DealBarium is a name linked to a potentially unwanted program, meaning a software that is not recognized as dangerous by many antivirus programs because is not exactly a virus; we say “potentially unwanted” because DealBarium tends to be installed quietly.
DealBarium’s only two goals are to show as many ads as possible in our computers and to act like a spyware by analyzing and saving data about our browsing habits. These ads are usually seen as pop-ups, banners, fake ads on Google or green/blue underlined links among the text of every visited website.
Such ads are almost always tagged with the phrase Ads by DealBarium or Powered by DealBarium, thanks to these phrases many people come to realize they have been infected.
As told before, if DealBarium has successfully entered your system, everything you do online is being constantly analyzed and saved. This adware saves important data like your IP address, your OS version, your browser version, sites you visit, keywords used in searches, geographical setting information among other info that could be used to identify you personally.
DealBarium is mostly installed at the same time as some free tool downloaded from a freeware download platform (such as soft32, softonic.com, download.com, etc…) These platforms create their own install programs where they can make money by inserting allegedly useful tools that are offered as “malware free”. This practice is so widely spread that nowadays installing freeware is a synonym of installing malware. You can avoid this kind of problem in the future by customizing every install process you start and by taking the time to verify what’s being offered as optional so you can reject anything you don’t want.
You should know that DealBarium is considered as suspicious by 11 anti-viruses.
