Coupoon is a potentially unwanted adware program that is malicious and intrusive, not to mention, harmful. It slithers its way into your system by means of slyness and subtlety and then proceeds to make a mess. Shortly after it latches onto your computer, it commences a full-on bombardment of pop-up ads. Every single time you try to use your browser, you’ll be interrupted by an entire array of ads. And, since that will happen quite often, the pop-ups’ incessant appearance will lead to frequent system crashes, and will also slow down your computer’s performance to a crawl. Furthermore, the ads that the application will continuously throw your way are immensely unreliable. If you click on even one, by choice or accident, all you’ll have to show for it is more unwanted malware getting installed on your PC. What’s more, Coupoon places your personal and financial information in grave jeopardy. The program spies on you in an attempt to steal your private data, and then send it to unknown third parties. The question is, are you going to allow that to happen? Do what’s best for you and your computer, and get rid of this useless, hazardous tool the first chance you get. You won’t regret it.

How did I get infected with?

Coupoon has an entire set of tricks with which it can dupe you into approving its installation. The program relies on deception, naivety, and haste in order to gain access to your system. It resorts to the old but gold methods of invasion so as to sneak in. That includes hitching a ride with freeware or hiding behind spam email attachments, corrupted links, or websites. Also, it can pretend to be a false system or program update, like Adobe Flash Player or Java. However, the application’s most preferred and most commonly used way of infiltration is through freeware as it provides possibly the easiest entry point. That’s because users don’t pay nearly as enough attention as they should during its install. They rush the process and don’t even bother reading the terms and conditions. Instead, they just agree to everything and hope for the best. Well, they quickly learn the error of their ways when they get stuck with Coupoon. If you wish to avoid that, be sure to be more careful and don’t rush. Remember that a little extra attention today can save you a lot of headaches and troubles tomorrow.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Coupoon is an ad-supported application, whose entire existence relies on whether or not the tool can generate web traffic and produce pay-per-click revenue for the third parties behind it. That’s why the program floods you with so many pop-ups. If it is to continue its operations, it has to fool you into clicking on them. Otherwise, it will cease to exist. Each ad you click on generates profits for these individuals. That is why in order to increase its likelihood of success, the tool leaves nothing to chance. Coupoon doesn’t just bombard you with random ads and hope for the best. Oh, no. Instead, the program starts to observe your browsing habits as soon as it infects your system. It does so in order to understand what appeals to you, what you like and dislike. After it learns what your preferences include, the waterfall of “appropriate” ads commences. The application floods you with ads, which are most likely to spark your interest and result in a click. So, the ads you see are chosen specifically for you, and you alone. Unfortunately, the program doesn’t merely monitor your browsing activities. It catalogs every move you make, and when it feels it has gathered a sufficient amount of data from you, it proceeds to send it to the people that published it. That means malicious strangers with wicked agendas will have access to your personal and financial information. Do you think anything positive will come from that? Don’t take such an unnecessary, colossal risk! Get rid of Coupoon as soon as you first realize it has invaded your system! Protect yourself and your privacy! Your future self will thank you for it.
