DPower (short for DiskPower) is a parasite developed by Eorezo; this company specializes on adware (advertising sofware) and has won quite the reputation for its activities since a couple of years. DPower is usually found in parasite distribution platforms such as Amonetize where it is offered as cracks or keygens. Other platforms could use known free programs to insert DPower or suggest installations like Flash and Java updates mainly on illegal streaming websites.
Eorezo’s goal is quite simple, this company wants to use your computer as a distribution channel by showing huge amounts of ads, so they can make a lot of money. Of course this turn into a real nightmare for all affected users. DPower harasses its victims with annoying amounts of ads, and what’s worse is that it never comes alone, usually some other parasite is installed at the same time.
DPower opens the browser on its own accord to show its ads, it could happen at any given moment no matter what you’re doing, you could be browsing, working or playing on your computer when it happens. The adware attached to DPower is called WeMonetize.
