How to remove browser redirects to verytearfoilew.info
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is verytearfoilew[.]info?
verytearfoilew[.]info is a rogue website that shares similarities with bodlift.com, markably.info, gatonsenropha.info, and many others. Note that verytearfoilew[.]info redirects users to other rogue websites and presents dubious content.
Users generally arrive at this site inadvertently - they are redirected after clicking intrusive advertisements or when they have potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their systems. Research shows that PUAs often infiltrate computers without permission. They also cause unwanted redirects, monitor browsing activity, and feed users with intrusive advertisements.
Following infiltration, the PUAs start opening new browser tabs or windows and redirecting users to verytearfoilew[.]info, which then checks the visitor's Internet Protocol (IP) address to determine the geolocation. This is to ascertain whether the user should be presented with certain content or redirected elsewhere (or both).
Therefore, users might end up encountering malicious content. Redirects to and from verytearfoilew[.]info can lead to system infections. PUAs also deliver coupons, banners, pop-ups, and other similar advertisements. These often redirect to dubious websites and some execute scripts designed to download/install other unwanted/malicious apps.
Thus, even a single accidental click might result in high-risk computer infections. Note that intrusive advertisements are delivered using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, they often conceal underlying content, significantly diminishing the browsing experience. Potentially unwanted applications are also notorious for data tracking.
They usually gather IP addresses, website URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries, and other similar information. The data is shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who generate revenue by misusing private information. Therefore, data tracking can lead to serious privacy issues or even identity theft. We strongly recommend that you eliminate all PUAs immediately.

There are thousands of PUAs that share many similarities. They often deliver fake promises to enable certain 'features', however, these claims are merely attempts to give the impression of legitimacy. The only purpose of PUAs is to generate revenue for the developers.
They deliver no real value for regular users. Most are designed to cause unwanted redirects, deliver intrusive advertisements, and gather information relating to browsing activity.
How did adware install on my computer?
Potentially unwanted applications usually infiltrate computers without users' consent, since most are promoted using intrusive advertising and "bundling" methods. "Bundling" is essentially stealth installation of third party applications together with regular software. Developers are aware that many users rush download/installation processes and skip steps.
Therefore, "bundled" applications are hidden behind "Custom/Advanced" settings (or other sections) of the download/installation processes. By rushing and skipping download/installation steps and clicking on advertisements, many users 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. Carefully analyze each window of the download/installation dialogs using the "Custom" or "Advanced" settings. Opt-out of all additionally-included programs and decline offers to download/install them.
Avoid using third party downloaders/installers, since these tools often include rogue apps (developers monetize them using the "bundling" method). Software should be downloaded from official sources only, using direct download links. Furthermore, bear in mind that intrusive advertisements usually seem legitimate.
Once clicked, however, they redirect to dubious websites (gambling, adult dating, pornography, and similar). If you encounter these ads/redirects frequently, eliminate all dubious applications/browser plug-ins 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.
