VideoDimmer is similar to TV Wizard and Movie Mode as it’s designed by the same company. In fact, it’s the same unwanted program in a different name with the same concept: VideoDimmer is installed on your computer without your consent and displays advertising everywhere on your browser. Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Chrome are usually affected if they’re on your computer at the time of infection.
As usual, VideoDimmer comes in a bundle with other programs where the setup program hides as much as possible the presence of adware. If you go too fast, you will end up with a lot of trouble on your computer.
VideoDimmer designers present their software as a plugin that allows you to benefit from a “cinema effect” when you see videos on the internet. So, it darkens the rest of page so that the video is brought out while this is already doable on Youtube. In fact, it’s a good excuse to believe that you have a useful program to display tons of ads…
