adblock 360 claims to be an ad blocker, it has been flagged as a fake site that functions as adware. Despite its promise to block pop-up ads and other unwanted ads while browsing the internet and watching videos, including movies on YouTube, it fails to do so effectively. 

AdBlock 360 is actually a rogue browser extension and has been classified as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA). Instead of blocking ads, it facilitates a large number of intrusive and unreliable ads if installed. These ads are often scams and survive by misleading internet users. By running their own business, they help doubtful ads to invade your computer, leading to a negative user experience.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

To avoid downloading harmful software, it is always recommended to research and download from official or verified sources. Unofficial and free file-hosting sites, as well as peer-to-peer sharing networks, are often untrustworthy and offer bundled harmful content.

When downloading or installing software, it is advised to carefully read the terms, explore all options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out of any supplements. Intrusive ads may appear genuine, but they often redirect users to questionable websites such as gambling, adult-dating, or pornography.

If encountering such ads or redirects, it is important to check your system for suspect applications and browser extensions or plug-ins and remove them immediately. If your computer has already been infected with AdBlock 360, we suggest using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate the adware.
