Fastoplayer is an adware, in other words a program whose financial funding always comes from advertising. There are two main lines in adware; in the first one we find programs that provide both an useful tool for users and the advertising campaign; the second one is filled with programs that have no useful part whatsoever, even if they claim otherwise (they tend to be only tricks to get the user to install the program). Fastoplayer is an element of the second category, we deal here with a useless video player that no doubt was based on some open source video player where they just added the advertising functions.
If you install Fastoplayer we can assure you that you’ll never see videos in it, what you’ll be seeing all the time however, are the tons of ads it will force upon you whenever you’re browsing the internet in any given browser, for this adware affects either Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer. Fastoplayer is installed quietly and you have no need to go to their official website to get it. It’s actually added to a good amount of legitimate programs offered in popular download platforms. This is why you must always remember to check and be careful to anything you install in your computer, specially if they are free.
You should know that Fastoplayer is considered as suspicious by 11 security software.
