Arberittertwa.info POP-UP Redirect

What is arberittertwa[.]info?

arberittertwa[.]info is similar to many other web pages of this type such as vercallactont[.]com, butitereventwil[.]info, and refrebrepheon[.]info. This is a rogue website that causes redirects to other untrustworthy sites.

People do not usually visit arberittertwa[.]info intentionally - the site is opened by potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) that are installed on computers or browsers. PUAs often infiltrate systems without users' knowledge (they install them inadvertently). In addition to unwanted redirects, most PUAs feed users with advertisements and gather data relating to browsing activity.

Typically, PUAs open rogue websites in new browser windows or tabs. Once visited, arberittertwa[.]info opens two or three other, dubious (or even malicious) websites. Alternatively, it displays dubious content. These actions depends on the visitor's geolocation. Being forced to visit dubious pages might result in unwanted installations and computer infections.

Furthermore, PUAs usually gather browsing-related data such as IP addresses, geolocations, entered search queries, URLs of visited websites, and so on. They might also record personal/sensitive information. Furthermore, PUA developers usually share the data with other parties, some of whom might be cyber criminals.

These third parties can misuse the information to generate revenue. PUAs often serve users with advertisements such as coupons, banners, surveys, pop-up ads, and so on. The ads may seem tempting, however, once clicked, they cause redirects to dubious websites. Some might contain malicious content and infect computers.

Many deceptive ads run scripts that leas to download and installation of PUAs when clicked. Others might be malicious. To avoid privacy issues, problems with browsing safety, and identity theft, we recommend that you uninstall all PUAs immediately.

PUAs are promoted as useful apps, however, in most cases they provide no features/tools and simply generate revenue for the developers by causing unwanted redirects, displaying ads, and collecting data. PUAs cause problems and offer no real value for regular users.

How did adware install on my computer?

In some cases, potentially unwanted applications can be downloaded from their websites, however, they are generally installed unintentionally through clicked intrusive advertisements or when they are included (bundled) into other software set-ups.

Bundling is a deceptive marketing method that developers use to trick people into installing PUAs with programs that they wish to download/install. To achieve this, developers hide information regarding the bundling of PUAs in "Custom", "Advanced" or other similar options of software set-ups.

They do not disclose this information properly. Furthermore, many users rush downloads without checking the settings, or they click intrusive ads. In this way, they end up having potentially unwanted apps installed on their browsers and computers.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Choose trustworthy sources to download software, especially freeware. The safest ways to download software is using official websites and direct download links. Peer-to-Peer networks, dubious websites, third party downloaders and other sources of this kind should not be used. Install software properly.

Inspect software set-ups by checking all included "Advanced", "Custom" and other similar parts and opt-out of offers to download or install additional, unwanted programs. Do not click intrusive ads, especially those displayed on dubious websites.

If, however, these ads appear on any visited website and unwanted redirects occur regularly, check for unwanted apps installed on the browser and programs on the computer. Remove all unwanted/unknown extensions, plug-ins, and extensions and uninstall all unwanted programs 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.
