Mysuperapps.online POP-UP Redirect

Also Known As: mysuperapps.online pop-up
Type: Adware
Damage level: Medium

What is mysuperapps.online?

mysuperapps.online is one of many rogue websites available (virtually identical to newsupdateunit.info, pog0da.com, adx1.com, etc.) that causes redirects to other untrustworthy (potentially malicious) sites. Users generally arrive at mysuperapps.online unintentionally. Potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) force redirects to it. PUAs are installed without users' consent, cause redirects, gather data, and deliver ads.

mysuperapps.online pop-up

Following infiltration, potentially unwanted applications affect browsers by continually opening new windows/tabs and redirecting users to mysuperapps.online. This rogue website then triggers even more (usually two or three) redirects to other potentially malicious/untrustworthy sites, at least one of which will be malicious.

Therefore, computers might be infiltrated by high-risk infections. Furthermore, most PUAs gather user-system information (such as geo-locations, keystrokes, search queries, URLs of visited websites, IP addresses, etc.) and then share it with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who later misuse the data to generate revenue.

Furthermore, some of the data might contain personal or sensitive details that, if misused by third parties (or PUAs developers), might cause numerous privacy/browsing safety problems, or even and identity theft. Another downside of PUAs is intrusive ads.

PUAs deliver coupons, banners, pop-ups, surveys and other similar ads that are displayed using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site and conceal underlying content. When clicked, they often redirect users to untrustworthy (potentially malicious) websites or even run scripts that download and install other PUAs.

Some PUAs are capable of running various background tasks (such as cryptocurrency mining), and thus users might experience reduced computer performance. For these reasons, we recommend that you remove all PUAs immediately.

PUAs might have different behavior, but most are virtually identical and have just one purpose: to generate revenue by collecting information, delivering intrusive ads, and causing unwanted redirects. PUAs developers often trick users into downloading them by offering "useful" tools or features, however, few deliver the functionality promised or give any real value for regular users.

How did adware install on my computer?

Potentially unwanted applications can often be found on their official websites and downloaded from there, but most users install them unintentionally through clicked intrusive ads or when installing other third party software. Software developers often use the "bundling" method to trick users into installing PUAs.

Bundling is deceptive marketing used to install PUAs together with regular software. These installations are not properly disclosed, since developers often hide bundled applications in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar options (settings) of the installation processes.

By skipping installation steps, many users install their software together with potentially programs. Furthermore, clicking intrusive ads can also cause these problems.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download software using official, trustworthy sources and direct links only. Do not use third party downloaders, torrents or other third party downloaders. Carefully analyze each dialog window of each installation process. Check "Custom", "Advanced" and other options, opt-out of unwanted software/offers, and only then finish the installation.

Avoid clicking intrusive ads even if they seem legitimate - some intrusive ads may seem legitimate, however, once clicked, they redirect to untrustworthy websites (gambling, pornography, adult dating, and so on).

If you notice these ads or are redirected to suspicious websites, check installed extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins on your browser and uninstall dubious/unknown applications immediately. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
