Trolatunt is an adware program that opens non-stop pop-ups with ads while you’re surfing the web. These ads, which come in the form of banners or inserts, contain lots of savings coupons whose reliability is more or less questionable. In fact, Trolatunt presents itself as a program that displays targeted mega-savings coupons for the web pages that you’re on at that moment. That might seem appealing, but Trolatunt can be very intrusive and will display advertisements whether you want them or not.
Trolatunt‘s real aim is to create revenue for its designers. It generates traffic, gathers information for pretty dubious third-parties, and opens ads and links on your browser. Once Trolatunt is installed, it will display ad messages and pop-up windows, or it will insert blue or green links right inside the text of the sites you visit. This kind of parasitic program promotes the installation of several rather suspicious tools such as toolbars, computer optimization software, etc., all so that the adware’s designers can cash in even more. Let’s take a look at how to remove it once and for all.
