Adware.WizardUpdate is Malwarebytes' detection name for a family of adware that targets macOS systems.
Users of machines infected with Adware.WizardUpdate may notice their system is slow and see advertisements not originating from the websites they are visiting.
Adware.WizardUpdate is a typical example of adware. It has no other goal than to get advertisements shown on the affected system. Adware.WizardUpdate is usually installed by users themselves, because it was offered as a fake Flash Player installer that installs a DLV Player instead of Flash.
