Do you know what Water Plant is?
Water Plant is the newest addition to SuperWeb’s fleet of adware applications that pose a potential hazard to your system’s security. Our specialists recommend that you remove this program, because the advertisements it promotes are supplied by shady third parties who might use this advertising platform to infect your computer with malware. This article will try to answer questions such as where it comes from, what does it do, what are the dangers it poses, and how to remove this program.
Water Plant is an infection developed by SuperWeb LLC. The company is very well known in the industry, since it releases very similar adware applications at an estimated rate of at least 2 infections per week. As mentioned, Water Plant is the company’s newest infection, but the developer has recently released numerous other adware apps such as Metal Maker, Fruit Basket, Zoom zoom, Wild West, and so on. All of these applications are completely identical; therefore, you should remove them, provided that you have been infected with any of them.

The infection has its own dedicated website called Waterplantspace.com, which features information about this program. However, the developers try to mislead users by claiming that the program will enhance browsing experience by providing comparisons of online deals and prices. But, the application does no such thing, since it is not integrated with any other advertising platforms.
The website features a download button that does not work, which is typical of all SuperWeb infections. But, it doesn’t mean that you can’t get infected with it. In fact, you are apt to get infected with Water Plant if you download freeware bundles, which often include a legitimate program and an infection such as Water Plant.
You should remove Water Plant due to the fact that it displays potentially dangerous advertisements that come in the form of pop-ups, coupons, and so on, which are often provided by shady businesses. It means that the ads are misleading and that you might not get what you’ve paid for. Furthermore, you could get infected with malware via fake ads, which might severely jeopardize your system’s security.
Clearly, there is no reason for this application to remain on your computer. If you don’t remove the program, you risk getting your computer infected with malware, which could wreak havoc on it. Therefore, we recommend that you remove this infection using the manual removal guide below.
