WhenUSearch Bundle
Overview
WhenUSearch Bundle open pop-up windows and selects which ads and offers to display to individual users based on several factors,
including: URLs associated with web pages visited by the user, search terms typed by
the user into search engines and into the WhenUSearch Toolbar, HTML content of the
web pages viewed by the user and the local zip code of the user:
From the developer:
"The Save! software bundle from WhenU.com includes both Save! and the WhenUSearch Toolbar.
Save! shows you relevant coupon offers, contextual information and services as you surf the Web. Save! attempts to display offers at the moment when they are most relevant to you. Offers and information are displayed in the form of interstitials ("pop-up ads") and various other ad formats.
The WhenUSeach Toolbar brings relevant information, search results, and coupons to your desktop, or browser, at all times. The WhenUSearch Toolbar displays this information in the form of rotating text links accessible from within the application.
The Save! and WhenUSearch Toolbar software selects which ads and offers to display to individual users based on several factors, including: URLs associated with web pages visited by the user, search terms typed by the user into search engines and into the WhenUSearch Toolbar, HTML content of the web pages viewed by the user and the local zip code of the user. Save! and WhenUSearch Toolbar ads and offers are delivered in a separate, independent window or application controlled by WhenU.com, are not endorsed or affiliated with anyone other than WhenU.com and may in fact be competitive with some of the sites visited by the user while online.
Save! software enables users to receive advertising-supported versions of many popular software applications for free. Use of Save! is required to continue using these applications for free. As a result, Save! cannot be uninstalled from your computer's Control Panel independently. In order to completely remove Save! from your computer, you must uninstall all of the Save!-supported software from your computer. Once you do so, your Save! software will automatically be uninstalled as well."
