Sandsitedrhec.club POP-UP Redirect

What is sandsitedrhec.club?

sandsitedrhec.club is virtually identical to many other rogue websites of this type such as relstemportsin.club, fireaction.fun, and click-on-this.today. When visiting this website, users are redirected to other, untrustworthy (potentially, malicious) sites.

Furthermore, they are often forced to visit sandsitedrhec.club by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are installed on their systems. Most users are tricked into installing these apps unwillingly. Once installed, PUAs feed them with various intrusive ads and record browsing-related information.

PUAs force users to continually visit sandsitedrhec.club by opening the site in new browser windows or tabs. Depending on the user's location, this website displays deceptive content or causes additional (about 2-3) redirects to other dubious, potentially malicious websites, some of which might contain malicious content.

Therefore, redirects to and from sandsitedrhec.club can result in computer infections with malicious programs. Furthermore, PUAs also feed users with intrusive ads (usually coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, and similar). When clicked, they can lead to deceptive, potentially malicious or untrustworthy websites.

Furthermore, these ads can be very annoying, since they are displayed using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, they conceal underlying content of visited websites, thereby affecting the overall browsing experience. These ads can also execute scripts designed to download/install other unwanted apps.

Another negative effect of having PUAs installed is that often they track/record information such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, geo-locations, search queries, URLs of visited websites, and other browsing-related information. Personal, sensitive data might also be collected.

Developers share the data with various third parties (including cyber criminalsl) who misuse these details to generate revenue. Therefore, the presence of PUAs installed on your computer or browser might cause problems relating to browsing safety, privacy, and even identity theft.

PUAs developers promote these apps as being legitimate and capable of providing useful tools or features. In fact, these promotions are merely attempts to trick people into downloading and installing PUAs. When installed and run, they deliver none of the functionality promised.

On the contrary, most generate revenue for their developers by feeding users with intrusive ads, causing unwanted redirects, and collecting data.

How did adware install on my computer?

Some potentially unwanted apps can be downloaded from their official websites, however, most users install them inadvertently through intrusive advertisements or when they are bundled with other, usually free, software. "Bundling" is a deceptive marketing method used to trick users into installing unwanted apps together with other software.

This is often achieved by hiding them in "Custom", "Advanced" and other options/settings of the download/installation set-ups. Developers avoid disclosing information about the inclusion of PUAs within set-ups. They are aware that many users skip installation steps without checking the settings - this is how they often succeed in tricking them into installing unwanted apps.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download software using official and trustworthy sources, especially if it is freeware. Do not use third party software downloaders, Peer-to-Peer networks such as torrent clients and other such tools.

Analyze each download or installation step - study all available options and settings (such as "Custom", "Advanced" etc.), checkboxes, and opt-out of offers to install or download unwanted software. Avoid clicking on intrusive ads, since they usually redirect users to dubious/malicious websites such as gambling, pornography, adult dating, and others.

If you experience redirects to these websites, check your browser plug-ins, extensions, and add-ons. Also check the list of installed programs on your computer. In both cases, remove suspicious entries. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
