Remove Savings Slider (Uninstall Guide)

“Savings Slider” is an adware program that displays offers coupons, advertisements and sponsored links via a pop-up box on Ebay, Amazon, Walmart and other shopping websites that you are visiting.
These advertisements will be shown as boxes containing various coupons that are available or as underlined keywords, which when clicked will display an advertisement that states it is brought to you by Savings Slider.

Savings Slider is an extension for Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome that is typically added when you install another free software (video recording/streaming, download-managers or PDF creators) that had bundled into their installation this adware program. When you install these free programs, they will also install Savings Slider as well. Some of the programs that are known to bundle Tidy Network include 1ClickDownload, Yontoo and FBPhotoZoom.

Once installed, whenever you will browse Expedia, Best Buy, Facebook or any other similar websites, Savings Slider will show in the right top part of your browser, a box containing related keyword suggestions, ads and sponsored links.

You should always pay attention when installing software because often, a software installer includes optional installs, such as this Savings Slider browser hijacker. Be very careful what you agree to install.
Always opt for the custom installation and deselect anything that is not familiar, especially optional software that you never wanted to download and install in the first place. It goes without saying that you should not install software that you don’t trust.
