DigiCoupon virus. How to remove? (Uninstall guide)
What is DigiCoupon?
DigiCoupon is a potentially unwanted program that can easily infiltrate your computer without being noticed. In most of the cases, it does that with a help of freeware, so you should try to be very careful when installing your next free app from the Internet. Please, check what its Privacy Policy and User’s License Agreement reports before installing free application on your computer. If you see that some of statements that are included to this information look suspicious, you should look for another download manager, video streaming software, video recording software or similar program that is offered for free. If DigiCoupon manages to hide inside of these programs or if it convinces its victim that it’s worth installing it, it may not only alter some of your PC’s settings. It may also hijack each of your web browsers and then may start initiating its affiliate marketing campaigns and other questionable activities. What exactly is caused by this adware. The clearest thing is its continuous pop-up ads that may interrupt you no matter what website you decide to visit. After clicking them, DigiCoupon ads may redirect you to its affiliate websites that may be seeking to increase their page rank or sales. What is promoted by this adware can hardly be predicted because there are hundreds of questionable websites and programs that are related to this application. That’s why you should be very careful with DigiCoupon ads. If you want to avoid infiltration of other questionable apps, you should stay away from its ads as far as you can. As we have already mentioned, this program may infiltrate your machine without an appropriate permission asked. If you have already noticed its ads during your browsing, stay calm and check your PC with reputable anti-spyware. It will help you to remove each of suspicious entries from the system. For the removal of DigiCoupon we highly recommend using Reimage (Windows OS) or Webroot SecureAnywhere AntiVirus (Windows and Mac OS X).
How can DigiCoupon hijack my computer?
DigiCoupon redirects to affiliate websites are initiated as soon as this program enters computer. You can easily install this program on your computer manually but it can also infiltrate your machine in a bundle with other applications. For avoiding this and other potentially unwanted programs, we highly recommend you to choose Custom or Advanced installation of the freeware/shareware. In addition to this, make sure you follow each installation step and opt out of ‘optional downloads’, including DigiCoupon and other add-ons, plugins, toolbars and extensions. If you have already been convinced to install this application on your computer, you should be prepared for annoying pop-up ads that typically report about coupons, discounts, sales and price comparisons. In addition to that, you should take into account that DigiCoupon may be set to start your browsing habits and collect information about you.
