What is Jazzed Savings?
The Jazzed Savings browser add-on claims to improve the quality of users' online shopping experience by displaying best available deals and discounts. Although this may seem a legitimate browser extension, be aware that it is considered to be a potentially unwanted application or adware.
Jazzed Savings employs a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling' to install on Internet browsers (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome), without users' consent. Bundling is stealth installation of additional applications together with the chosen software.
Users commonly install Jazzed Savings adware during the download or installation of free software from freeware download websites such as download.com, soft32.com, softonic.com, and many others.
Jazzed Savings is not technically a virus or malware, however, once this extension successfully infiltrates Internet browsers, it generates various intrusive online advertisement that may be infectious (for example, banner, transitional, comparison shopping, or in-text ads).
In addition, this rogue browser add-on monitors users' Internet browsing activity by recording various software and hardware information, which may be personally identifiable. For example, browser type, operating system, Internet Protocol (IP), location, and other similar details.
Having adware such as Jazzed Savings installed on your Internet browsers may lead to serious privacy issues or malware infections, and since this browser plug-in adds no real value and diminishes browser performance, you are strongly advised to eliminate it from your computer.
Most potentially unwanted applications similar to Jazzed Savings are distributed via small programs called 'download clients' within freeware download websites. These programs are used to monetize the websites' free services by offering installation of promoted browser extensions together with the chosen free software.
Thus, careless download and installation of freeware often leads to adware or malware infections.
To avoid infecting your Internet browsers with Jazzed Savings, or other similar adware (for example, Savings Avenger, Supra Savings, and Coupon Downloader), closely observe each step of the freeware download process and decline installation of any additional programs offered.
If you are installing downloaded software, choose the 'Custom' or 'Advanced' installation settings - this will reveal any bundled applications listed for installation, and you will be able to remove them. Users who have already installed Jazzed Savings should follow this removal guide to uninstall it from their Internet browsers.
