Savenow removal - Introduction to savenow

SaveNow is an adware which runs in the background. It opens adverts when it sees targeted URLs and terms entered into forms. it tracks where a person goes online and then pops up separate browser windows with targeted advertisements or special offers

What is SaveNow and what exactly does it do?

SaveNow keeps a list of URLs and terms it is interested in on disk, in the file 'SaveNow\savenow.db' in Program Files. This file is obfuscated but it is trivial to decode. The (large - often over a megabyte) file maps from these targets to adverts to serve, which are downloaded through Akamai's proxies. As well as downloading the pop-up ads, SaveNow connects to WhenU's servers to log the ad impression. It passes the name of the affiliate software which installed the software, the ID of the advert being shown, and the site URL or term that caused the pop-up to be triggered. No cookie is set on these accesses, so at the moment users are not being tracked across sites visited. SaveNow exists in several variations like : SaveNow/Download comes bundled with a "WhenUDownload" ActiveX control. SaveNow/B comes without the WhenUDownload component. SaveNow/Save is a new version, rebranded as 'Save!', which works in the same manner. SaveNow/Db is the same as the Save variant, but includes an ActiveX 'marker' control to prevent it being installed twice. SaveNow/WUInst is an installer for the Save variant. The WUInst variant can be used by any web site to download and install SaveNow or other code form WhenU. It can also cause frequent crashes.
