Remove Ads by SpeedChecker

If when surfing the Internet you’re seeing advertising banners with the words “Ads by SpeechChecker” in the lower left-hand corner appearing on your usual websites, it’s because your computer is infected by an adware program. This program has only one goal: distribute a maximum amount of advertisements so that you see them or click on them. Because you do this, this adware’s author will earn money by “taking your computer hostage” in a way.

The Ads by SpeedChecker are not the only ones to have been introduced onto your machine. You might also be treated to a fake utility called SpeedCheck App or SpeedChecker or CheckmeUp, which is supposed to analyze your Internet connection speed- a nice pretext for installing adware and displaying ads.
