What is Generous Deal?

Generous Deal is an application that can be considered as adware. Generous Deal exists in the form of browser plugin and can be installed without user’s interference. When it arrives on the system it sets itself in Start up processes, so it would launch itself every time the system starts. So it would spoil the browsing experience every time you visit any pages by generating tons of ads. And the only way to get rid of these commercials is to remove Generous Deal.

How Generous Deal gets on your PC?

Generous Deal commercials are transferred with the help of the method that is called bundling. When ‘bundled’ the malware is added to the setup of legitimate application.
