SuperCouponPro Toolbar is another toolbar from the Mindspark family, and like most of other tools released by Mindspark Interactive Network Inc., it was also classified as a potentially unwanted program (PUP). The application might not be a huge threat to your computer’s security, but with the toolbar's help, you could encounter more dangerous software or perhaps even malware. Such a risk is entirely possible since the PUP might advertise third-party web pages or products that could be malicious. We will explain more about this advertising content further in the article. For now, you should simply know our specialists advise against the SuperCouponPro Toolbar’s usage and consequently recommend removing it either manually while following the instructions located below or automatically with a security tool you trust.
The threat is both advertised and distributed on its official website available on supercouponpro.com/index.jhtml. Once loaded the site may show a pop-up with a short application’s description and a download button. If you have not noticed this earlier, the pop-up also provides links to the software’s Terms of Use, End User License Agreement, and Privacy Policy documents. The bad news is that these documents speak of all programs created by Mindspark Interactive Network Inc., so it might be difficult to find parts fitting for SuperCouponPro Toolbar. Luckily, we managed to do so, and while reviewing these statements, we learned quite a lot about the advertising content this PUP might display to the user.
For example, the Terms of use document says the company “do not endorse any of the products or services linked to, from or through the MyWay Services,” nor do they take “any steps to confirm the accuracy or reliability of any of the information provided by third parties.” These statements most likely speak of third-party content that could be displayed through search.myway.com. This search engine is another creation from the Mindspark family. It might enter the system with SuperCouponPro Toolbar or other similar PUPs. The problem with it is the modified search results, since they may include third-party pop-ups, banners, sponsored links, and other suspicious content. As we just quoted the threat’s creators do not review its promoted content, so it is possible that some of the ads could offer to install different PUPs, adware, browser hijackers, and other potentially dangerous software or even malware.
Furthermore, as you probably already know, SuperCouponPro Toolbar is supposed to help users find the latest deals, coupons, layaway services, freebies, etc. Thus, even if you manage to avoid using search.myway.com, you may still encounter unreliable advertising content while using the toolbar’s features. We doubt the software’s creators review this content either, so while users look for best deals, they could land on potentially dangerous web pages and so endanger the system. In other words, there are no guarantees the advertisements will be secure and will not lead you to malicious sites.
Provided your computer’s security is your top priority it would be advisable to delete this suspicious application. If you did not install it by accident and actually looked for a tool showing ads, we would advise you to look for a more reliable alternative that could provide you only with trustworthy ads. Erasing SuperCouponPro Toolbar should not be so hard, especially if you already have experience with threats alike. Also, to make it easier, we are adding our recommended deletion steps below this article too. However, if you do not feel up to this task, you can acquire a reliable antimalware tool instead and let it do all the job for you.
