How to stop redirects to nlighttomayorw.info

What is nlighttomayorw[.]info?

nlighttomayorw[.]info is a rogue website. Like many other web pages of this type (such as onestream[.]best, dolohen[.]com, trynotify[.]com, etc.), it redirects visitors to various other untrustworthy websites and might also display dubious content.

In most cases, these sites are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on browsers and/or computers (i.e., few people visit them willingly). PUAs usually collect browsing data and display various advertisements.

Generally, PUAs open rogue web pages in a new browser window or tab. Once nlighttomayorw[.]info is opened, it loads untrustworthy content or causes redirects to about two or three other dubious, potentially malicious sites. The actions of nlighttomayorw[.]info depend on the visitor's geolocation.

This web page encourages visitors to give permission to show notifications by clicking the "Allow" button, which apparently allows visitors to continue browsing the site. If clicked, however, it gives permission for nlighttomayorw[.]info to show unwanted content such as ads that lead to dubious web pages, and so on.

These apps often display intrusive ads - these are usually deceptive and appear in the form of pop-ups, banners, surveys, coupons, and so on. If clicked, they lead to dubious, potentially malicious pages and sometimes execute scripts that download and/or install unwanted programs (possibly malware).

PUAs can also be designed to collect various details including Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, addresses of visited pages, entered search queries, geolocations, and other details of this kind. Some PUAs record personal information. Developers sell the data to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue.

PUAs might lead to various problems including, for example, issues with browsing safety, privacy, or even identity theft. For these reasons, never trust apps of this type. If PUAs are installed on your system, remove them immediately.

Typically, unwanted apps generate revenue for the developers by collecting information, feeding users with intrusive ads and causing unwanted redirects to dubious, potentially malicious websites. Instead of operating as the developers advertise, PUAs simply cause problems. In summary, PUAs and web pages such as newsmode[.]me should never be trusted.

How did adware install on my computer?

Most peoples download and install apps of this type inadvertently. In some cases, PUAs can be downloaded and installed through clicked intrusive ads, however, it generally happens via the download/installation set-ups of other software. I.e., when PUAs are included into the set-ups and presented as additional offers.

This distribution method is called "bundling". Typically, information about these additional apps is not properly disclosed and hidden in settings such as "Custom", "Advanced", and so on. Furthermore, many people fail to check the settings and leave them unchanged. In this way, they agree by default with offers to download and install PUAs with their regular software.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Do not download programs (especially if they are free) from unofficial, dubious web pages, through Peer-to-Peer networks (torrent clients, eMule), third party downloaders, and so on. Additionally, software should not be installed using third party installers.

The safest way to download software is using official websites and direct download links. Check all settings of the download/installation setups and dismiss offers to download or install additionally-included apps. Avoid clicking intrusive ads, especially if they are displayed on dubious web pages.

Clicking them often results in being redirected to untrustworthy sites or unwanted downloads and installations. Check for any suspicious, unwanted apps (extensions, add-ons, plug-ins) installed on the browser and programs of this kind on the computer. Remove unwanted entries 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.
