About loffinam?

Loffinam is an ad-supported browser extension that operates within the user's web browser and as a background process. This program is often bundled with third-party download managers, which may include potentially unwanted software offers to generate revenue from installations. Once active, Loffinam delivers advertisements to the browser in various formats, including banners, text hyperlinks, inline text ads, and transitional ads. It's important to note that these ads are not endorsed by the websites on which they appear. Many ads are injected in the header or footer of a webpage, or they may replace existing legitimate ads. Some of the advertisements may promote products that pose a risk to the user's computer. These promotions often include additional software downloads, price comparison, and search ads. Additionally, Loffinam communicates with a remote server to track the user's browsing habits, URLs, and domains visited to update its advertisements. The software's End User License Agreement (EULA) states that the advertisements may be targeted based on the user's browsing history and information processed by the software. In some instances, the program's uninstaller may not function properly or may not completely remove all traces of the program, resulting in continued ad displays even after the program's removal.
