Remove adfoc.us

Adfoc.us is basically a URL compressor, which means that if you have a link with a long address, adfoc.us can shorten it. This type of service has been popularized with the arrival of Twitter a few years ago. However, adfoc.us is not always used wisely and the company that manages its use does not clean house with its users. Thus a good number of adware and spyware uses adfoc.us to redirect internet users to all sorts of bad areas online. One can see more and more of these links because adfoc.us reimburses the creator of the link each time you click it, adfoc.us then places ads before reaching the content behind the link. It’s not unusual then, to see a number of undesirable programs using this service.
