How to stop redirects to and from enerativearea.pro

What is enerativearea[.]pro?

enerativearea[.]pro is a rogue site similar to oawhaursaith.com, globallyreinvation.com, findyourpleasure3.life and thousands of others. It presents visitors with dubious content and/or redirects to other untrusted, even malicious web pages.

These websites are seldom accessed intentionally - most users are redirected to them by intrusive ads or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs). These apps do not require express user permission to be installed onto systems. PUAs operate by causing redirects, running intrusive ad campaigns and collecting browsing-related information.

Whether visitors are redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with dubious material is determined by their geolocations - enerativearea[.]pro learns this information by checking users' IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. Additionally, this rogue website uses browser notifications and attempts to lure visitors into allowing them by employing deceptive tactics.

If notifications are enabled, enerativearea[.]pro starts running intrusive advertisement campaigns. The delivered ads are more than just a nuisance, they are also a threat to device/user safety, due to the sites to which they redirect and for their capability to stealthily download/install unwanted content.

When clicked, intrusive ads can redirect to untrusted/rogue, sale-based, deceptive/scam, compromised and malicious pages. Some can even execute scripts to download/install rogue software (e.g. PUAs) without users' consent. These unwanted applications can force-open similarly harmful web pages and/or run intrusive ad campaigns.

Furthermore, most PUAs have data tracking capabilities. They can record browsing activity (URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries typed, etc.) and gather personal information derived from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details). This vulnerable data is often shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) intent on misusing it for profit.

Therefore, the presence of PUAs on devices can result in system infections, serious privacy issues, financial loss and even identity theft. You are strongly advised to eliminate all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately.

PUAs may seem legitimate and useful, and users are often tempted into download/installation with promises of "useful" functionalities, however, the features are rarely operational. If they do work, it is not as advertised. The only purpose of these unwanted apps is to generate revenue for the developers.

Rather than delivering any real value, PUAs cause redirects, deliver intrusive advertisement campaigns and gather private information.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are often downloaded/installed inadvertently with other products. "Bundling" is the term used to define this deceptive marketing technique of pre-packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions.

Rushing download and installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, using pre-set options, etc.) increases the risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content onto the device. Some PUAs have "official" download web pages. Intrusive ads proliferate these applications as well. Once clicked, they can execute scripts to download/install PUAs without users' permission.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

All products should be researched before download/installation. Use only official and verified download channels. Using untrusted sources such as unofficial and free file-hosting sites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks and other third party downloaders is not advised, as they can offer deceptive and bundled content.

When downloading/installing, read the terms, explore all available options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of supplementary apps, tools, features, etc. Intrusive ads usually seem normal and innocuous, however, they can redirect to dubious websites (e.g. gambling, adult-dating, pornography and others).

If you encounter these advertisements/redirects, remove all suspicious applications on the system and browser extensions/plug-ins 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.
