MyDealBox is the name of an application that is supposed to help users save money when shopping online. This program is promoted as a useful tool that will assist avid online shoppers by providing them with coupons and shopping deals, however, this is very far from the truth. MyDealBox is simply another adware application that will put your virtual security in danger because it will expose you to a variety of threats. Shortly after it is installed, MyDealBox will start generating countless third-party ads that will appear on the websites you browse. These ads may try to tempt you by presenting you with exclusive deals and offers for items that might provoke your interest. You should not trust these ads because they can only do you harm instead of benefit you in any way. We strongly recommend that you stay away from any ads displayed by MyDealBox and that you remove the application from your computer as soon as possible.

How did I get infected with?

MyDealBox is the kind of program that you could not possibly acquire because it is not available for download. The application does not have an official representative website, so it can only use deceptive distribution methods to enter targeted computers. Such methods include software bundling and using random pop-up ads that appear on different websites. Both methods require interaction by the user, which means that the infiltration of MyDealBox and other similar applications could easily be prevented. If you are careful with the content you browse and acquire, you should have no problems with adware or other infections. The same applies for clicking random ads you see on the Internet. Avoid visiting unknown and suspiciously looking file sharing websites because the applications you will find on them will surely contain installers of adware programs. Rely on official software sources only and be attentive during setup in order to decline unwanted programs and keep your PC clean for longer.

Why are these ads dangerous?

The reason why anyone would create an application like MyDealBox is to earn money. Adware developers get paid to promote third-party content, and then they get paid again for every ad that is clicked by users. This is the reason why the ads appear so persistently. Unfortunately, making the creators of MyDealBox is not the only thing that will happen if you interact with ads displayed by the application. When you click an ad by MyDealBox, you will be routed to a website belonging to one of the third-party sponsors of the program. If that happens, you should pray that the website is not malicious as the consequences could be damaging. The sponsors of MyDealBox are not supervised in any way by the developers of the application, which means that they might as well be cyber criminals. You do not want to land on a website created by cyber criminals as nothing good will come out of that. Make sure you prevent it from happening by avoiding ads by MyDealBox, and to make things even more secure you should delete the application once and for all.
