How did I get infected with?

Couponing is quite sly when it comes to finding a way into your system. The application usually sneaks in undetected with the help of the old but gold methods of infiltration. More often than not, it hitches a ride with spam email attachments or freeware, corrupted links or sites. However, it can also pretend to be a false program or system update. For example, you may be entirely convinced that you’re updating your Adobe Flash Player or Java, but that won’t be so. In reality, you’ll be giving the green light to Couponing. To keep the tool away from your computer, you need to be extra cautious and to resist the urge to give into naivety and haste. If you’re a bit more attentive, you may actually avoid getting stuck with this hazardous adware.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Couponing is an ad-supported application. If you’re unsure what that implies, it’s pretty straightforward. If the tool is to proceed with its operations, it has to generate pay-per-click revenue for the third parties behind it. How? Well, through its never-ending bombardment of pop-ups. Each ad it fools you into clicking on produces profit for these people and helps it live through another day. If the profits cease, so does the program. To keep that from happening, Couponing spies on your online activities so as to better understand what appeals to you. And, once it does, it picks ads that correspond to your interests. So, each ad you see, was meticulously selected especially for you, and you alone. Unfortunately, the application does more than just observe your browsing. It keeps a thorough record of everything you do, and when it deems it has gathered enough data from you, sends it to the individuals that support it. After it falls into their hands, they can do with it whatever they wish. Are you ready to grant access to your private life to strangers? It’s up to you to decide whether you allow Couponing to stay and make a mess or delete it and save yourself a ton of headaches and problems.
