What is ProntoApp?

ProntoApp is advertised as a program that will improve the way you search the Internet. Though this may sound like a useful service, the ProntoApp app can be intrusive and will display advertisements whether you want them to or not.

The ProntoApp advertisements may have a different text under the pop-up: “Powered by ProntoApp“, “Advertisements by ProntoApp“, “Brought to you by ProntoApp“, “Ads by ProntoApp” or “Ads powered by ProntoApp“.

These ads are aimed to promote the installation of additional questionable content including web browser toolbars, optimization utilities, and other products, all so the ProntoApp publisher can generate pay-per-click revenue.

When your device is infected with the ProntoApp adware, other common symptoms include:

  • Advertisements appear in places they shouldn’t be.
  • Your web browser’s homepage has mysteriously changed without your permission.
  • Web pages that you typically visit are not displaying properly.
  • Website links redirect to sites different from what you expected.
  • Browser popups appear which recommend fake updates or other software.
  • Other unwanted programs might get installed without your knowledge.
