KingThink is claimed as an adware program by computer security researchers even as it could be noticed as a web browser extension or add-on component. The KingThink adware is known for its actions of loading advertisements that attempt to offer various coupon deals or online savings through specific shopping sites and products. The KingThink adware could also reduce performance of web browser applications where loading of pages that have heavy media content may not load quickly. Use of the KingThink ads, usually in pop-up or banner format, may redirect your browser to other sites potentially containing unwanted content. Removal of the KingThink ads may require use of an antispyware application.
