Round World is an adware; it will distribute publicity among all your browsers (Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox). Round World is installed with modified setup programs meant to install free and popular software. For example, we can see here a setup program that will allegedly install Flash, if we go too fast while installing we won’t notice how it will also install Round World…
This is what’s been written in tiny font in these 2 setup programs:
In order to improve your web experience, Round World sets up new functions, content and tools fulfilling the goal of making your life easier. This software allows to search in several different places at once, offering related search results, sales and discount coupons, web sites evaluations, and price comparisons. Additional capabilities might be added automatically after installation. Round World content includes non-affiliated ads. Browser options will be changes automatically during installation. User information is saved and shared for different purposes including advertisement. Uninstall is possible by means of your Add/Remove programs options. Read all conditions thoroughly before going any further.
After this you can hardly say that you weren’t warned !
Round World has its own official site were you can’t even download it, its only goal is to show the General Conditions of Use.
Even though it is said that you can uninstall Round World by going to your Control Panel, this uninstallation is never complete, which is why we advice you to perform all steps in the guide shown below.
If you wish to avoid this kind of problem in the future, you need to start by avoiding mindless downloads from the Internet. Because we needed some pictures for this article, we downloaded a fake update for Flash player. You should know that in this case, only adobe.com can certify that your download is a true update. Anything found in streaming sites must be ignored, 99% of the time you’ll be downloading adwares just like Round World.
