Internet Speed Checker is an unwanted program that enters a computer when you download free software from download sites such as softonic or through the installation of fake Java or Flash plugins or by fake software updates. You should always remember to customize the software installation from the internet: it’s quite possible to add potentially unwanted programs when you choose the recommended installation. Also, avoid clicking on ads telling that your software or one of your plugins is outdated. Your browser is not able to know the condition of your installed programs on Windows.
Internet Speed Checker claims to inform you about the speed of your internet connection which is actually a pretext for displaying advertising on sites that you visit. You can spot these ads with the mention Ad by Internet Speed Checker or Ads by Internet Speed Checker displaying anywhere in the form of banners, pop-ups or directly as text keywords on webpages.
