Summary: Yazzle Sudoku is a software application that displays ads and downloads files without the computer user’s consent or knowledge. The continual ads can be annoying and can be generated even if you have a pop up blocker on your computer.

Details: The ads use up network bandwidth and processing power. This slows down your computer’s processing and makes it more time consuming to use. With most adware programs, the computer user will notice a difference in the time it takes for programs and web pages to load up.

How does one get Yazzle Sudoku on their computer in the first place? Sudoku is a game using numbers in which the player must match up the numbers. The game is promoted by Yazzle. Installing the game will also install adware components onto the computer. As part of the installation process for the game, the user must also install SurfSidekick, which is an adware program promoted by ClickSpring LLC. Adware programs display advertisements on the computer as long as the program is running.

The adware components will generate pop up ads. The adware installed by Yazzle Sudoku may or may not track personal information. The privacy and security statement put out by Yazzle is a bit vague on this point. If this adware does track your personal browsing habits and computer usage, then it will send targeted advertisements geared to your personal interests. This is done in an attempt to make it more likely that you will click on the advertisements for additional information.

If you have not downloaded Yazzle Sudoku, but have the game on your computer, it may have been installed as part of a package. Sometimes, adware is bundled together with other software and comes as a package deal, so to speak. Otherwise, this is suggestive of a security breach on your computer and you may need to do a thorough search for spyware, adware, and malware. You will also need to remove any spyware, adware, and malware programs that you find on your computer.
