Underground Coupon is an adware extension developed and distributed by Lamphouse Media, a software publisher whose name can be associated with some adware applications. Underground Coupon uses misleading advertising techniques to trick users into believing that by installing this browser extension they'll be the first to get information about the best discounts, coupon codes, and promotions from thousands of verified online retailers. However, Underground Coupon's functionality is questionable, and we assure you that this utility won't help you save money or time while shopping online. In fact, the only significant change that Underground Coupon may bring is the annoying 'Underground Coupon Ads' that it may inject in your web browser.

The Underground Coupon extension can be downloaded from the publisher's web page, but most of this adware's installations occur thanks to the use of unfair propagation techniques. The Underground Coupon adware may be distributed via software bundles that may attempt to trick the user to agree unknowingly to install Underground Coupon. Naturally, the best way to prevent adware like Underground Coupon from entering your computer is to use a reliable antivirus software suite, but you can also keep such threats away by paying more attention to the applications you install on your computer. You should make sure to opt-out of any offers to install optional components, as well as to avoid downloading applications from untrustworthy web pages.
