What is iFishPlayer?

iFishPlayer is a potentially unwanted program that comes to your computer in the form of an extension to the browser and hijacks your browser Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. This program specializes in distributing and displaying advertising materials (banners, coupons, pop-ups). During browsing iFishPlayer constantly displays advertisements, thus promoting the products of partner companies. At first glance, iFishPlayer seems a useful program that can help the user to find the best offers on the internet. In fact, it is not. Most of the products that you offer are void.

This program is designed to get you to spend money on anything. iFishPlayer also may collect your personal information (such as browsing history) and transfer it to third parties. If you find a iFishPlayer on your PC, then you should remove it immediately.
