The reason we are saying that is the fact that Yawtix ALWAYS travels bundled with freeware. It is impossible to download the application at Yawtix.com. All adware programs from SuperWeb family do not have direct download links. ResultsBay, Laflurla, loffinam and other similar apps exhibit the same features as well – all of them are bundled with freeware, all of them promise to improve your browsing experience, and all of them lie. Rather than improving your web browsing, they disrupt it. Yawtix and other apps from the same group display a lot of annoying advertisements and commercial pop-ups.

It makes an impression that Yawtix can provide you with relevant information and good online deals. However, this application does not review the third-party content that gets embedded into the pop-up ads. So you can never know whether you click on a safe pop-up or not. For all its worth, you could end up being redirected to dangerous websites that are involved in online marketing schemes and, perhaps, even malware distribution.
