Ads by Majestic Coupons

What is Majestic Coupons?

Developed by Engaging Apps, Majestic Coupons is a potentially unwanted application claiming to save time and money by enabling coupons, comparison shopping, and displaying special deals/discounts available on shopping websites.

While this functionality may seem legitimate, be aware that Majestic Coupons is considered to be adware since it employs a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling' (stealth installation of additional applications together with the chosen software) to install on Internet browsers without users' permission.

After successful infiltration on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox, Majestic Coupons monitors users' Internet browsing activity and generates intrusive online advertisements.

This rogue browser extension generates various intrusive online advertisements including banner, pop-up, text-link, interstitial, sponsored link, and targeted video ads. There is a high probability that clicking these ads will lead to high-risk adware or malware infections.

In addition, Majestic Coupons tracks users' Internet browsing activity by collecting various software and hardware information, which may be personally identifiable such as geographic locations, IP addresses, unique identifier numbers, search queries entered, URLs visited, pages viewed, and other similar details.

This behavior may result in adware or malware infections, and therefore, you are strongly advised to remove Majestic Coupons from your Internet browsers.

Majestic Coupons is similar to other rogue browser extensions (for example, DealCoaster, SaleSlider, and Atomic Savings) claiming to improve users' Internet browsing experience by enabling certain functions. These add-ons are useless for the user - their purpose is to generate revenue by the display of intrusive online advertisements.

Commonly, Internet users inadvertently install adware such as Majestic Coupons via fake downloads (Java updates, browser updates, etc.) and free software 'download clients' employed by freeware download websites including, for example, softonic.com, download.com, and soft32.com amongst many others.

Download clients are used to monetize these websites' free services by offering installation of advertised 'legitimate' browser extensions together with the chosen free software. Thus, careless download and installation of freeware risks computers infection with adware or malware.

This situation can be prevented by closely inspecting each step of the free software download process and never accepting installation of any additional programs offered. In addition, if you are installing downloaded software, choose the 'Advanced' or 'Custom' installation options - this will reveal any hidden applications listed for installation and allow you to decline them.
