Undrabbifor.info POP-UP Redirect

Also Known As: undrabbifor.info pop-up
Type: Adware
Damage level: Medium

What is undrabbifor.info?

undrabbifor.info is a rogue website designed to redirect users to other compromised sites and deliver dubious content. It is very similar to tontritrattof.infomoocauby.comredrentalservice.com, and many others. Users typically visit this website inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive advertisements displayed on other rogue sites.

PUAs are notorious for infiltrating computers without permission. As well as causing redirects, they usually deliver intrusive advertisements and gather information.

undrabbifor.info pop-up redirects

PUAs force-open new browser tabs/windows and redirect users to undrabbifor.information. This website's behavior depends on the victim's geo-location, which is determined by checking the IP address. Note that undrabbifor.information redirects users to other (potentially, malicious) websites or delivers intrusive advertisements. Users might then encounter malicious content.

Thus, visiting undrabbifor.information can lead to various system infections. PUAs deploy coupon, banner, pop-up, and other similar intrusive advertisements. These ads might also redirect to malicious websites and run scripts designed to download various unwanted applications. Therefore, clicking them can also lead to various system infections.

Intrusive ads are delivered using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, ads often conceal underlying website content, thereby significantly diminishing the browsing experience. Unwanted applications record information relating to browsing activity.

Typically, these apps record rather general information (e.g., IP addresses, search queries URLs visited, pages viewed, etc.). In some cases, however, they record more personal information. Furthermore, developers share the information with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who generate revenue by misusing this data.

Thus, the presence of data-tracking apps can lead to privacy issues or even identity theft. All potentially unwanted applications must be eliminated immediately.

All potentially unwanted applications are very similar. By offering "useful features", they attempt to give the impression of legitimacy (and often succeed) and trick users to install. In fact, few PUAs provide the functions promised.

The real purpose of PUAs is to help developers generate revenue. Therefore, most cause unwanted redirects, gather information, and deliver intrusive ads.

How did adware install on my computer?

Some PUAs have official download websites, however, most are proliferated using intrusive advertisements and a deceptive marketing method called "bundling" (stealth installation of third party applications together with regular software). Developers know that users often rush download/installation processes and skip steps.

Therefore, "bundled" apps are hidden within "Custom/Advanced" settings (or other sections) of the download/installation processes. Furthermore, users who click advertisements and skip download/installation steps install PUAs inadvertently.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

The main reasons for computer infections are poor knowledge and careless behavior. The key to computer safety is caution. Therefore, to prevent this situation be very cautious when browsing the internet and downloading/installing software. Intrusive advertisements typically seem legitimate.

Once clicked, however, they redirect to dubious websites (gambling, pornography, adult dating, and similar). If you encounter these redirects, remove all suspicious applications and browser plug-ins immediately. Furthermore, avoid using third party downloaders/installers, since they often include rogue applications.

Download your software from official sources only, using direct download links. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
