The ActiveDeals software is recognized by security analysts because it functions as a private advertisement platform for adware developers to earn pay-per-click revenue. The ActiveDeals adware is dispersed among PC users by using freeware installers as vessels. Adware developers prefer to deploy their apps incorporated with third party software because most users install free software via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option and that allows them to reach a significant number of users. Web surfers may encounter ads by ActiveDeals across different web browsers because the ActiveDeals adware may use a Browser Helper Object, and add-on, a plugin and an extension to facilitate its operations. The ActiveDeals adware may inject the websites loaded in your web client with banners, pop-up windows and contextual and transitional commercials. Moreover, the ActiveDeals adware may replace ads on trusted sites with ads that link to potentially harmful domains. The ActiveDeals adware can use HTTP cookies and record web and DOM storage data in order to display related commercials as seen in other adware such as 50Coupons and My Deals Club. Additionally, the ActiveDeals adware may insert a registry key in Windows to start with your OS and ensure its operations every time you launch your Internet browser. Users can remove the ActiveDeals adware efficiently by using a renowned anti-spyware tool.
