The functionality of Rapid Reader is rather straightforward. Once this adware program enters your web browse, it will be filled with suspicious third-party web content, which, it goes without saying, will cause you quite a bit of annoyance. Generally, all such content is presented to a user as various third-party banner ads, annoying coupons, and invasive pop-ups.

One of the most annoying things about Rapid Reader is that all the ads and pop-ups are presented in an utterly random way. Another annoying feature is that at times your web browser could get filled up with those annoying ads and pop-ups so much that you might not be able to surf the web the way you are used to.
