Remove Web United

Web United is a name linked to a potentially unwanted program forced upon users downloading and installing software whose install process has been modified. We classify Web United as “potentially unwanted” because we can always prevent its installation, all it takes is for us to be aware of our own actions when we’re installing something we found online.

The only goal of Web United is to show as many ads as possible in every website we visit while it takes the time to collect data about what we do with our computer. These ads can be seen as pop-ups, banners, fake ads on Google, or links on blue/green directly in the content of every visited website.

To avoid this kind of obnoxious problem in the future, take great care about what you choose to install on your computer, always check what any pre-selected cases really mean for you before mindlessly clicking on “Next” whenever you’re installing something new. Make sure to customize every install process you execute to stop anything you don’t actually want to be installed.
