About HQTotalS?
HQTotalS is a web browser application that displays banner ads and contextual link ads injected into web pages. The ads are generated by the web browser plugin for IE, FF, and Chrome, and may appear on any website regardless of affiliation with the publisher. Users may encounter up to 10 intext ads, 4 banner ads, and/or a transitional ad on web pages. This application is commonly bundled with 3rd-party download managers that use misleading advertising techniques to install the software. In addition to displaying ads, HQTotalS may modify browser settings, such as lowering security levels and changing the home page and search provider, resulting in web browser hijacking. Furthermore, the extension reports user behavior and analytics back to a controlling server, which may include visited URLs and domains, as well as ad interaction data. This adware is frequently bundled with multiple potentially unwanted programs within 3rd party download manager packages.
Multiple virus scanners have detected malware in HQTotalS.
