Ticeroftertal.info POP-UP Ads

What is ticeroftertal[.]info?

ticeroftertal[.]info is a rogue website that has the same purpose as pushnews[.]online, txtnews[.]online, watch-this[.]live, and many other websites of this type.

Once visited, it redirects users to websites that cannot be trusted or displays dubious content. Typically, people are forced to visit these websites when they have potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their browsers. PUAs often deliver intrusive ads and record information.

Generally, unwanted apps open rogue websites in new browser windows or tabs. Once opened/visited, ticeroftertal[.]info displays dubious content or opens about two or three other untrustworthy web pages. Its behaviour depends on the visitor's geolocation. Note that some of the opened pages might contain malicious content. Many PUAs also gather various data.

When installed, they continually collect IP addresses, geolocations, entered search queries, URLs of visited websites, and other information relating to users' browsing activities. Some might also gather personal details. People who develop these apps share the data with partners or other third parties who misuse it to generate revenue.

Some of these third parties could be cyber criminals. Furthermore, some PUAs that serve users with intrusive advertisements such as coupons, banners, pop-up ads, surveys, and other annoying ads. If clicked, they open potentially malicious pages or execute scripts designed to download/install more unwanted apps.

Having PUAs installed might lead to various problems relating to browsing safety, online privacy or other serious issues such as identity theft. These apps are usually presented as legitimate and useful, however, such promotions are merely attempts to trick people into installing/using PUAs.

In fact, PUAs deliver none of the offered/promoted features, tools, or any other benefits. They are designed only to generate revenue for the criminals who developed them. We recommend that you uninstall all apps of this type immediately.

How did adware install on my computer?

Frequently, people download and install unwanted apps of this kind through intrusive advertisements or when they are bundled with other, usually free, software. "Bundling" is a deceptive marketing method that developers use to trick users into downloading/installing PUAs by hiding them in "Custom", "Advanced", and other settings of software set-ups.

They avoid disclosing information about the inclusion of unwanted apps into download/installation set-ups. When people leave the aforementioned settings unchecked/unchanged, they inadvertently give permission for PUAs to be downloaded and installed.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download all software using official/trustworthy sources and not third party software downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks (torrent clients, eMule) and other similar channels. Additionally, do not to skip software setup steps without checking all "Custom"/"Advanced" (and other similar) settings and dismissing offers to download and install bundled unwanted apps.

Intrusive ads are often designed to redirect people who click them to pages relating to gambling, pornography, adult dating, and other sites that cannot be trusted.

This is especially the case if the ads are presented on dubious web pages. If your experience regular ads or redirects, check installed programs on the operating system and extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins on the browser. Remove all unwanted and suspicious entries 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.
