How to prevent glagolinius.com from being opened

What is glagolinius[.]com?

When visited, glagolinius[.]com redirects people to other untrustworthy websites or displays untrustworthy content. Many other websites operate in this way including, for example, clicktube7[.]com, androidrecaptcha[.]info and tatilyerlerim[.]com.

Typically, people do not open these websites intentionally - in most cases, browsers are forced to open them by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are installed. Most PUAs not only open rogue pages, but also deliver intrusive ads and collect browsing data.

Websites such as glagolinius[.]com are usually opened in a new window or tab. Once visited, they redirect visitors to other (two or three) potentially malicious websites, or they load dubious content. These actions depend on the geolocation of the visitor. In any case, it is not safe to visit glagolinius[.]com or similar web pages.

Furthermore, this web page uses a 'clickbait' technique to trick people into allowing it to show notification. To access glagolinius[.]com, visitors must supposedly click the "Allow" button in a pop-up window. Clicking it will give glagolinius[.]com permission to show unwanted notifications, dubious advertisements, and so on.

We advise against allowing these web pages to show any notifications. PUAs that open these sites usually gather various data such as geolocations, addresses of visited websites, entered search queries, IP (Internet Protocol), addresses and other browsing data. Installed PUAs might also collect personal, confidential details.

People behind these apps sell the information to other parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue. Additionally, PUAs can serve ads include pop-up ads, coupons, banners, surveys, etc. These often lead to untrustworthy or even malicious websites.

Some ads might execute scripts to download and install other unwanted apps. Therefore, removal all PUAs immediately, otherwise they might cause problems with privacy, browsing safety, and lead to identity theft.

Typically, PUAs generate revenue for the developers by displaying advertisements, collecting information and forcing users to visit rogue websites. Many are advertised as useful, legitimate apps, however, most do not function as advertised and expose users to risk of various problems.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are commonly installed through intrusive ads that users click intentionally (or accidentally), or when developers distribute them using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling". They use bundling to trick people into download/installation of PUAs by including them as additional offers in software set-ups.

Information about these offers is usually hidden in "Custom", "Advanced", "Manual" and other similar parts of the set-ups. People who download and install software, without checking and changing the available settings, often download and install unwanted software inadvertently.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

To prevent unwanted apps from being downloaded and installed, download all software from official and trustworthy websites and using direct links, especially if the software is free. Other sources and tools such as third party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks (torrent clients, eMule), unofficial websites, and so on, should not be trusted.

Check "Advanced", "Custom" and other similar parts of the download and installation setup and decline offers to download/install included unwanted apps. Intrusive ads often redirect people to untrustworthy websites or cause unwanted downloads/installations.

This applies mostly to ads that are displayed on dubious web pages, however, they might also appear on legitimate sites. Check for any unwanted, unknown or suspicious extensions, plug-ins, or add-ons installed on the browser and remove them. Also remove software of this kind installed on the operating system.

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