PlayThunder Offers

Posted: June 22, 2018

The PlayThunder Offers is a browser extension connected to the website Playthunder.com, a page that is meant to provide its visitors with access to a broad range of browser-based games. However, the purpose of the extension seems rather peculiar, and malware researchers have tagged it as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP). This software type is not harmful, but its installation might often bring undesired changes to the Web browser's configuration and behavior, therefore worsening the user's Web browsing experience.

In the case of the PlayThunder Offers, the add-on demands to get permission to 'Read and change all your data on the website you visit,' something that would allow it to insert advertisements or replace the existing ones with its own marketing content.

Since the PlayThunder Offers does not seem to offer any helpful features, we suggest that you avoid installing it. If you have already added the PlayThunder Offers extension to your browser, then we suggest that you ensure its removal by using the integrated add-on manager or an external PC security scanner.
