Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is ourdadaikri[.]com?
Ourdadaikri[.]com is one of the many websites designed to promote various potentially malicious pages and display deceptive content. It is strongly recommended not to trust ourdadaikri[.]com and other similar pages (e.g., freevideos24h[.]com, hey-brazil[.]net, ersfeeiling[.]fun).
Usually, users open such pages unintentionally, for example, by clicking untrustworthy advertisements or visiting other dubious websites, or browsers open them when they have some potentially unwanted application (PUA) installed on them.
It is noteworthy that those apps are called potentially unwanted because most of them get downloaded and installed unknowingly.
As mentioned in the previous paragraph, ourdadaikri[.]com can load deceptive content or open a couple of other questionable websites. It detects visitor's geolocation and then does one or the other.
A couple of examples of websites that ourdadaikri[.]com could open are "You Are Our Winner Today!", "Suspicious Movement Distinguished On You IP". Websites like these are used to extract personal information (e.g., names, surnames, telephone numbers, or even credit card details), trick visitors into paying for fake software or services.
It is very likely that ourdadaikri[.]com could open download pages for adware, browser hijackers, and other unwanted applications as well. If ourdadaikri[.]com does not open other untrustworthy pages, then it loads its content.
As a rule, websites like ourdadaikri[.]com use some clickbait technique to trick visitors into clicking the "Allow" button and allowing them to show notifications. At the time of the research, ourdadaikri[.]com displayed a message encouraging to click the "Allow" button to continue watching a video.
It is important to know that websites like ourdadaikri[.]com show notifications designed to advertise potentially malicious pages, questionable software, etc. For this reason, it is strongly advisable not to agree to receive notifications from such websites.
It is important to mention that PUAs can be used to collect various data. For example, Internet Protocol addresses, visited websites (their addresses), entered search queries, geolocations, and other browsing-related information.
They also can be used to gather personal, sensitive details (e.g., credit card details, login credentials). The most important part is that gathered data may be sold to third parties (potentially cybercriminals), or monetized in other ways (e.g., by stealing personal accounts and using them to make fraudulent purchases, transactions).
Therefore, users of PUAs may encounter problems related to privacy, browsing safety, become victims of identity theft, lose money, etc. Additionally, PUAs can generate revenue for their developers by displaying advertisements (e.g., coupons, pop-ups, surveys, banners).
It is common that those ads are designed to open (advertise) questionable websites or even execute scripts designed to download or install some unwanted software.

In conclusion, websites like ourdadaikri[.]com are not trustworthy. The same applies to most of the pages that they are used to promote.
If a browser opens pages like ourdadaikri[.]com regularly, it is likely that it has some PUA installed on it (or a PUA is installed on the operating system). In such case, it is advisable to uninstall that app as soon as possible.
It is noteworthy that PUAs can be advertised as legitimate applications that include some features. Although, most of them are useless and can be the culprit of various issues.
How did adware install on my computer?
It is common that developers distribute potentially unwanted applications by bundling them together with other programs. Usually, they use downloaders, installers for free programs to promote/distribute PUAs.
Typically, those downloaders, installers have "Advanced", "Custom", "Manual", or other similar settings or checkboxes that can be used to opt out unwanted applications (decline unwanted offers). Unwanted apps get permission to be downloaded or installed alongside other programs when users finish their downloads, installations without changing any of the aforementioned settings.
To trick users into unwanted downloads, installations developers can use deceptive advertisements as well. In such cases, they design those ads to run certain scripts. Users download or install unwanted apps through those ads by clicking them.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
It is recommended not to use third-party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks (e.g., torrent clients, eMule), unofficial pages, and so on as sources, channels for downloading or installing any software. Programs (and files) should be downloaded from official pages and via direct download links.
Downloaders and installers that have settings like "Advanced", "Custom", "Manual" or ticked checkboxes should be checked for offers to download or install potentially unwanted apps. Additionally, it is advisable not to trust any advertisements that appear on shady pages.
It is common for those ads to be used to advertise potentially malicious pages. In some cases, those ads can be designed to cause unwanted downloads, installations.
Unwanted extensions, add-ons or plug-ins already installed on a web browser should be removed. The same applies to programs of this kind 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.
