TruNavi is adware that may not be as useful as the clients may expect. Its developers distribute it as a reliable browser assistant that can help the user in more than one way. Allegedly, TruNavi should fix your typing errors and inform you about the best coupons and deals for that day. The second feature is the reason many computer users may not prefer to keep this adware. The people behind TruNavi state that its price comparison widget will start working only when the user enables it. However, the questionable add-on is active at all times and may cause a set of unrequested modifications in the web clients that may prove to be annoying. For example, you may notice that your default homepage is now gone. Instead, when you launch Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer, you may see an unknown search site that copies the design of legitimate engines. It may display inaccurate results in an effort to boost the traffic to third-party affiliate platforms, so you should not use it. The deals and discounts that TruNavi shows come in the form of aggressive pop-ups, eye-catching banners and automatically started videos. The last may slow down the operating speed of your web clients because they may seize some of the available RAM. Nothing guarantees that the commercial materials will take you towards legitimate shopping sites. You should know that there are numerous cases where the users have been dragged to fraudulent or malicious sites by similar add-ons, so you should avoid the ads by TruNavi. The adware may travel bundled with freeware, which means you may be unaware that you are about to install it. If the performance of TruNavi ruins your surfing sessions, you should use advanced security software to delete it.
