AutoCouponMaker

If you access autocouponmaker.info, you will encounter a very generic website that is supposed to promote a browser extension called AutoCouponMaker. The browser extension supposedly “makes things easy for shoppers online,” but we do not believe that. In fact, we are convinced that you must remove AutoCouponMaker from your computer if you want to avoid severe computer security problems. Open Control Panel and uninstall AutoCouponMaker right now, and while you are at it, scan the list of installed programs for other potentially unwanted applications. After all, adware programs seldom travel alone!

If you don’t know how to discern reliable and potentially corrupted programs, run a full system scan with the SpyHunter free scanner and the scan results will be presented to you in no time. Then, you will be able to remove all the potential threats automatically. On the other hand, it would be for the best if you were able to avoid installing AutoCouponMaker on your computer in the first place.

Our research suggests that AutoCouponMaker gets distributed via the InstallRex (and sometimes Vittalia or Amonetize) installers that are hosted on file sharing and torrent websites. Usually, users initiate the freeware download when they click fake download buttons and other flash ads on such unreliable pages. This kind of distribution method is very common among adware applications, and all the previously released adware apps from the same group (including SaveON, Luckey Coupon, BestPriceApp, and so on) have employed the very same means of distribution.

The main reason AutoCouponMaker enters your computer is money. The programs developers get paid a particular amount of money whenever you click any of the AutoCouponMaker ads and get redirected to an associated third-party website. This kind of system is called pay-per-click, and it is not malicious, but it could be exploited by cyber criminals to expose users to malware-related pages, so the sooner you remove AutoCouponMaker from your computer, the better.

Don’t think that simply ignoring all the AutoCouponMaker ads will help you save the problem. The long this adware remains on your computer, the more issues it will cause. Adware programs can slow down your system performance and your internet connection. What is more, AutoCouponMaker may also connect to the internet behind your back; download updates for itself and uploading personally non-identifiable information.

Thus, apart from being an extremely annoying application, AutoCouponMaker also breaches your privacy, so you clearly should not tolerate this program. Remove AutoCouponMaker right now via Control Panel and delete it from your browser manually. For any remaining unwanted files or programs, scan your PC with the SpyHunter free scanner and do not hesitate to invest in a legitimate computer security application if necessary.
