Stop redirects to and from newsapp.biz

What is newsapp[.]biz?

newsapp[.]biz is one of many rogue websites. This particular site shares similarities with lurunews.biz, anwap-download.club, and trementrecially.pro.

It generates redirects to other untrustworthy/malicious sites and presents visitors with dubious content. Few users access this site intentionally - most are redirected by intrusive advertisements or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already present on devices. These apps do not need express user permission to infiltrate devices.

The geolocation is key to determining the actions of newsapp[.]biz. It learns this data by checking visitors' IP addresses. Depending on the geolocations, the site redirects users elsewhere and/or delivers dubious content.

Note that newsapp[.]biz employs browser notifications. It hides the consent option to these behind 'clickbait' (e.g. "Click here to verify, that you are not a robot", "Tap 'Allow' to watch newest videos/TV/Movies", "Your page is loading, press 'Allow' to continue", etc.).

If consent is given, newsapp[.]biz begins running intrusive ad campaigns. These ads are more than just a nuisance - they are also a safety threat. Once clicked, they cause redirects to sale-based, untrustworthy, compromised and even malicious websites. Some can execute scripts designed to download/install PUAs.

Unwanted applications can also generate redirects and run ad campaigns. By implementing a wide variety of tools, they enable placement of third party graphical content on any site, thereby deploying intrusive ads (pop-ups, banners, surveys, coupons, etc.).

This significantly diminishes the browsing experience by limiting browsing speed and web page visibility. Some PUAs also have data tracking capabilities that they use to record users' browsing habits. By monitoring browsing activity (browsing and search engine histories), they collect personal information (IP addresses, geolocations, and other details).

This private data is then shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) seeking to misuse it for financial gain. In summary, unwanted apps can cause system infiltration and infections, and lead to serious privacy issues, financial loss, and even identity theft. To ensure device and user safety, remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/pug-ins without delay.

PUAs share certain similarities, and some are even identical. They may seem legitimate and offer "useful" and "beneficial" features.

Despite how good these offers may sound, the features rarely work as advertised, if they are operational at all. The only purpose of all unwanted software/content is to generate revenue for the developers, whilst regular users receive no value. PUAs simply cause redirects, run intrusive ad campaigns, hijack browsers, and gather sensitive data.

How did adware install on my computer?

The most common way PUAs proliferate is via the download/install set-ups of other programs. This deceptive marketing tactic of pre-packing regular software with unwanted or malicious content is called "bundling". Rushing download/installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps, using pre-set options, etc.) increases the risk of potential system infiltration and infections.

Some PUAs have "official" download web pages on which they are often endorsed as "free" and "useful" software. Intrusive ads are also known to proliferate these applications. When clicked, however, they can execute scripts to download/install PUAs, without users' permission.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Research your content to verify its legitimacy, before downloading/installing. Use only official and verified download sources. Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, unofficial and free file-hosting sites, third party downloaders and similar channels are untrusted, and should not be used.

Download/Installation processes should be treated with caution. Read the terms, study possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and decline download/installation of additional apps, tools, features, etc.

Intrusive ads usually seem normal and innocuous, however, they can redirect to dubious web pages (e.g. pornography, adult-dating, gambling, and others). If you experience these ads/redirects, inspect the system and immediately remove all suspect applications and/or browser extensions/plug-ins.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?

Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.

Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
