How to stop redirects to and from aleailarm.com?

What is aleailarm[.]com?

Sharing many common traits with siveamongsiv.info, gooooodle.com, dstatutorsher.info and many others, aleailarm[.]com is a rogue site. It operates by presenting visitors with unreliable content and generating redirects to other untrustworthy, malicious webpages.

Typically, users enter such websites through redirects caused by intrusive adverts or by PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications), already infiltrated into the device. Following successful installation, PUAs generate redirects, deliver intrusive ads, hijack browsers and track data.

The course of action aleailarm[.]com takes begins with checking visitors' IP addresses in order to learn their geolocations. The latter is key to determining the website's further behavior. Depending on their geolocation, users either get redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with unreliable, possibly harmful content.

This dubious page also uses browser notifications. It attempts to trick users into allowing them, by claiming that to access aleailarm[.]com they must consent to its notifications ("If you are 18+ To access click Allow Notifications). If consented to them - aleailarm[.]com begins running intrusive advertisement campaigns.

Adverts of this kind are considered to be a threat to device/user safety, due to the dangerous sites they redirect and for their ability to stealthily download/install PUAs. Aside from generating redirects, unwanted applications can run intrusive advertisement campaigns as well.

They do so by using various tools to enable third party graphical content; thereby, delivering ads (pop-ups, banners, coupons, etc.) that seriously diminish browsing quality and carry the aforementioned risks. These apps can modify browsers and deny/limit access to their settings.

Most PUAs have data tracking abilities, with information of interest being: browsing and search engine histories, IP addresses, geolocations and users' real-life personal details. This private data can be shared with third parties and potentially end up being used for criminals purposes.

To summarize, PUAs can not only cause browser/system infiltrations and infections, but also lead to severe privacy issues, financial losses and even identity theft. Therefore, it is highly recommended to remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

PUAs are designed to appear legitimate and they lure users into installation with a wide variety of features. Despite how good the offers may sound, the advertised features are rarely operational.

The only purpose of all unwanted content is to generate revenue for its developers; to users it has no genuine value. Instead of delivering on any promises, PUAs force-open untrustworthy and malicious pages, deliver intrusive ads, hijack browsers and collect sensitive data.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs spread through download and installation setups of other software. This deceptive marketing method of pre-packing regular programs with unwanted or malicious content is called "bundling".

Rushed download/installation processes (e.g. skimmed or ignored terms, skipped steps and sections, used pre-set options, etc.) - endanger devices with potential system infiltrations and infections. Select PUAs have "official" download webpages. Once clicked on, intrusive adverts can execute scripts to download/install such apps, without user permission.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is recommended to always research content to verify its legitimacy, before downloading/installing it. All downloads should be done from official and verified download sources. It is ill-advised to use P2P sharing networks (BitTorrent, eMule, Gnutella, etc.), unofficial and free file-hosting sites, third party downloaders and similar sources - as they are considered to be untrustworthy.

Download and installation processes should be approached with care. That entails reading terms, exploring possible options, using the "Custom/Advanced" settings and declining to download/install additional apps, tools, functions and so on. Intrusive ads usually look legitimate, ordinary and harmless.

However, when they are clicked - they redirect to various questionable websites, such as gambling, pornography, adult-dating and others.

Should users experience advertisements/redirects of this type, it is strongly advised to inspect the device and remove al suspect applications and/or browser extensions/plug-ins without delay. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
