Remove unwanted apps designed to promote the-best-push-news.com

What is the-best-push-news[.]com?

the-best-push-news[.]com is promoted via dubious websites, deceptive advertisements, and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). I.e., users do often not visit these websites intentionally. There are many other examples on the web including alltopposts[.]com, reightpainf[.]top and content4you[.]net.

Commonly, the-best-push-news[.]com and similar sites are opened by browsers with PUAs installed on them. These apps often open the bogus sites in a new browser window or tab. When visited, the sites open two or three other untrusted websites or load dubious content - this depends on visitors' geolocations.

Typically, sites such as the-best-push-news[.]com attempt to trick visitors into clicking the "Allow" button, which then allows the visited web pages to show notifications. Generally, they use 'clickbait' techniques to trick people into clicking the button. Note that the-best-push-news[.]com states that visitors must click "Allow" to continue loading the page.

In most cases, these sites show notifications that contain website links to other untrusted pages, dubious advertisements, etc. Additionally, PUAs can serve various coupons, surveys, banners, pop-ups and other types of ads.

These often conceal underlying content of visited pages and, if clicked, open untrusted pages or even cause unwanted downloads and installations by executing certain scripts.

Furthermore, PUAs can track and record information - they can record browsing data such as IP addresses, geolocations, addresses of visited pages, entered search queries, and other browsing-related details. In some cases, they gather private, sensitive details as well.

The developers sell the information to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) or misuse it to generate revenue in other ways. In such cases, users might have problems relating to online privacy, browsing safety or even become victims of identity theft.

In summary, most potentially unwanted applications generate revenue for the developers by collecting information, serving intrusive advertisements and promoting untrusted web pages such as the-best-push-news[.]com (or other sites). They are useless to regular users and can cause various issues.

Therefore, remove all PUAs from browsers and computers. Note that, in most cases, users download and install these rogue apps inadvertently.

How did adware install on my computer?

Unwanted downloads and installations often occur when developers distribute PUAs by integrating them into the download/installation setups of other programs as "extra offers". This distribution method is known as "bundling". The offers can be declined in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings of the setups (or by unticking certain checkboxes).

Many users fail to check and change these settings (or untick the checkboxes), thereby allowing PUAs to infiltrate together with the desired software. PUAs are also downloaded and installed by clicking deceptive advertisements (usually on untrusted sites) that execute certain scripts.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

You are advised to research all software before download/installation. Use only official and verified download channels. Unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks (BitTorrent, Gnutella, eMule), and other third party downloaders commonly offer harmful and bundled content, and are therefore untrusted and should be avoided.

When downloading/installing, read the terms, study all possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of additional apps, tools, features, and so on. Intrusive advertisements typically seem legitimate, however, they can redirect to dubious and malicious sites (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating, and many others).

If you encounter ads or redirects of this kind, inspect the system and remove all dubious applications 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.
