Dealnj is a cross-compatible Web extension that introduces itself as a reliable shopping assistant. Its description assures PC users that the new deals and coupons will save them some money. However, Dealnj is a typical adware designed to create page impressions on partner sites. Its presence in your system may not be helpful to you. When it comes to ad-oriented extensions, you should know that they benefit mainly their developers. These applications may transfer users to affiliated platforms in exchange for commissions. The creators of similar add-ons may not invest too much time and efforts to make sure that all of the partner domains are safe. As a result, the commercial materials by Dealnj may sometimes redirect you to pages that you don't want to visit such as threatening or fraudulent platforms. The Dealnj adware may rely on cookies to get to know your interests. As the time passes, you may notice user-relevant coupons and discounts. You should remember not to install any software in case you decide to explore them. If you abstain from clicking on the ads, you may prevent potential damage, but you may still face various issues. Whenever you launch Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, you may encounter too many new pop-ups, banners and blinking animations. Dealnj also may embed video materials in Web pages. It will be understandable if the new ads irritate you because of their intrusive nature. They also may disrupt the performance of the Web clients with unexpected freezes and speed drops. In case you didn't approve the installation of Dealnj, it probably came alongside some other freeware. The right course of action is to scan your PC with reliable security software to delete this adware.
