Some adware is harmless, but others can serve as parasites, tracking your files, and Internet activities only to report it back to third parties, usually advertisers, to help them channel relevant ads to you.

PremiumSearch may monitor your surfing habits. Once installed, PremiumSearch or other types of parasites can do almost anything. It can tracks which websites you visited or what terms you’ve typed.
