Click.new-posts.support POP-UP Redirect
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is click.new-posts.support?
click.new-posts.support is a rogue site similar to adxfactory.com, click-now-on-this.online, and many others. The site redirects users to various other untrustworthy (potentially, malicious websites).
Research shows that many visitors arrive at click.new-posts.support inadvertently - they are redirected by intrusive ads (displayed by other rogue sites) or potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). Be aware that potentially unwanted applications typically infiltrate systems without consent.
As well as causing redirects, they deliver intrusive advertisements and record sensitive information.
Potentially unwanted applications open new browser tabs/windows and redirect users to click.new-posts.support. After visiting this site, users are immediately redirected to several (typically two or three) websites (chain redirects). Ultimately, users might be forced to visit sites that contain malicious content.
Therefore, the aforementioned redirects might lead to high-risk computer infections. Potentially unwanted applications also deliver intrusive advertisements that can also redirect to malicious sites and run scripts that download/install malware. Therefore, even a single click might result in system infection.
Note that intrusive ads are delivered using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, they are likely to conceal underlying content, significantly diminishing the browsing experience. PUAs are also known to record user-system information relating to browsing activity.
Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, geographic locations, website URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries, and other collected information often includes personal information that it is shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue.
Therefore, the presence of potentially unwanted applications can lead to serious privacy issues or even identity theft. You are strongly advised to eliminate all PUAs immediately.

| Threat Type | Adware, Unwanted ads, Pop-up Virus |

There are hundreds of PUAs that share many similarities. Most "useful features", but they are designed only to generate revenue for the developers and deliver no real value for regular users.
Potentially unwanted applications cause unwanted redirects, deliver ads, and gather information, thereby posing a direct threat to your privacy and browsing safety. Uninstall them immediately.
How did adware install on my computer?
Some potentially unwanted applications have official download websites, however, due to the lack of knowledge and careless behavior of many users, these programs are likely to infiltrate systems without permission. Developers often promote PUAs using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling", and the aforementioned intrusive advertisements.
"Bundling" is essentially stealth installation of potentially unwanted applications together with regular software/apps. Developers hide "bundled" apps within "Custom/Advanced" settings (or other sections) of the download/installation processes.
Furthermore, many users often rush download/installation processes, skip steps, and click various advertisements. This behavior often leads to inadvertent installation of potentially unwanted applications.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Be very cautious when browsing the Internet and downloading/installing software. Bear in mind that developers invest many resources into intrusive ad design, thereby making them seem legitimate. Once clicked, however, they redirect to dubious websites, such as gambling, adult dating, pornography, etc.
If you encounter these advertisements, immediately remove all dubious applications and browser plug-ins. Furthermore, select "Custom/Advanced" settings and carefully analyze each window of the download/installation dialogs. During the process, opt-out additionally-included applications and decline offers to download/install them.
The main reasons for computer infections are lack of knowledge and careless behavior - the key to safety is caution. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
