About TheAdBlock?
TheAdBlock is a web browser plugin that integrates ad blocking and other advertising-supported features. It may be bundled with third-party download managers and potentially unwanted software in order to monetize installs, or may utilize malvertising practices. Once installed, TheAdBlock is capable of delivering various types of advertisements, including banners, text hyperlinks, inline text ads, and transitionals, to the browser. These ads are not endorsed by the websites on which they appear and are inserted by TheAdBlock. Additionally, the plugin may replace legitimate ads with its own and may contain links to further information about the ad. The software also communicates with a remote server to report user browsing habits and visited URLs and domains in order to update its advertisements.
