About WhiteCoupon adware
Even though it is described as useful application that will help you to save both your time and money when shopping online by providing you with various coupons, deals and commercial offers, this is not true. The problem is that all those coupons and offers are displayed in annoying form of web advertisements, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements.
Usually advertisements displayed by WhiteCoupon appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon and offers you to purchase some particular goods at very appealing price rate. You should not fall for this trick because most of the time those offers are fake – they are just trying to win your attention and make you click on one of those advertisements this way.
Another unwanted attribute of WhiteCoupon is data collection. Once inside it will collect your personal information, such as browsing history, search queries, most visited sites or even your IP and email addresses. They adjust those advertisements according to collected data and make them even more relevant and attractive to you this way, so chances that you will click on one of them rise. And that’s the main goal of WhiteCoupon because they get paid for every click you make.
Distribution Methods of WhiteCoupon adware
WhiteCoupon is distributed the same way as most of other adware – bundled with various free software that can be download from unreliable websites. So when you download and install some suspicious media player or PDF generator, there is a chance that WhiteCoupon will be installed alongside without you even being aware of that. To avoid this happening always pay close attention to the installation process of freeware.
Never skip any steps and opt out for a custom or advanced install mode if possible. This way you will be able to see all available options and make needed changes. Reading all terms and conditions would be considered wise as well. Don’t rush because some of the most important information can be displayed in a very tiny font and you don’t want to overlook it. If during the installation you notice that some additional software that you are not aware of is being installed alongside – don’t allow this installation to be completed because it can possibly be WhiteCoupon or any other malware that you don’t want to see installed on your computer.
