Our research says that ViperOut is an old adware application. With this we know exactly what to expect from it, although we would know what ViperOut does anyway, because it comes from the SuperWeb group of adware programs. All programs from this family are practically identical, so whatever you experienced with Rad Rater, SourceApp or Fact Fire will come back swinging at you with ViperOut as well.
One of the most peculiar features of the SuperWeb family apps is that they all have official homepages. You can access ViperOut’s official homepage at viperout.net. Normally, it should be possible download the application in question from its homepage, but when it comes to the SuperWeb apps, their homepages are completely dysfunctional empty shells used to convince users that ViperOut is a legitimate application that can improve your web search experience.
Needless to say, that is nothing of the sort. On top of that, ViperOut does not even need an official download link to enter your computer. Users often install such applications when they download freeware from various file sharing sites. If the software you are about to install is distributed for free, you need to read all the installation steps carefully because these days software is distributed in packs.
Before you know it, ViperOut can be added to your web browser, and the extension will start collecting data on your web browsing habits. It will know what you search for online, and this way ViperOut will be able to display commercial ads that are related to your most recent searches. At first glance, it might seem like a good idea: You no longer need to look for something yourself when the application does it for you. However, the problem is that Ads by ViperOut cannot be trusted.
They can be used by malevolent third parties to display corrupted content, so clicking ViperOut ads can lead to malware infection. You definitely need to avoid that, so you have to remove ViperOut at once. Open Control panel and uninstall this application along with other unnecessary programs.
