Fun2Save Removal Guide

Do you know what Fun2Save is?

Fun2Save is an adware application that may display an extensive list of commercial coupons, whenever you access popular online shopping malls. It is not an extreme computer threat, but if you are at least a little bit security-minded you will not want to have Fun2Save on your computer. This application relies on using third party advertising network for its ads, which means that even cyber criminals could make use of Fun2Save to promote their malicious content. Hence, it means that it is better to remove Fun2Save and other similar applications from your computer.

Perhaps you do not really know where this application has come from. It actually has a home page at fun2save.info. However, if you try downloading the application from this site, you will be redirected to Google Chrome app store. That is not something you would expect of a legitimate browser extension. Also, this behavior is rather similar to NewSaver which is also a potentially unwanted program from the same group.

What is more, despite the fact that Fun2Save has a home page, it does not provide you with information on how this add-on works exactly. It only says that the plugin will help you save money and you will enjoy your online shopping more. Nevertheless, you can find a little bit more info in the Privacy Policy section. For example, it says that Fun2Save collects information that is related to the websites you visit and your activity on those pages. This information is obviously collected in order to provide you with relevant commercial ads and discount offers.

However, the coupons and other third party content displayed by Fun2Save are not generated by it. For the most part they are provided by DropInSaving$ advertising network and any third party practice is not covered by Fun2Save’s Privacy Policy, which means that the application is not responsible for a third party content, even if it exposes you to potential security threats.

That is the main concern when it comes to such adware applications – they can be easily exploited in a malware distribution scheme and you could accidentally find yourself in a website that is related to dangerous computer infections. Although Fun2Save’s main intention definitely does not involve infecting you with malware you should steal keep your guard on.

Get yourself a reliable antimalware tool and scan your computer for any potentially unwanted programs. Remove these programs if need be, and then make sure that no other undesirable application gets into your system again.
