Do not trust apps or click ads that are promoted through dubious websites such as free3dadultgames[.]com.
They can lead to computer infections or other unwanted downloads, malicious web pages, and so on. Typically, people who develop websites of this type use them to generate revenue for other parties. People who use them simply experience problems and do not benefit in any way.
How did adware install on my computer?
These unwanted apps can sometimes be downloaded from their official websites, however, in most cases, people install them through the intrusive ads or when developers bundle them into download/installation set-ups of other software. They use this method to trick people into downloading and installing unwanted applications with other regular software.
They achieve this by hiding information relating to these unwanted apps in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar parts of the installation or download set-ups. Skipping installation/download steps and leaving setup settings unchecked often leads to inadvertent installation of potentially unwanted applications. Clicking intrusive ads can cause an identical situation.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Study each download/installation process (setup) and opt-out of additionally-included applications. Decline offers to download or install PUAs. You are advised to avoid using third party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks and other such tools to download or install programs or files.
They should be downloaded from trustworthy, official websites and via direct download links only. Be careful with intrusive ads, especially if they are displayed on untrustworthy web pages. They commonly redirect to deceptive, dubious websites associated with gambling, adult dating, pornography, and so on.
If you experience these ads or redirects regularly, check the browser for any unwanted, unknown apps such as extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins and remove them immediately.
The same applies to programs of this kind installed on the computer. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
