How did OverallTermsReserve install on my computer?

Adware is commonly installed through software bundles, especially when users install free or untrusted programs without reviewing the setup options. Skipping steps like "Advanced", "Custom", or "Manual" and accepting default settings can result in adware being installed along with other software.

Avoid clicking on ads, pop-ups, or links found on questionable websites, and block those sites from sending notifications. Make sure your operating system and software are always up to date.

It is also important to routinely scan your device with reliable security software to detect and remove potential threats. If your computer is already infected with OverallTermsReserve, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate this adware.
