How to stop daystream.club from being opened by browsers

Also Known As: Ads by daystream.club
Damage level: Medium

What is daystream[.]club?

daystream[.]club is one of many rogue web pages that displays dubious content or redirect visitors to other untrusted websites. Examples of other websites similar to daystream[.]club include trendyarticle[.]com, newscoder7[.]com, and twok[.]pro.

Browsers usually open these sites due to installed potentially unwanted apps (PUAs). I.e., people do not often visit these web pages intentionally. Furthermore, PUAs usually gather browsing-related data and/or serve various advertisements.

daystream[.]club pop-up redirects

PUAs force browsers to regularly open websites such as daystream[.]club in new tabs or windows. When opened, the pages open more (about two or three) untrusted websites or display dubious content. The way the web page operates depends on visitors' geolocations.

Note that daystream[.]club can lead to potentially malicious websites. It also attempts to trick visitors into giving permission to show notifications by suggesting that clicking the "Allow" button will play a video. In fact, this is just one of many 'clickbait' techniques that these websites use.

When clicked, the button allows the web pages to show notifications, which usually contain deceptive ads, links to other rogue pages and other dubious content. Furthermore, most PUAs operate as information tracking tools.

They collect information relating to users' browsing activity including entered search queries, IP addresses, geolocations, URLs of visited websites, and so on. Some PUAs target private, sensitive details. Developers misuse the data by selling it to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals).

This can lead to problems relating to privacy, browsing safety, and even identity theft. PUAs can also deliver various ads in the form of coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, and so on. People who click them arrive at various rogue websites or allow them to execute scripts that download and/or install unwanted software.

PUAs are often advertised as useful, legitimate applications that supposedly deliver various features, however, most are useless and simply cause problems. They record data, display ads, open rogue, and do not deliver any real value. Therefore, do not trust or download/install this software.

How did adware install on my computer?

In most cases PUAs are distributed by including them into the download/installation set-ups of other (mainly free) software. This distribution method is known as "bundling". Typically, offers to download and/or install additionally-included apps can be found in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings of the download and/or installation set-ups.

Many people fail to check and change these settings, thereby allowing included apps to be downloaded and installed with regular programs. Unwanted software can also infiltrate when people click deceptive ads that execute certain scripts.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Do not use third party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks such as torrent clients, eMule, unofficial pages, etc. to download or install software. Use official websites and direct links only. Check all download and installation set-ups for "Custom", "Advanced", "Manual" and other similar settings.

These often mention offers to download or install additional, potentially unwanted software. To prevent unwanted downloads and installations, do not click intrusive ads, especially those that are displayed on unofficial, dubious web pages. These can redirect to potentially malicious pages or download/install unwanted apps.

Remove any unwanted, suspicious extensions, plug-ins and add-ons already installed on the browser. Also remove any programs of this kind from the operating system 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.

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.
