Do you know what Video Dimmer is?
Video Dimmer is a suspicious application based on the same template as Health Alert, Celebrity Alert, and Finance Alert. The program will allow you to dim the lights around different kinds of online videos; however, it is not a reliable application, so you should carefully think whether you want to keep it on the system. If you decide to let it stay, you should know that Video Dimmer will bombard you with commercial advertisements. As the program is compatible with Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox, you will see ads on all of the aforementioned browsers. Ads generated by this adware program are very annoying and there is a possibility that they will take you to unreliable websites. Thus, we recommend that you stop them from appearing. You will be able to do that if you delete Video Dimmer from the system.
As it has been already mentioned, Video Dimmer might take you to unreliable websites. Unfortunately, nobody knows what you will find on them, so it would be clever to try not to end up on unknown websites. In order to reduce the possibility to encounter malware, you should ignore advertisements that Video Dimmer displays. What is more, it has been found out that this adware will not only distribute commercials, but also record non-personally identifiable data, for instance, search queries, and the details about the websites you visit. If you do not like this, you can delete the program anytime.
