Price-Horse adware is more likely to be a trojan horse, which sometimes gets secretly installed into PCs. Its installer may be hidden deeply into the installer of some other free program you might decide to install. Indeed, you might find some nice cost-free application and want to install it. But the reality is that this application may be closely integrated with Price-Horse.
No doubt, you should read all the information provided by the installer of any free program you might decide to bring into your PC. This is why there is such a document as the End User’s License Agreement. It generally gives you all the necessary information regarding third-party software offered in case you select the default installation option. On the other hand, if you choose the custom or advanced installation method, you may easily avoid installing such extras, which you obviously do not need.
Users who fail to pay due attention when installing freeware often end up installing all sorts of totally useless programs, and this Price-Horse adware is just one of many other absolutely not necessary applications. Note that most often it attacks browsers like Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. You will see a special add-on (extension) in them. Also, you will see Price-Horse as a standalone software in your computer if you access the Control Panel of your PC.
Price-Horse will start showing its many ads, deals, offers and other forms of annoying and intrusive online advertisement. This will most often occur when you go to commercial sites. When shopping online, you might even see some of these ads powered by Price-Horse to be relevant to your search queries and to the items you’re looking for to buy online.

If you actually click on such Price-Horse ads, this is when the guys who stand behind the distribution of this adware get paid. On the other hand, you will simply not be able to save any funds through this application.
