TremendousCoupon

TremendousCoupon is a Chrome extension that delivers extra in-browser advertisements, which TremendousCoupon promotes as e-coupons and other options for shopping-related savings. While TremendousCoupon isn't threatening, malware researchers have seen recent versions of TremendousCoupon using invasive installation practices to guarantee its persistence on the affected browser. To prevent TremendousCoupon from reinstalling itself or causing other, long term issues for your Web-browsing experience, you should use proven anti-adware tools and strategies to remove TremendousCoupon as thoroughly as possible.

The Add-On Too Tremendous to Show Itself

Although malware experts have seen a notable increase in Chrome-specific adware throughout the past two years, some forms of adware are more intrusive than others. TremendousCoupon, although only identified recently, already has made a name for itself for its persistence throughout system reboots and even throughout Safe Mode, a feature intended specifically for troubleshooting with unnecessary software. In spite of only being seen on the Chrome browser, TremendousCoupon typically doesn't display an extension within that browser's settings, only making TremendousCoupon identifiable through its labeled advertisements.

Like many adware products that preceded it, TremendousCoupon displays its advertisements through HTML injection. TremendousCoupon advertisements normally are detectable through their 'advertisement by TremendousCoupon' labels, and may include both pop-up images and keyword-based hyperlinks. These advertisements, while not intentionally threatening, may run the risk of loading threatening content, and may modify the viewed websites in ways not intended by their owners. These modifications may increase loading times, block content or cause other symptoms that malware experts rate as net negatives to any Web-surfing experience.

Shrinking a Tremendous Adware Down to Size

Installers for TremendousCoupon may reinstall this adware repeatedly, but malware experts also have verified recent incidents of adware 'rotations.' In the latter cases, incomplete uninstall procedures for TremendousCoupon sometimes resulted in the installation of equivalent adware by another brand name, such as ActiveCoupon. This history could indicate of TremendousCoupon's being a direct clone of past adware, or, simply, a product benefiting from invasive installers bundling numerous adware programs together.

The unusually high rates for samples of TremendousCoupon reinstalling themselves, or being reinstalled by third parties, forces malware experts to recommend additional steps for dealing with this Chrome add-on. In addition to using Safe Mode as the preferred environment for any anti-adware scans, you also should consider clearing your browser's cache and disabling all add-ons. If your anti-adware tools offer additional threat detection features, such as in-depth scanning options, you also may wish to use them to be sure that you've deleted TremendousCoupon permanently.

TremendousCoupon's distribution was first confirmed late in April of 2015. Rather than a standard website or other, apparent distribution channel, TremendousCoupon appears to be using bundles and other methods that may not require your consent before installing this program.
