About Norpalla?

This software is an adware program, which is a customized version of the Yontoo adware browser add-on. It embeds itself into the user's web browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox) and displays contextual advertising on web pages not tied to Yontoo or its affiliates. The advertising appears in the form of banners, video ads, search-related ads, transitional and in-text ads, and links. Additionally, the software self-updates at regular intervals and communicates with a server for instructions, additional ad feeds, and reporting on user interaction, including the domains and web pages visited by the user.
