About PastaLeads?
PastaLeads is a browser extension that provides advertising support, also known as adware. Its purpose is to deliver ads to the user's Internet browser in the form of banners, context text-links, and transitional ads. The ads displayed are not affiliated with the underlying website on which they appear. This program injects ads into web pages or displays advertisements, banners, or coupons that would not otherwise be present. Injected ad placements may contain links to additional information about the ad ("About this Ad"). In addition to delivering ads, this adware component tracks the user's browsing habits, including the URLs and domain names visited, in order to update and check for new offers and placements. It also monitors and records the advertisements that appear on web pages and the ads the user clicks on.
