Deal Vault ads are generated by the Deal Vault application and what they should present you with is coupons for a variety of online shopping websites. Using Deal Vault should save you time because you will receive all available coupons in one place and you do not have to look for them separately. It should also save you money because you will be able to purchase your desired products at lower prices. The problem with Deal Vault ads, however, is that among them there will be some third-party ones because the application is categorized as adware, and therefore should not be trusted.
How did I get infected with?
The download button at the official website deal-vault.com is active, so the application can be downloaded from it. Yet, programs like Deal Vault are rarely acquired through their homepages simply because you do not just bump into such a website, you have to look for it and for the particular application. Since there is not a great chance for this to happen, you will not be wrong to conclude that Deal Vault enters the system without permission. This can happen through software bundles, spam email attachments, etc. All in all, you have to be careful how you browse the web and what content you download if you want to avoid similar programs.
Why are these ads dangerous?
It is possible that Deal Vault will provide you with some useful coupons, though you may find it difficult to distinguish the genuine from the corrupted ones. The application is sponsored by unknown third parties and a great number of the ads it displays belong to them. These third parties are not endorsed by Deal Vault and the content they present to users is not reviewed by the developers of the application. This means that it might contain practically anything, including malware. This is the reason why you should not trust ads by Deal Vault and should make sure the application is deleted from your computer right away.
