How to remove apps designed to promote 7mono.biz and similar sites

Also Known As: Ads by 7mono.biz
Damage level: Medium

What is 7mono[.]biz?

7mono[.]biz is virtually identical to hopsigna[.]com, message-inbox[.]icu, broindifferd[.]club and many other rogue, untrusted websites. Typically, they open other pages of this kind or load dubious content.

Note that users do not often visit sites such as 7mono[.]biz intentionally - they are opened through untrusted advertisements, dubious web pages or by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

7mono[.]biz pop-up redirects

Web pages such as 7mono[.]biz are opened in new browser windows or tabs by installed PUAs. They then load dubious content or open about two or three other pages of this kind. Note that these websites often trick users into giving permission to show notifications by using 'clickbait' techniques.

In most cases, they show notifications that contain links to untrusted pages, dubious advertisements, etc. Therefore, do not allow websites such as 7mono[.]biz to show notifications. Commonly, the aforementioned PUAs are designed to open dubious pages, display advertisements, and collect various user-system information.

They usually serve coupons, banners, surveys, pop-up ads, and other ads that can open untrusted websites or cause download/installation of unwanted apps by executing certain scripts. PUAs can also be designed to collect various browsing-related details.

For example, IP addresses, entered search queries, addresses of visited pages, geolocations, and other browsing data. In some cases, they are capable of accessing sensitive information as well. Developers sell the information to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) or misuse it to generate revenue in other ways.

Installation of PUAs can result in identity theft, problems relating to browsing safety, online privacy, and other issues. Therefore, you are strongly advised to remove such apps from your browser and computer.

Potentially unwanted applications are advertised as legitimate and useful, however, most are designed only to promote dubious addresses, display ads and gather various data. They are useless to regular users and can cause serious problems.

How did adware install on my computer?

In some cases, unwanted downloads and installations are caused by clicking deceptive ads that execute certain scripts, however, users more often download and install them together with other programs. I.e., when PUAs are included into set-ups of other programs as 'additional offers'.

Generally, users can decline such offers in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings of set-ups, however, many fail to check and change these settings. By leaving them unchanged, they agree by default with offers to download and install unwanted apps with their regular software. This distribution method of potentially unwanted apps is known as "bundling".

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Check all "Custom" and "Advanced" settings and decline offers to download or install unwanted apps. Change these setting before completing the download/installation processes of software. Programs and files should be downloaded from official pages and through direct links.

Other channels and sources such as third party downloaders, unofficial web pages, Peer-to-Peer networks (e.g., torrent clients, eMule) should not be used. Also avoid third party installers. Do not click intrusive ads that appear on dubious pages. They can open other dubious websites or cause unwanted downloads and installations.

Remove any unwanted extensions, plug-ins and add-ons that are installed on the browser. Also remove programs of this kind that are 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.

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.
