Remove Lucky Bright

Lucky Bright is classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). If you happen to have it installed on your system, there’s no doubt that you failed at being aware when installing something new in your computer.

Actually Lucky Bright is installed in most cases along with some free software found in freeware download platforms such as soft32.com, download.com, softonic.com, etc… These websites often offer a download tool that includes (according to them) 100% virus free optional tools, adding it then to the software you were looking for. This is such an issue these days that installing a freeware has become synonym of adware infection. You can stop this by being aware and careful when installing and reading everything marked on each install step, so you can reject any optional tools.

Lucky Bright‘s mission is quite simple… to show as many ads as possible when you’re browsing the internet. Lucky Bright won’t go beating around the bush to achieve this goal, it modifies the source code of every website you visit to insert its ads directly onto the site, specially if you’re visiting e-commerce websites like Amazon. It’s pretty easy to identify ads coming from Lucky Bright, as they are labeled as Lucky Bright Ads  or Ads by Lucky Bright. 

If you go through the pages of Lucky Bright’s official website you can be sure that you won’t get infected there, suspiciously enough, it’s not possible to download it there.

As we write this lines on November 5th, 2015 we’re the first ones to report this program and offer a free and efficient guide to remove it. However, in the next few hours or a couple of days at the most, many fake security blogs will sort out their own removal processes, the difference is they will ask you for money in exchange of a tool that might not even work.
