How to remove JollyWallet (Virus Removal Guide)

JollyWallet (also found as JollyWallet virus, Jolly Wallet) is an advertisement serving platform and community toolbar categorized as adware and a potentially unwanted program (PUP). JollyWallet adware is known to get onto a computer system and attach to affected internet browsers without user consent or knowledge. Once JollyWallet has been contracted it will inject the webpages you visit with several types of advertisements including generic banners and skyscrapers, in-text ads, in-image ads, and pop-under advertisements.

JollyWallat advertisements may pop-up in a variety of different ways, often prompting pop-up ads on the right side of the open internet browser. JollyWallet also displays a large toolbar at the top of the Internet browser with buttons that initiate sharing and coupons. The advertisements, links, and buttons promoted and produced by JollyWallet malware, have not been reported to infect a computer with additional malware, but may show unrelated sponsored deals and results in order to generate affiliate revenue, or a CPC revenue stream.

JollyWallet is known to attach to internet browsers without consent, and most notably bundles with third-party software and browser attachments, includings add-ons, extensions, toolbars, freeware, shareware, codecs, and torrents.

JollyWallet can also be manually downloaded from a variety of sources including jollywallet.com and the Goolge Chrome extension repository, but this does not mean that JollyWallet is safe to use. JollyWallet is guilty of practicing unethical marketing practices, and has been reported to entrap unsuspecting victims to in-direct terms that allow JollyWallet to access all browser activity in order to display potentially unwanted advertisements. JollyWallet also allows third-party attachments and software to locate to the particular computer system without direct permission. This may include third-party adware and spyware platforms.

It is recommended to avoid manually installing JollyWallet adware and similar advertisement serving platforms. Though JollyWallet may appear harmless, JollyWallet is extremely privacy invading, and desperate to turn revenue. It has even been reported that JollyWallet continuously spam emails their users who create a membership with JollyWallet (pictured above). If JollyWallet is active on your system, if JollyWallet insatlled without consent, or if you suspect additional malware has infected your computer system, please use the free options and steps below to remove JollyWallet and third-party malware.
