Free-coupons.network is a misleading pop-up attacking Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and other popular browsers. The website displays frustrating alerts to make the users fulfill its misleading guidelines. The danger is not in the pop-up itself but rather in the relation to free-coupons.network with other malicious pages, to which it attempts to redirect you. Currently, this problem bothers many people who do not know how to block the website from displaying its unsolicited ads.

Free-coupons.network is very similar to clckworld.club, dreamteammyfriend.com and other intrusive websites showing ads not controlled by the users. Of course, encountering these alerts permanently is a very distracting factor. You may be in the process of writing an email to your friend, or calculating your tax rebates, or performing some other important work online, whereas your concentrated process will be suddenly interrupted by several repeated alerts deriving from the free-coupons.network domain.

The origin of free-coupons.network pop-ups

The permanent intrusive behavior of free-coupons.network in your browser may be the evidence of a serious adware infection or PUP (potentially unwanted program) to be currently active in your computer. Sometimes it is easy to establish where exactly they are located, whereas often the malicious software may be concealed deep in the system without giving the users a chance to easily remove it.

The majority of adware and PUPs today are distributed on the basis of bundling with other free applications downloaded by the people. The web is full of the resources where great free programs may be downloaded, however, sometimes bundling with other unwanted extra utilities is the price some users have to pay for using the free tool they’ve chosen to install.

Free-coupons.network – why is it dangerous

The problem is that when you mistakenly click on “Allow” your browser will be brutally hijacked. Free-coupons.network will gain partial control over your browsing activities and will start randomly showing its ads that may look as large rectangular boxes or small pop-ups containing links to third-party pages. Redirections by free-coupons.network are not safe and may bring you to the following shady places:

• websites aiming to collect your personal and financial details.
