The role this EnjoyCoupon adware plays on the infected computer is to cause non-stop popping ups and redirect you to some malicious web sites rather than those you really mean to visit. This has been known to all as a common feature of browser hijacker viruses. Due to the browser hijacker character, this adware is also hard to detect since it has been enabled to bypass the general scans of many antivirus software. But the computer users can feel obviously that their PCs are working improperly. Why can’t the antivirus software notice this adware immediately when it firstly gets installed onto the PC? Many victims of this pop up are puzzled about that. The reason is simple. This adware is commonly bundled with some free programs that the innocent users download off the internet. As known to all, free software won’t disclose adequately to the users that there will be some other software installed along with its installation. In that way, people may get this adware without their knowledge.


What kind of harm can this EnjoyCoupon Adware do to an infected computer? This is what most people worry about. Advertised as a program which always displays coupons, this adware often lists the coupons of some sites that the users have recently visited. It was created to help people enjoy better experience on online shopping but the way it uses and the effects it takes to the computer have made it a malicious pop up instead of a useful shopping assistant. It meant to give people with competitive prices when the users are viewing some commercial websites such as Amazon. But it brings unwanted bad effects to the PC which makes it an adware rather than a useful service tool. It often causes endless popping up of ads, countless redirections and unexpected installation of unknown programs.

Browser hijacker issue is not often taken as a serious problem by many computer users. But actually such kind of virus is rather dangerous than malicious. Take this EnjoyCoupon Adware as an example, it not only makes the infected computer runs slowly and arises chaos in the system but also reveals the online activities of the computer users. As we can see that, this adware often provides us some of coupons that we ever search or visit, which indicates privacy revealing. From what has been mentioned above we can tell that it is not safe to have such computer infection on our computers. The best way to protect us from being affected by viruses is to remove them as soon as we find any.
