• Ways to delete Coupondo
Coupondo is a browser extension for unauthorized display of advertisements to users. A malicious application is usually part of a variety of programs for free download. When they are installed, a number of additional modules are offered by default, including Coupondo. By rejecting the offer, you can avoid problems, otherwise you will have to look for ways to solve them.
Signs of Coupondo infection
The obsessive display of pop–up ads on all visited pages is one of the signs of the introduction of the Coupondo program into the operating system. The second symptom of infection is the interception of browser search settings with redirection to certain URLs. If another site opens in the browser instead of the usual home page, it is worth checking your computer for extraneous files and startup keys. Usually the results are brought by a system search by name Coupondo.dll or just a Coupondo.
Ways to delete Coupondo
If malware is detected, care must be taken to remove it. If desired, it is easy to find special scanners and utilities on the network to eliminate the Coupondo application. Sometimes the uninstall is complicated by malicious processes. If it is impossible to delete it, you must use the safe mode.
Ways to manually eliminate the threat in different operating systems and browsers:
• Windows 8. "Control Panel" – "Programs and Features" – Coupondo – "Uninstall".
• Windows 7/Vista. "Start" – "Control Panel" – "Programs and Features" – Coupondo – "Delete".
• Windows XP. "Start" – "Control Panel" – "Add/Remove programs" – Coupondo – "Uninstall".
