It is of no surprise that adware creators make use of the current online shopping fad. Users want to spend as less money as possible, and this is where the likes of PriceKeaper come in. At first glance, it looks like a useful browser add-on that can provide you with relevant shopping suggestions. However, such adware applications often promote unreliable third-party content and if you click on PriceKeaper ads, you will land on an unreliable website. You have to remove PriceKeaper from your computer if you want to avoid any serious computer security issues.

PriceKeaper is another version of DownSave, ShopNCompare ads, AllCheapPrice and other “random name” adware applications. It means that this program can generate its name at random upon the installation. You might see PRIceekeeeaper, PriCEKeaPER and other different variants, but the point remains that it is still the same application.

Needles to say, that you cannot download PriceKeaper at PriceKeaper.info. The homepage is just an empty shell that does not even provide useful information on this program. We know that PriceKeaper is supposed to help you shop around the Internet already, but other than that PriceKeaper.info does not display any useful information whatsoever.

Since there is no direct download link available, we can say that PriceKeaper employs bundled downloads for distribution. According to our security researchers, this program comes only in bundles. Users initiate the PriceKeaper download when they click third-party ads that offer to install Adobe Flash or Java plug-in updates. Keep in mind that you should download legitimate software updates ONLY from respective websites. Downloading files and updates via third-party web pages only leads to adware installation!

This is how PriceKeaper managed to enter your PC. The chances are that it is not the only potentially unwanted application currently installed on your system. It is true that PriceKeaper is more annoying than malicious (in fact, on its own this program cannot do any harm to your system at all), but it does not mean that you should tolerate it.

Malevolent third parties can easily exploit this application with intention to promote corrupted websites or other adware. You should never click PriceKeaper ads, because they could be embedded with suspicious outgoing links.

The best way to protect your computer from harm is to remove PriceKeaper right now. Access Control Panel and terminate the application. If you do not know whether you have other unwanted programs on your computer or not, scan the system with SpyHunter free scanner. Should any potentially dangerous applications be detected, uninstall them immediately and invest in a licensed computer security tool that would help you safeguard your system against similar issues in the future.
