This new imposter on your computer is adware, and is yet another of the countless annoyances and dangers that we know have to put up with, and protect ourselves from, on a pretty much constant basis. And if you have ever been a victim of adware then you'll know exactly what I'm talking about when I say you definitely want to take steps to protect yourself from being harassed by another one in the future. They say that lightening never strikes twice but unfortunately in the world of malware, this is certainly not true!
What's the point of these ads by TremendousCoupo?
It's a valid question because, let's face it, there are already enough adverts on most websites and injecting even more ads that shouldn't be there is unacceptable. And the fact is that their new TremendousCoupo ads are never, or rarely, going to live up to their standards.
And just what might that motive be? Well the people who create adware have chosen the humble browser as their method of choice in order to display "Ad by TremendousCoupo" adverts and misdirect your internet searches and send you, not to the websites you wanted to visit, but to ones they want you to take a look at instead. Annoying, am I right? So, let's assume that you want to stop adware from infecting your computer – how exactly do you do that?
How to stop TremendousCoupo
Most adware slip unnoticed on to your computer via another program. TremendousCoupo programmers package their product with another piece of software or bundle it with a file – usually freeware or shareware. The owner of these programs or files may know that they have adware piggy backing on them – or they may be completely unaware.
So to stop them in their tracks the main thing you can do is to make sure you read License Agreements carefully as adware will be mentioned somewhere in the small print. Watch out for ambiguous wording though, as well as check boxes that have been configured to automatically install the PUP. I know it's boring, but it's got to be better than being infected by adware and other malware!
