Even though this thing is supposed to generate coupons and discounts thus saving you time and money, the reality is a bit more different and a lot more dangerous. Being a typical representative of the adware family, Purse Perks slithers its way into your PC (usually behind your back) and creates a complete mess on the machine. Not only does Purse Perks use stealth and lies in order to get installed but it also serves as a backdoor to malware, displays unreliable advertisements all over the PC screen, constantly messes with your browser settings and slows down the computer itself till the device is practically unusable. There isn’t one beneficial trait Purse Perks exhibits so the only reasonable thing to do once you’ve encountered this parasite’s unwanted presence on your machine is to immediately get rid of it it. In the war against cyber infections you have to always be as informed as possible so in order to learn more about this thing’s malicious ways, keep on reading.

How did I get infected with?

Unfortunately, it’s almost impossible to tell exactly how this sneaky infection got installed on your computer. Keeping in mind that the most popular infiltration method is freeware bundling, though, chances are, you fell victim to this stealthy technique. Have you recently downloaded some programs for free from some questionable and unverified website? If so, it’s rather safe to assume you didn’t pay much attention to the installation process as most PC users prefer to rush the installation thus putting at risk their machine, their cyber security and their privacy. Doesn’t really sound like a good idea, does it? To avoid virus infiltration, select the custom/advanced option in the Setup Wizard instead of the basic one so you could keep an eye on the software you download. This may seem like a bothersome, time-consuming thing to go but trust us when we say that removing a virus which already managed to get installed will certainly require much more time, energy and patience. Don’t jeopardize your own safety and don’t underestimate the threat that bundled freeware and shareware bring along. Going through the Terms and Conditions is another habit you should have when installing software because it’s very irritating to realize you accepted some nasty term or condition without ever reading it. Purse Perks is not even considered among the most harmful infections out there; some much more dangerous parasites use the same secretive distribution method as well.

Being perfectly compatible with all three of the most commonly used browsers out there, the virus makes sure its constant manipulations will not remain unnoticed. Thanks to the browser add-on, your PC screen will be absolutely flooded with pop-ups, pop-unders, interstitials, banners, hyperlinks, video ads and all other kinds of commercials imaginable.

Apart from being ridiculously intrusive and annoying, you should also know that they are very dangerous as well.

As you see, the odds are not in your favor and the numerous risks you will be taking by just using your machine are simply not worth it. This malicious tool is also known to be monitoring your browser-related activities so it poses a threat to your privacy as well. Aren’t you feeling anxious knowing that your browsing history, email-addresses, IP addresses, passwords and usernames and even your search queries are currently in the hands of cyber criminals? Crooks would not hesitate to sell your private information to some highly questionable third parties in exchange for money but it goes without saying that this entire scheme cannot end well for you.
