CheapNEnjoy has been promoted as a tool that will help you save money by offering you selected coupons, deals, and various online bargains. However, despite being presented as useful, actually it is nothing more than intrusive adware which might cause you security-related issues. For that reason, CheapNEnjoy is categorized as a potentially unwanted program and it shouldn’t be kept on your PC.

One the adware application enters your system without asking for your permission, it floods your monitor with numerous pop-up advertisements. These pop-ups are really annoying, as they show up every time you attempt to open your web browser. The only way these advertisements to be terminated is by removing CheapNEnjoy from your computer. As the program is classified as malicious, deleting it from the system will help you avoid any problems with your virtual security as well.

CheapNEnjoy uses various methods to infiltrate your machine. It is capable of sneaking past you while still getting your approval for its installation. Most often, the adware tricks you into letting it in by hiding behind a new freeware which you set up on your PC. Besides, CheapNEnjoy can also pose as a false system or program update, or group together with corrupted links, corrupted websites, and spam email attachments. In order to avoid letting such programs on your system, you should be much more attentive when installing new software, or opening untrusted email attachments you’ve received.

As soon as CheapNEnjoy enters your computer, it immediately slows down its performance to a crawl. Additionally, it causes frequent system crashes, and, the worst of all, it will threaten your personal security. This happens because the application’s main purpose is not helping you save money, but making money off of you which confirms that it the program is potentially unwanted.
