Investigation Brief
The page is a localized Softonic listing for the game Jump Force. It offers download buttons that route through Softonic's own installer and affiliate links. Multiple security vendors have previously flagged Softonic's download manager as a PUP that can bundle adware or change browser settings.
Historical detections and vendor reputation
Malwarebytes labeled the Softonic Downloader as PUP.Optional.Softonic, describing it as an adware-supported bundler for Windows.
Microsoft Security Intelligence lists the same software as PUA:Win32/Softonic, noting it can affect computing experience quality.
An Intego report documented an instance where Softonic delivered adware that installed even after the user declined the offer.
How the download path works
The page displays multiple language versions of a prominent "Download Jump Force" button that initiates Softonic's own download manager.
The manager has historically bundled additional software or altered browser settings, which is why security products have flagged it as PUP.
Why the score is 62
Multiple vendors have classified Softonic's downloader as PUP or PUA. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.
