ExtraMacDeal

ExtraMacDeal is an advertisement-supported cross-browser Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that uses browser helper objects, add-ons, and extensions to access user information and display pop-up advertisements on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Most users complain that ExtraMacDeal adware installed onto the computer systems without consent. Once installed, ExtraMacDeal will have permissions that allow it and/or third-party items that it may bundle with to access and collect user information used for targeted advertising.

Ads by ExtraMacDeal are displayed in a variety of advertisement styles and platforms, including in-text ads, banner ads, pop-under ads, and more.

Furthermore, if you find ExtraMacDeal installed on your computer, it is highly likely that additional third-party programs such as Additional Offers and Cine-Plus are installed. These programs must also be removed in order to stop unwanted advertisements and slow computer performance.
