Advanced System ProtectorAdvancedSystemProtector is the program that appears to be a protection and optimization tool for bettering your experience on the machine. Unfortunately, that is not the case about this program, even when the provider and developer released so many claims about the attractive and useful functions of their software. According to many analyses of the application and developer Systweak Software, and particular symptoms, it falls into the category of potentially unwanted applications because it is not capable of doing what the promotional material claims.

Advanced System Protector virus is the name that users[1] often use to describe this program because it appears out of nowhere and causes questionable scan results, warmings, other suspicious behavior related to promotions of software. Most of the complaints in online forums show that this unwanted application appeared after a freeware installation due to a third-party installer. This is one of the more common techniques used to spread PUPs and rogue tools, so all the changes can be made in the background and users fall for the claims about alleged system issues.

Unfortunately, this program can also make additional changes in the system folders and settings, so we recommend getting rid of the shady tool as soon as possible and cleaning the system with a program like Reimage Reimage Cleaner .

Advanced System Protector full version costs up to 65 dollars, even though developers always lure to trick people into buying the product with all the deals and sales promoted on the official and other related commercial sites. However, those deals that offer additional SysTweak products can give you a more hard time than this one PUA has caused you already.

So, if you want to increase the speed of your computer, you should think twice before purchasing Advanced System Protector. Besides, this program may show up on your computer out of nowhere because it has been actively promoted via various pop-up ads and notifications and it is related to other ad-supported sites and potentially unwanted programs.

Unfortunately, such a relation to other questionable online content means that Advanced System Protector can access and even track or collect details about your online browsing preferences. This is a common feature of such cyber infections that focus on redirecting online traffic because the main goal of PUP developers is to generate revenue.[2]

If an alert claims that you can check your computer and its speed just by clicking on it, you should never do that because you can easily end up with such a suspicious program like this one. To sum up, there is no guarantee that Advanced System Protector is capable of increasing a computer’s speed.

Techniques used to spread useless applications

However, it seems that you can also install this program on the system in a bundle with freeware and shareware. If you discovered this program on your computer, there is a great possibility that you installed it as a free addition of some other program. That’s why experts[3] always recommend paying more attention to the installation process of the software.

You can say that PUA is inside your computer after you start seeing its scan reports. Typically, they show up as soon as this program is installed on the system. No matter what they may look properly, they should never be trusted for 100%. In order to make sure that your computer is free of viruses, we recommend using more reputable anti-spyware programs.

However, for avoiding the installation in the first place, you should go for Advanced or Custom options every time you download anything from the internet. You need to go for trusted sources, to be sure that the machine is not getting affected by any of the intruders.

These rogue security tools like the PUP you got can interfere with particular startup settings, so the device may be more affected than you think.
