Shoppr Removal Guide

Shoppr is a Mozilla Firefox extension that offers you an opportunity to save money while you are shopping online, which seems to be an over-used cover story for lots of ad-supported applications that simply tend to flood your screen with random ads. Have you been seeing all kinds of pop-up ads, best offers, and coupons while browsing online shops? If so, there is a chance that your computer has been infected with this adware. And if this program is on your computer, there is also a good chance that you will find other malware infections as well threatening your virtual security. Keeping Shoppr in your browser may expose you to unreliable ads and, through them, potentially dangerous websites. Even if you do not use Firefox, you still may not be safe because of the other threats. Therefore, we advise you to remove Shoppr and seek out all other infections that may be endangering the health of your computer. You need to act now, if you want to secure your precious PC.

This adware program pretends to be your “best friend” who can help you save money by showing you the best prices available in thousands of local stores. It also claims to notify you of coupons and to enable you to compare prices. And all this for free, of course. Well, not exactly, because free apps usually do come at a price. In this case, it may be your computer’s security or even worse. But why would you want a browser extension that only works in one of the major browsers? Does it not make you think why this “very useful” tool is not compatible with at least Google Chrome and Internet Explorer? Would you not try to make your product available for all those users who cover the majority of internet users? Is it possible that this application is not reliable and, also, it is spread in an alternative way so that it ends up on more users’ computers? Our answer to the last question is certainly “yes.”

The chance for people to find the official site, getshoppr.com, is very low. Although you can install the extension directly from there, we do not believe that this is the only way the creators choose to distribute their “gold mine.” As a matter of fact, Shoppr can be found bundled with other malware infections. We are not surprised to find this version of this adware because most adware apps, browser hijackers, and potentially unwanted programs apply this method to spread on the web. It is the best way for them to do so since lots of people like free programs and most of them are quite careless about the websites they choose to download freeware from. That is why these infected bundles are mostly hosted on suspicious file-sharing websites. If you install such a package, you need to know that deleting Shoppr will not help you restore the previous security level of your computer. It will be necessary for you to take care of all other possible threats as well.

Eliminating Shoppr is practically the easiest thing you can imagine. Since this adware has no uninstaller, you cannot remove it via Control Panel. But it is still very easy to stop the flow of the ads. You simply have to get rid of the extension in Firefox. Please use our instructions below if you have never done that before. However, if you want to make sure that your PC is secure again, we recommend that you use antimalware software to detect threats and clean them from your computer. Protect your operating system with a powerful security tool if you do not want to face malware infections again.
