Do you know what DealForUse is?
DealForUse is the clone of WorldWideCoupon, RedShiftPrices, LowPricesApp, Cheap-o, and hundreds of other unreliable programs that adware developers have created using the infamous Justplugit engine. These ad-supported programs are distributed by untrustworthy installers that are most definitely going to spread them bundled with browser hijackers, adware, and potentially unwanted programs, such as LightningDownloader. Users usually install these programs by accident when trying to download updates, video codecs, or other legitimate-looking software promoted via unreliable P2P sites. Continue reading our report to find why you must delete DealForUse from your browsers, and which removal methods you should employ to eliminate third-party infections.
The worst part about DealForUse is that there is very little information about this program and its removal. It does not have a website that represents it, and the information provided during the installation is very scarce. What is more, computer users usually do not pay attention to this information anyway. Our team has plenty of experience analyzing and removing Justplugit adware, which is why we know how DealForUse works. The first thing we should discuss is the program’s ability to connect to the Internet without your permission. If you block this connection, the program will not be able to connect to remote adware servers, and potentially misleading ads will not be injected into the sites you visit. Of course, you need to remove DealForUse-related files to disable this connection, and most users are unaware of this.
Unreliable files are not the only thing that you need to worry about. It is just as important that you eliminate the tracking cookies associated with DealForUse. Some of these cookies might belong to this ad-supported program, but others might belong to undisclosed parties, and this is what disconcerts us the most. What if malicious parties were to install their own cookies to collect your personal information and spy on you in an intrusive manner? If you do not want to fall victim to this kind of malicious activity, we strongly recommend that you delete DealForUse from your operating system right now.
Most users who uninstall DealForUse find that they also need to delete this program from Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers. Unfortunately, this is not where the operation ends for the most of users who also need to find and eliminate malicious files and tracking cookies. Luckily, you do not need to waste your time identifying and removing DealForUse or other threats manually. Instead, install a trustworthy security program that will automatically remove malware and, most importantly, will ensure that malicious and intrusive programs cannot attack in the future.
