Remove AtuZi

AtuZi is an adware program that’s used for marketing reasons only. It usually gets installed on browsers when you download freeware from the Internet. Atuzi can link to online shops that want to promote their products. This adware program can latch onto the 3 main browsers on the market: Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox. Even though it’s not a technically a virus, this potentially unwanted program (or PUP) can cause other inconveniences for its victims besides just displaying ads. Atuzi poses a risk, especially concerning confidentiality and respect for privacy. This adware program can actually access everything you do on the Internet.

As we’ve discussed before, Atuzi usually disseminates from installing free programs. That’s why you should pay special attention when downloading and installing free programs. Even if you’re downloading a well-known software program and the downloading website looks reliable, you should always be extremely careful because potentially unwanted programs like Atuzi could get installed on your PC. Customize the installation if you can and never click too quickly on the “Next” button.
