How to remove apps that promote the superpush.net web page
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is superpush[.]net?
People do not often visit websites such as superpush[.]net intentionally - they are usually opened by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs), through other bogus web pages, or dubious advertisements.
Note that superpush[.]net is similar to yourwownewz[.]com, npolicito[.]online, roboverify[.]xyz site, and many other web pages.
Usually, once a page such as superpush[.]net is visited/opened, it opens about two or three other bogus websites or it displays dubious content. What happens after visiting a page such as this one depends on the geolocation of the visitor.
These site often attempt to trick visitors into giving permission to show notifications using 'clickbait' techniques - superpush[.]net states that, to continue streaming, visitors must click the "Allow" button. You are strongly advised not to click the buttons when such pages are opened. Typically, these sites show notifications that contain links to other untrusted pages, deceptive ads, or they display dubious content.
As well as promoting pages such as superpush[.]net, PUAs generate advertisements and collect user-system information as well. In such cases, they serve coupons, surveys, banners, pop-ups, and other ads. If clicked, these open untrusted web pages, and sometimes cause unwanted downloads and installations by executing certain scripts.
PUAs often gather details such as entered search queries, addresses of visited pages, geolocations, and IP addresses. In some cases, they target sensitive information as well. The collected data could be sold to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) or monetized in other ways.
Therefore, when users have apps of this type installed on browsers and/or computers, they are at risk of having their identities stolen, encountering issues relating to online privacy and browsing safety, and experiencing other problems.

In summary, most PUAs open pages such as superpush[.]net (and other bogus pages), generate advertisements, and gather data.
The main purpose of these apps is to generate revenue for the developers. They are classified as PUAs because users often download and install them 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?
Download software and files from official websites and via direct links. It is not safe to use torrent clients, eMule (or other Peer-to-Peer networks), third party downloaders, unofficial websites or other sources of this kind.
Avoid third party installers. Check "Advanced", "Custom" and other settings, and decline offers to download or install unwanted software. Do not click ads that are displayed on dubious websites, since they can open other untrusted websites or even cause unwanted downloads and installations.
Remove any unwanted, suspicious applications (extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins) that are installed on the browser. The same should be applied to programs of this kind that are installed on the operating system.
Regularly scan your computer with reputable antivirus or anti-spyware software and keep this software up to date.
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.
