OverLook Crawler is an adware that is not worth being kept in your computer. It claims to provide some functions to enrich your web browsing experience. The adware is usually added to the computer system without the user's knowledge and approval after he/she installs a free program that is bundled with it. It is able to take over the web browser, so you always get pop-up notifications when you are going online. OverLook Crawler shows ad windows randomly no matter which web site you access. You can see all kinds of banners, video ads and picture ads that are tempting you to click on them by displaying attractive contents related to your interests. You should note that this adware wants you to click on the ads, because its developers are able to increase the incomes from pay-per-click. To achieve that goal, OverLook Crawler needs to install cookies in the computer to track your browsing activities and analyze your data to know more about your interests. When seeing something we like on the computer, we usually would like to click on them. So many computer users are redirected to completely unrelated web sites which are full of suspicious contents and entice them to install some useless third-party applications. Therefore, it is better to remove OverLook Crawler from the computer.
