Let’s take a look at some snippets of the code to see what they are up to. It has the permission “Read and change all your data on the websites you visit”, which is not unusual for a browser extension, but it’s all what adware needs to do its job. When I looked up Veritasi, we noticed it was added to the “Web Store” the same day we found it and it’s supposedly meant to improve your sound quality online.Ī similar extension was found and described by who classified it as adware. Clicking the said button initiates the installation of the app. The app is called Veritasi and a big arrow pointing to the "Add extension" button is displayed on the site. At this point, your tab will go into “Full Screen” mode, and you can see which extension they want you to install. Thinking that this is the ticket out of the page, you will tick that box and click "OK". This site runs a JavaScript producing this dialog box, telling you you’ll have to “Add Extension to Leave”.Ĭlicking “Cancel” once changes it to add a tick box marked “Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs.” Let’s look at one example located at webrspace. Most often, you can likely land on one of these sites after a redirect from a crack, keygen, or adult entertainment site. We have found a number of websites whose sole purpose is to try and force an extension on anyone visiting that site with Chrome.
