Crazydeal virus

Crazydeal (Crazy deal) is essentially defined as advertisement-supported freeware in the adware category of computer threats that uses multiple and standalone potentially unwanted programs (PUP) to serve targeted advertisements across multiple internet browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Ads by Crazydeal can be delivered by standalone browser helper objects and programs, as well as injected code, or browser add-ons and extensions. This means that in order to remove Crazydeal it may be necessary to uninstall multiple programs and remove multiple browser attachments.

Potential Crazydeal malware is often referred to as the Crazydeal virus even though the adware is not a technically computer virus or infection. This is most likely because adware and potentially unwanted programs may share the same deceptive tactics to enter a computer system. They may also violate basic civil liberties by accessing a large amount of user browsing data (bookmarks, history, etc.) and often bundle and install alongside multiple programs, malware, and other malicious threats.
