How to remove redirects to and from yourniceposts.com

Also Known As: yourniceposts.com pop-up
Damage level: Medium

What is yourniceposts[.]com?

yourniceposts[.]com is an untrustworthy website sharing similarities with hiroje.comabcnewspro.comonemessages.comsferverification.com and thousands of others. This web page presents visitors with dubious content and/or redirects them to other rogue and possibly malicious sites.

Few users access yourniceposts[.]com intentionally - most are redirected to it by intrusive ads or by Potentially Unwanted Application (PUAs) already infiltrated into the system. These apps do not need express user permission to be installed onto devices. PUAs operate by causing redirects, running intrusive ad campaigns and collecting browsing-related information.

yourniceposts[.]com pop-up redirects

When accessed, yourniceposts[.]com checks visitors' IP addresses to learn their geolocations. This information is key to determining the site's behavior. To elaborate, whether users are redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with dubious material, depends on their geolocations.

Furthermore, yourniceposts[.]com uses deceptive tactics to trick visitors into allowing its browser notifications - "Click the Allow button to subscribe to the push notifications and continue watching". If these notifications are enabled, yourniceposts[.]com begins running intrusive advertisement campaigns.

The delivered ads are more than just an annoyance, they are also dangerous. Once clicked, intrusive advertisements redirect to various untrusted/malicious sites, and some can even stealthily download/install rogue software (e.g. PUAs). This software can have other capabilities, as well as force-opening harmful web pages.

These apps can run intrusive ad campaigns. Most PUAs (regardless of type) can track data. They can monitor users' browsing activity (visited URLs, viewed pages, searched queries, etc.) and collect personal information extracted from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details).

The gathered data is then monetized by PUA developers by sharing with and/or selling to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals).

In summary, the presence of unwanted software on devices can result in system infections, financial loss, serious privacy issues and even identity theft. To ensure device integrity and user safety, you are strongly advised to remove all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

PUAs may seem legitimate and harmless, and offer a broad range of "useful" features, however, the advertised functionality rarely works as promised and, in most cases, does not work at all. The sole purpose of these unwanted apps is to generate revenue for the developers.

Regular users receive no real value and can instead experience serious issues. PUAs force-open dubious and malicious web pages, run intrusive advertisement campaigns and collect vulnerable information.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are distributed via the download/installation set-ups of other products. "Bundling" is the term used to describe this deceptive marketing technique of packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions.

By rushing through download/installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps, using "Easy/Express" settings, etc.), many users risk unintentionally allowing bundled content into their devices. Some PUAs have "official" download sites. When clicked, intrusive ads can execute scripts to download/install PUAs without users' consent.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

You are advised to research all software before download/installation and/or purchase. All downloads must be done from official and verified sources, since untrusted channels including unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks and other third party downloaders commonly offer deceptive and bundled content.

When downloading/installing, it is important to read the terms, explore all possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of additional apps, tools, features, and so on. Intrusive advertisements may seem normal, however, they can redirect to highly dubious sites (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating, etc.).

If you encounter these ads or redirects, inspect your devices and immediately remove all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins from them. 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.
