About SmartCOmpare?

This adware is a JustPlug.It web browser extension that is distributed through the WebPick (InstalleRex) download and install manager. It is commonly bundled with various adware offers and functions as a cross-browser extension, comprising a Windows service, an auto-starting component, and the browser toolbar/plugin. Its primary purpose is to introduce advertisements in the form of banner ads, hyper-text links, and pop-ups into the browser. Moreover, certain versions may interfere with existing advertising on websites and insert affiliate codes in links as coupon offers. The advertisements may include misleading malvertising ads promoting 'required' updates for common programs, along with unwanted pop-up advertisements. Upon installation, these programs may install several bundled adware utilities and additional browser extensions.
