop-up ads? Have you installed some freeware applications lately? This might be related because such programs like WizzWifiHotspot are known to be responsible for random pop-ups that appear on your browser when you surf the Internet. This program must have been installed on your computer accidentally, and there is no need to panic because it is not a dangerous infection. However, whenever you need to deal with trash, you usually throw it out, and that is something you have to do with WizzWifiHotspot as well. In other words, the sooner you remove this application, the better.

In fact, WizzWifiHotspot might not be the only unwanted program you have to deal with. What are the chances you have downloaded this application from wizzwifihotspot.wizzproducts.com? You probably had no idea this application was on your system until it began spamming you with ads. That is why; it is safe to assume that there might be more adware applications on your system. The point is that such applications usually get distributed bundled in one third-party installer, and users often download and install such programs without even realizing what might be standing behind some third-party file format converter or an online game.

To find out whether your computer is absolutely safe, you should run a full system scan with a security product you can trust. You will get a list of all the unwanted programs once the scan is complete, and then you will be able to decide what to do with all of that. Our advice would be to remove the programs you neither trust nor need.

However, right now we focus on WizzWifiHotspot and the potential consequences of keeping this application on your PC for too long. When we go to the official website, it greets us with the following tagline: “Share your connection with your friend on one click and transform your computer on a wifi hotspot.” Aside from the poor grammar in this one sentence, it might seem that the application offers a rather decent function. You do not need to buy any adapters or what not to turn your PC into a device that “broadcasts” a wi-fi signal.

Nevertheless, here a question arises. If you are using a Wi-Fi connection, it means that you have a router somewhere. If you have a router, “your friend” can connect to the wireless internet as long as you tell them the password. So, why would you need to transform your PC into a Wi-Fi hub for that? You might say that you are on a mobile device, and you want to share your data, but if that is the case, then your mobile device definitely has the mobile hotspot function that can be easily toggled in the settings. Therefore, you can easily see that the application is practically redundant.

Aside from the fact that it does not really provide you with anything useful, there is also the “dark” side to it. If you check the program’s privacy policy, you will find a line that says the program is not responsible for the third-party content security. In other words, the application may expose you to third-party content that might be dangerous, and you would not be able to blame it about it.

This means that, first, you have to be extremely careful when you encounter third-party ads and, second, you should terminate the application as soon as possible to avoid the worst case scenario. When it comes to adware, the worst case scenario is obviously the malicious exploitation. Sometimes, the third party that embeds its contents in the WizzWifiHotspot ads could be cyber criminals who want to redirect you to malware-related websites. If you land there, you would be only one step away from a serious malware infection, like Trojan, ransomware, worm, and so on.

Prevent that from happening by removing WizzWifiHotspot today. Open your Control Panel and uninstall the application in a single mouse click. If you have never uninstalled a program before, check out the instructions below. It is not complicated, and it should not take much time.

To protect your computer from similar threats, please get yourself a licensed antispyware tool. Users encounter malicious threats on a daily basis, and you need a strong sidekick to help you deal with them all. A computer security tool of your choice can help you with that.
