Do you know what PriceFountain is?
If you click the download button on pricefountain.com, you will not acquire the installer of PriceFountain. Instead, you will download a PNG file representing the interface of the web page itself. If you click the download button displayed in the ‘About’ section, you will be redirected to a page indicating that the ‘File does not exist’. Of course, this does not mean that the program is inactive, because if it was not, you would not research its removal. Do you know how to delete PriceFountain? We can explain this to you; however, you firstly need to learn how the program works.
As soon as PriceFountain is installed onto the computer, it collects information about your web browsing habits. The application runs web cookies which are set to discover information regarding your browsing history, your IP address, and other information. You can remove these cookies from the browsers. Even if PriceFountain does not collect private, personally identifiable information, we still think that you should delete it, primarily because of the disturbing adverts potentially flooding your screen. While some computer users identify PriceFountain just because of the running processes (e.g., pricefountain.exe*32), others are likely to detect it due to the flooding ads. Even though some of the offers linked to the program may be harmless, others could be corrupted and even misleading. Do not click on any pop-up or banner ads to stay on the safe side, and rush to remove adware.
