How to remove redirects to and from c-emoney.com

What is c-emoney[.]com?

c-emoney[.]com is an untrusted web page, which is practically identical to click-to-watch.live, esmo.pro, keysdigita.com  and countless others. This site presents visitors with dubious content and/or redirects them to other rogue, possibly malicious websites.

Few users access c-emoney[.]com or similar sites intentionally - most are redirected to them by intrusive advertisements or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs). These apps do not need express user permission to infiltrate systems. PUAs operate by causing redirects, running intrusive ad campaigns, and collect browsing-related data.

The geolocation determines c-emoney[.]com behavior. The site learns this information by checking visitors' IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. Whether users are redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with dubious material depends on the geolocation.

Additionally, this web page attempts to trick visitors into enabling browser notifications using 'clickbait' ("Press Allow to watch the video"). If notifications are enabled, c-emoney[.]com starts delivering intrusive advertisement campaigns. As well as being a significant nuisance, these ads are also a threat.

When clicked, the ads redirect to sale-based, untrusted/rogue, compromised, deceptive/scam and malicious websites. When clicked, some intrusive advertisements can even stealthily download/install rogue software (e.g. PUAs). These unwanted applications can also force-open similarly hazardous 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 sensitive information derived from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details).

The collected data often contains personally identifiable information that developers monetize by sharing with and/or selling to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals). To summarize, unwanted software on devices can lead to system infections, serious privacy issues and even identity theft.

To protect device integrity and user safety, you are strongly advised to remove all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

PUAs typically seem legitimate and useful, and users are often tempted into download/installation with offers of "useful" functionalities, however, the features promised are rarely operational.

Even if they do work, it is not as advertised. PUAs have just one purpose: to generate revenue for the developers, Regular users receive no real value and can instead experience serious problems. PUAs force-open untrusted/malicious web pages, deliver intrusive ad campaigns and gather private data.

How did adware install on my computer?

Certain PUAs have "official" promotional pages from which they can be downloaded, however, these applications are more commonly downloaded/installed with other products. This deceptive marketing technique of pre-packing normal software with unwanted or malicious additions is called "bundling".

By rushing through download/installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps and sections, etc.), many users risk inadvertently allowing bundled content into the system. Intrusive ads proliferate these apps as well. Once clicked, they can execute scripts to download/install PUAs without users' permission.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

You are strongly advised to research all software before download/installation or purchase. All downloads must be done from official and verified sources. Untrusted channels such as unofficial and free file-hosting websites, P2P sharing networks (BitTorrent, eMule, Gnutella, etc.) and other third party downloaders can offer dubious or bundled content.

When downloading/installing, it is important to read the terms, study all available options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of supplementary apps, tools, features, and so on. Intrusive advertisements may seem legitimate and harmless, however, they can redirect to dubious web pages (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating, etc.).

If you encounter ads/redirects of this kind, inspect the system and immediately eliminate all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
