Summary

O RedSpeedup is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that hides its true nature behind the guise of a PC optimization tool.

Other PUPs include adware and browser hijackers, who monetize their presence through various intrusive actions. Users may be subjected to countless dubious advertisements, have their Web browser modified to open unfamiliar new addresses, or even have their browsing activities tracked, packaged, and then uploaded to a remote server.
