About hdvideo?

The HDVideo software is a web browser ad injection extension designed to deliver various forms of advertisements to the user's browser, including static banners, videos, and context-hyper links. Often bundled with third-party download managers and additional offers, HDVideo may lead to the installation of potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). This adware injects ads onto web pages indiscriminately, extending beyond those associated with the software or its affiliates. Furthermore, the program regularly communicates with remote servers to retrieve new ad feeds and reports the user's visited domains and URLs, as well as the links and advertisements clicked while browsing the web.

Multiple virus scanners have detected malware in hdvideo.
