Remove apps that open alisalis.com and other web pages

Also Known As: Ads by alisalis.com
Damage level: Medium

What is alisalis[.]com?

alisalis[.]com is one of many rogue websites that load dubious content or redirect visitors to other untrusted web pages. Some examples of other pages similar to alisalis[.]com include go9news[.]biz, speakwithjohns[.]com and exq-timepieces[.]com. Browsers often open websites of this type when potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) are installed on them.

Note that alisalis[.]com and other rogue sites can be opened through other dubious web pages or intrusive ads. In summary, people do not visit them intentionally. PUAs can also gather browsing-related data and serve advertisements.

alisalis[.]com pop-up redirects

When opened, alisalis[.]com opens a number (2-3) of other rogue websites or loads dubious content. The way these pages operate depends on the visitor's geolocation.

Like many other pages of this type, alisalis[.]com tries to deceive visitors into giving permission to show notifications - alisalis[.]co suggests that by clicking the "Allow" button in a pop-up window, visitors are able to continue browsing, however, doing so allows alisalis[.]co to show notifications.

Generally, these sites display notifications that contain deceptive ads, web links to other dubious pages, and so on. As mentioned, browsers can open alisalis[.]co due to installed PUAs, which force-open rogue sites. These apps commonly feed users with intrusive advertisements.

For example, they display coupons, banners, surveys, pop-up ads, and so on. These can open untrusted websites or cause download/installation of other unwanted, potentially malicious programs by running certain scripts. PUAs often collect various user-system information.

For example, IP addresses, entered search queries, addresses of visited pages, geolocations, and other browsing data. Sometimes they record sensitive information as well. Developers sell the information to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue.

Therefore, users who have these apps installed on the browser and/or operating system are exposed to risk of becoming victims of identity theft, problems relating to browsing safety, online privacy, and other issues. Therefore, uninstall all PUAs immediately.

PUAs are advertised as useful, legitimate applications, however, most do not deliver any real value or features. They are designed only to help the developers to generate revenue. Furthermore, users who have apps of this type installed on their browsers and/or computers risk experiencing various problems. Therefore, PUAs should never be downloaded or installed.

How did adware install on my computer?

In some cases, users download and install PUAs through intrusive advertisements that execute certain scripts, however, it usually happens during the download and installation processes of other software. PUAs are distributed by including them into various download/installation set-ups.

This distribution method is called "bundling". Frequently, information about these additionally-included apps is not properly disclosed and is hidden in settings such as "Custom", "Advanced, and others. Many users fail to check and change these settings, thereby allowing rogue applications to be downloaded and installed with the required software.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Third party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks (torrent clients, eMule), unofficial websites, etc. can be used to distribute unwanted, even malicious programs. Therefore, they should not be used to download or install any programs or files. You are advised to download from official websites and through direct links only.

Check all download/installation set-ups that contain "Custom", "Advanced" and other settings. Decline offers to download or install additionally-included, unwanted applications. Intrusive advertisements can open untrusted websites and can also cause download/installation of unwanted applications by running certain scripts.

Therefore, never click these ads. Remove all unwanted, suspicious extensions, add-ons and plug-ins installed on the browser and programs of this kind installed on 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.
