Bikereddint.info Ads
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is bikereddint[.]info?
bikereddint[.]info is a rogue website designed to redirect visitors to other untrustworthy, potentially malicious web pages. Typically, people visit this site inadvertently - they are redirected to it by installed potentially unwanted apps (PUAs). Users generally download and install PUAs unintentionally.
In addition to unwanted redirects, PUAs deliver intrusive ads and collect data relating to users' browsing activities. Note that bikereddint[.]info is very similar to suaningrebtersed[.]info, newschanel[.]biz, feedmedia[.]me, and many other sites.
Generally, PUAs open sites such as bikereddint[.]info in a new browser window or tab - bikereddint[.]info then redirects visitors to about two or three other dubious websites. Note, some might be malicious. It is possible that this rogue site will not cause any redirects but will display deceptive content. This depends on the visitor's location.
Most PUAs collect information relating to users' browsing habits, including users' IP addresses, entered search queries, URLs of visited websites, geolocations, and so on. Typically, the data is shared with third parties (potentially cyber criminals) and misused to generate revenue.
Additionally, many PUAs serve users with unwanted ads (coupons, banners, pop-up ads, surveys, and so on). When displayed, they conceal underlying content of visited websites and, if clicked, redirect users to untrustworthy websites. These ads might also execute scripts that download and install other potentially unwanted apps (potentially malicious).
To avoid having other PUAs (or malicious apps) installed or experiencing problems with privacy and browsing safety, we recommend that you uninstall all dubious, unwanted apps immediately.

There are many PUAs on the Internet, most of which are virtually identical. Typically, developers offer potential users various "useful" tools and features. Unfortunately, most of these apps are designed only to generate revenue for the developers and deliver no any real value for regular users.
Furthermore, installed PUAs pose a direct threat to your privacy and Internet browsing safety.
How did adware install on my computer?
Unwanted apps of this kind are sometimes available for download on their "official' websites, however, most people download/install them by clicking intrusive, deceptive ads or when they are bundled into download/installation set-ups.
Bundling is a deceptive marketing method that developers use to trick people into installing and downloading unwanted software with regular software.
Typically, they achieve this by hiding information regarding additionally-included apps in "Advanced", "Custom" and other similar options/settings of software set-ups (usually freeware). When people download or install software without checking setup options, they often allow unwanted apps to be downloaded/installed.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
You are advised to download software from official websites and avoid using third party downloaders, Peer-to-Peer networks such as torrent clients, eMule, dubious pages and so on. Check "Custom", "Advanced" (and other similar) settings of any download/installation setup and opt-out of bundled, unwanted software.
Do not trust or click intrusive advertisements, especially if they are displayed on dubious pages. If clicked, they open dubious, potentially malicious websites or run scripts that download/install PUAs. If these ads appear or redirects occur, check installed extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins installed on your browser and programs on the computer.
If there are any suspicious, unwanted entries, they should be removed/uninstalled 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.
