What is SmartOfferDisplay?

Smart Offer Display is an adware browser extension and toolbar that is designed for the purpose of displaying unwanted ads, software for PUP (potentially unwanted programs) and other offers. Once installed the application integrates inside the browser through multiple means and will deliver ads including but not limited to banner ads, text-links, coupons and other offers both by injecting them in the user's web browser as well as displaying popups outside of the browser. In some cases the ad will have attribution but in most cases it will not and will confuse the user should malvaertisng be the source.

From Lollipop: "SMART OFFER DISPLAY will display contextualized products, ads and offers based on the user’s Internet browsing, and/or together with a product price comparison feature, as well as "Daily Deals" in which the user will be offered the best deals available daily based on his/her geographic location. The offers you are being presented with, are targeted and of similar category to the website you were currently visiting."
