Do you know what Checked List is?
Checked List has nothing to do with checking some kind of list, but you should definitely check out this article if you want to find out what it is. From the outset, we can say that you should remove this application, because it has been classified as adware. Adware is a type of infection that displays unreliable commercial advertisements having plenty of malicious traits. In a nutshell, adware could show fake ads possibly redirecting you to fake online shopping or a website that contains malicious software downloads that could be very difficult to remove.
Checked List is a product of SuperWeb LLC, a company which has been very active recently, releasing dozens of adware apps in recent months. Such productivity is not surprising, since all of its adware apps are merely old rebranded infections that feature a new name and new ads. But almost all of its programming code remains the same.

SuperWeb has not offered anything new in the packaging and marketing department either. Checked List has its own promotional website at Checkedlistapp.com, which features the same old information that has been copy-pasted on all of its promotional websites for years. As far as packaging is concerned, this infection is distributed via freeware bundles. These bundles are being distributed at freeware sharing websites such as Softpedia.com, Soft32.com, Softonic.com, and so on. The good news is you can remove Checked List from the installation process by opting for custom or advanced installation settings and unchecking the appropriate checkbox.
However, if you have been infected with Checked List, you should have noticed all those pop-ups and coupons appearing on your screen. We warn you that those ads are potentially dangerous, since they are supplied by various advertisers that can hardly be called legitimate. Indeed, based on our previous encounters with SuperWeb-developed adware, we can confidently state that your computer could get infected with malicious applications such as Trojans. Therefore, we recommend that you remove Checked List at immediately.
All in all, Checked List is truly a worthless application. It displays annoying advertisements that you could do without. However, the ads are more than just annoying. Our research shows that Checked List is merely a clone of previous adware developed by SuperWeb. Given the unreliable nature of Checked List, we advise you to remove it using our manual removal guide.
