Tinhowsinutha.pro POP-UP Ads

What is tinhowsinutha[.]pro?

Similar to fortorsarrabse.info, deloplen.com, checkpost.space, and many others, tinhowsinutha[.]pro is a rogue website that feeds users with dubious content and redirects them to other rogue sites. As with the examples listed, users often visit tinhowsinutha[.]pro inadvertently.

They are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) and intrusive ads displayed on other rogue sites. Note that PUAs typically infiltrate computers without users’ permission. In addition to causing redirects, they deliver intrusive advertisements and record data.

Potentially unwanted applications force-open new browser tabs/windows and redirect users to tinhowsinutha[.]pro. This site then determines the victim's geolocation by checking the IP address. Note that tinhowsinutha[.]pro delivers certain content or redirects users even further. Sometimes it does both - this depends on the visitor's geolocation.

In any case, users might end up encountering malicious content. Thus, redirects to and from tinhowsinutha[.]pro can lead to various system infections. The same applies to intrusive advertisements. Potentially unwanted applications deliver coupons, banners, pop-ups, and various other intrusive advertisements.

These are also likely to redirect to dubious sites. Some even run scripts that stealthily download and install additional unwanted/malicious apps. Therefore, even a single accidental click can result in a computer infection. Note that intrusive ads are delivered using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site.

Therefore, they often conceal underlying content, significantly diminishing the web browsing experience. Another significant downside is information tracking. Potentially unwanted applications record information such as IP addresses, website URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries, and so on.

The information often contains personal data that is shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue in malicious ways. Thus, having data-tracking apps installed on your computer might lead to serious privacy issues, including identity theft. To address this, uninstall all PUAs immediately.

The internet is full of potentially unwanted applications, all of which are very similar. By offering various "useful functions", unwanted applications attempt to give the impression of legitimacy and trick users to install, however, their only purpose is to generate revenue for the developers.

Rather than giving any real value for regular users, PUAs cause unwanted redirects, generate advertisements, and gather information.

How did adware install on my computer?

Some potentially unwanted applications have official download websites, however, most infiltrate computers without permission, since developers proliferate them using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling", and the aforementioned intrusive advertisements. "Bundling" is stealth installation of third party apps with regular (typically free) software.

Developers hide "bundled" apps in various sections (e.g., "Custom/Advanced" settings) of the download/installation processes. Furthermore, many users often rush these procedures and skip steps. In addition, they click advertisements without understanding the possible consequences.

In doing so, they expose their systems to risk of various infections and compromise their privacy.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

To prevent this situation, be very cautious when browsing the Internet and downloading/installing software. Intrusive advertisements usually seem legitimate, however, once clicked, they redirect to gambling, adult dating, pornography, and other similar sites. If you experience these ads/redirects, remove all suspicious applications and browser plug-ins.

It is also very important to study each step of the download/installation processes in the "Custom/Advanced" settings. Opt-out of all additionally-included programs and decline offers to download/install them. Avoid using third party downloaders/installers, since they often include rogue apps.

Software should be downloaded 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.
