But it’s not just adverts that you have to worry about as having adware installed on your computer can also slow your internet connection down considerably and in addition to that make your PC run much slower than normal – another real pain in the behind. This is because the secure.trusted-serving.com has been programmed to constantly ‘dial home’ so that it can send back reports about your browsing habits and which websites you visit. Yes, that’s right – those pesky little pop-up adverts are not just annoying – they’re spying on you too! They monitor your computer usage and then send the data back to ad servers via your own internet connection. This is so that the marketing companies who use adware can then tailor subsequent adverts to your apparent tastes and habits in order to make you click through to their site. This continuous to-ing and fro-ing of data is exactly why your PC will be performing its regular tasks at a fraction of the speed that it normally does.
Furthermore, once infected with this adware, you may notice that back/forward buttons are not working properly. When ever you will click back it will flash and say "http://secure.trusted-serving.com/serve" two or more times. It may even froze your web browser window.
Now let’s take a look at how secure.trusted-serving.com infiltrated your PC in the first place. It is normally bundled with popular freeware applications – this is how the authors of these applications get paid for their work. A marketing company will pay the author of the software to include the adware on these applications so they can target users more specifically.
Put simply, if you download programs or software from the internet you are at risk of also, unwittingly, downloading adware and installing it on your machine. Adware that displays secure.trusted-serving.com/serve pop-ups may be hidden in a music file sharing program, those free games that you see on certain websites or you may have just been misfortunate enough to have visited a website that triggers adware without you knowing it.
It stands to reason that you want to avoid the scourge of adware but how can you protect both your sanity and your PC from it? Firstly you should get into the habit of scanning your computer on a regular basis for threats that are not counted as viruses: such as adware and any of the other types of malware that are lurking out there - spyware for example or Trojan horses.
Secondly, don’t download free shareware unless you’re absolutely sure that you want it – and that you know that you may have to be prepared to then go to the trouble of removing secure.trusted-serving.com from your PC. To remove adware and PUPs that are causing these annoying redirects, please follow the removal instructions below.
