Coupon Amazing Ads

What is Coupon Amazing?

Coupon Amazing is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) compatible with Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome.

The developers of this rogue browser add-on employ a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling' (stealth installation of additional applications together with the chosen software), and therefore, many users inadvertently install Coupon Amazing when downloading free software from freeware download websites.

This software claims to save time and money by enabling coupons, comparison shopping, and displaying special deals/discounts available on shopping websites. Although this browser extension appears useful and legitimate, be aware that Coupon Amazing is considered to be adware.

Following successful infiltration, Coupon Amazing generates numerous intrusive online advertisements such as banner, in-text, shopping comparison, transitional ads, and converts words within websites into hyperlinks that lead to advertisements including Nav Links, InterYield, etc.

There is a high probability that clicking these advertisements will cause high-risk adware or malware infections.

In addition, users' Internet browsing activity is continually monitored, since this PUP collects various information that may be personally identifiable. For example: IP addresses, unique identifier numbers, geo-locations, operating systems, browser types, website URLs visited, search queries entered, pages viewed, and other similar details.

It is highly probable that information tracking such as this will result in serious privacy issues or even identity theft, and for this reason, you are strongly advised to eliminate Coupon Amazing from your Internet browsers.

Coupon Amazing is similar to other PUPs that employ bundling as an installation method (for example, All Day Savings, Coupon Blaster, Jazzed Savings, and many others). None of these browser plug-ins add any real value for the user - their purpose is to generate income by the display of intrusive online advertisements.

Internet users commonly infect their computers with Coupon Amazing during download of free software via small programs called 'download clients' on freeware download websites such as download.com, soft32.com, softonic.com, etc.

Download clients are used to monetize these websites' free services by offering installation of promoted (according to the developers, '100% virus-free') browser plug-ins together with the chosen free software. Thus, careless download and installation of freeware often results in adware or malware infections.

To avoid installation of Coupon Amazing, or other potentially unwanted programs, be attentive during download of free software and click 'Decline' if installation of any additional applications is offered.

If you are installing downloaded software, select the 'Advanced' or 'Custom' installation options, rather than 'Quick' or 'Regular' - this will reveal any bundled applications listed for installation and allow you to decline them. If you have already installed Coupon Amazing, follow this removal guide to eliminate it from your Internet browsers.
