Note that many websites have their own advertising, unrelated to adware.
Adware is any software application in which advertising is displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which can be viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen and sometimes through text links or in integrated search results. Adware may or may not track personal information. It may also gather information anonymously or in aggregate only. Users should check the EULA and Privacy policy to ensure if the adware on their machines conforms to their standards.

Comment:
This program uses your internet connection to download ads and send out usage statistics. Removing this may cause dependant programs (such as P2P applications) to stop working. This program is only seen bundled with other programs. It is not an independent application.
