Jogotempo Virus

This article aims to help users remove (uninstall) Jogotempo Virus from Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari, as well as their respective system.

Jogotempo Virus Uninstall

Jogotempo Virus is a type of potentially unwanted program, referred as PUP for short. PUPs like Jogotempo Virus share a lot of similarities to an Adware in that they both generate unwanted Ads. These Ads may get between mildly annoying to downright nasty depending on their aggressiveness and the ability of your computer to handle the extra load. Remember that every time you try to load a page, click on a link or start your browser your computer has to download all the relevant data AND also download everything it needs to display the Ads on the page. This puts a strain on both your internet speed and CPU power. Older computers are very susceptible to this kind of extra load – if you have one you might suffer system instability, crashes and programs hanging. 

You may also notice that  Jogotempo Virus may try to sell to your different things via it’s Ads and some may look familiar. PUPs like Jogotempo Virus are able to tap into your browser’s recent history and search queries and compile a profile of you in an effort to display the most relevant Ads. This is similar to what Google and other sites do in a way, but it is much more dangerous in that it violates your online privacy. It’s not a good idea to keep Jogotempo Virus for long – these programs are known to send that data back to whoever created them at regular intervals!

Jogotempo Virus – not annoying, but also dangerous

The inconvenience caused by the slow loading pages is a relatively minor one compared to some of the nasty viruses  Jogotempo Virus can try to install on your computer. We strongly urge you to completely avoid anything that Jogotempo Virus might try to interest you with. The chance of landing on an useful and legitimate site when clicking on an Ad is a miniscule one as legitimate sites rarely pay for advertising to such shady platforms like Jogotempo Virus. It is much more likely that you will be taken to some third-world scam site that copies a popular site like Amazon or NewEgg. The layout may be exactly the same and the URL too – with only a symbol or two of difference. Don’t be fooled – this is actually a phishing attempt to steal your account name and password in case you try to log in into the fake site believing it’s the original.

Any programs that Jogotempo Virus may offer you for installation will contain an even nastier surprise. Many of the most dangerous viruses in existence like ransomware or rootkits/keyloggers use applications exactly like Jogotempo Virus to infect computers around the web. Any program that Jogotempo Virus may offer you to install on your computer will likely either be infected with a virus or instead be useless bloatware. Bloatware are programs that claim to perform a certain function, but reality do nothing but spam you with warning messages about non-existing problems and prompt you to buy the full version. Once you pay you’ll still have an useless program that does nothing, but at least you’ll be rid of the messages. Not a very cost effective purchase by any means.

To summarize – viruses are carried in executable files and one should always keep this in mind when running/installing such files. Try to obtain programs only through trusted and legitimate channels. Failing that try to keep an anti-virus program at hand and scan such files before opening them. Try to minimize downloads from unsafe sources like torrents, blogs, forums and storage sites and especially don’t trust anything that suddenly shows up as an advertisement on your screen.
