Where does Dealsy come from?

We are sure that you have several unwanted programs on-board because there is no way in the world this application would enter your computer on its own. Our security researchers were not able to find any website that would be responsible the program’s distribution. Therefore, it is only natural to assume that Dealsy usually gets distributed in software bundles.

That would not be surprising because Dealsy belongs to the Multiplug family of adware applications. They are based on the JustPlugIt engine, and they spread around the web in the InstallRex installers. In some cases, depending on the sites you visit or your location, Dealsy might also enter your PC via the Amonetize or Vittalia installers. The point is that this program does not infect you behind your back. You allow this application to enter your system when you install freeware and breeze through the installation process.

What does Dealsy do?

This application is practically the same as RelaySoft, MegaSearch, MonsonRevenue, and many other adware apps from the same group. Thus, it functions just like all of its predecessors. The program employs tracking cookies to monitor your online activity. Monitoring your activity is necessary if the program intends to display tailored commercial advertisements. And this is exactly what Dealsy is going to do.

Dealsy will show a lot of commercial advertisements that will promote third-party content. These advertisements will contain links to sites where you can supposedly purchase something you want at a lower price. But there is no guarantee that you will be redirected to reliable websites. You have to refrain from clicking the Dealsy ads because some of them might be embedded with corrupted links that lead to dangerous web pages. If the worst happens, you will be infected with malware, and all of personal information will be leaked to unreliable third parties.
