ib.adnxs.com is one of many servers that distribute ads on the Internet. This server doesn’t directly infect your operating system, but you’ll obviously still notice that your browser opens an ad insert with ib.adnxs.com as its URL. This means that there’s at least some sort of adware lodged in your computer. If you want to get rid of the ads that ib.adnxs.com opens, you must first expose and remove the adware that opens this address. Be aware that several malware programs could have infected your machine.
Usually, when an adware program is installed on your computer’s system, it does so without your knowledge and along with other free software. Each time you install freeware applications from third-party websites, there’s a strong chance that they’ll also offer to install a potentially unwanted program. That’s why you must be extremely careful when you install free programs. The pop-ups that ib.adnxs.com displays are not harmful unless they’re used by malicious software programs. One thing is sure: it slows down your computer, pollutes your screen and can lead to privacy issues. Therefore, it is recommended that you get rid of ib.adnxs.com as soon as you start seeing advertisements from that address.
It’s possible to remove unwanted programs manually with the control panel, and also to remove plug-ins from your browser manually. However, since we don’t know the name of the adware that opens ib.adnxs.com advertisements, we suggest using the free tools displayed below in order to locate all the unwanted applications that are on your machine and to remove them accordingly.
