Where does DealsFox come from?

DealsFox is a typical adware application, because it has more than just one distribution method. It can be easily downloaded at deals-fox.com. As one can obviously see, this website is the main DealsFox’s homepage. This extension might also redirect you to dealsfox.com, but the latter website is not working.

Apart from the main homepage and direct download, DealsFox can also be bundled with freeware. For example, based on our research, DealsFox is bundled with Coupons bar Smartbar, and as a result, you may also be asked to change your default homepage for Coupons-bar.

It requires a level of caution whenever you are about to install an application downloaded from unknown website. In fact, it would be for the best if you refrained from downloading freeware applications from unfamiliar web pages.

What does DealsFox do?

Since it is an adware application, DealsFox is supposedly there to help you save money on your purchases online. It says that with DealsFox you can:

Get the best deals and coupons online

  • Enjoy quality deals and amazing offers

  • Share your special deals with friends and family

  • Be the first to know about the best deals

  • Get special offers daily to your inbox.

It would be great that DealsFox could do that, but unfortunately, displaying coupons and discount offers is not the only thing this application is “famous” for. In fact, if you go through the installation automatically, you will end up with a number of other unwanted apps on your computer, and a list of annoying browser modifications.

As it has been mentioned above, Coupons-bar smart bar is configured to be set as your default search engine on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome automatically, and if you skip this installation step, your browser settings will be modified! You will also install a number of other unwanted applications on your computer, but there is no need to tolerate them.

How to remove DealsFox?

You can uninstall DealsFox manually via Control Panel. Take note that manual removal affects only the extension on Internet Explorer. As far as extensions on Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are concerned, you will need to remove them manual via browser settings.

Afterwards, you are strongly recommended to run a full system scan with SpyHunter free scanner, because it is a good and reliable way to check whether all the potentially unwanted applications have been removed from your PC for good. Get yourself a powerful antimalware tool if need be.
