How to remove applications force-opening the besty-deals.com website?

What is besty-deals[.]com?

Sharing many similarities with maximus-time.com, ne01.biz, enquiryofh.fun, lib2.biz, and countless of others, besty-deals[.]com is an untrustworthy website. This page presents visitors with dubious content and/or redirects them to unreliable/malicious sites.

Users usually access such webpages inadvertently. Most get redirected to them by intrusive advertisements or installed PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications).

This software does not require explicit permission to infiltrate systems; hence, users may be unaware of its presence. PUAs operate by causing redirects, delivering intrusive advert campaigns, and collecting browsing-related and other sensitive information.

The first thing besty-deals[.]com does is check its visitor's IP (Internet Protocol) address to learn their geolocation. This data is key to determining the webpage's further course of action.

Therefore, whether visitors get redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with questionable material - depends on their geolocations/ IP addresses. Additionally, most sites of this kind use deceptive statements and content to lure users into allowing their browser notifications.

This is true of besty-deals[.]com as well; it employs fake CAPTCHA verification to trick its visitors. Should the notifications be enabled, besty-deals[.]com will begin running intrusive advertisement campaigns.

The delivered ads diminish the browsing experience and pose a threat to device/user safety. Once clicked on, intrusive adverts redirect to various untrustworthy/malicious websites, and some can stealthily download/install software (e.g., PUAs).

PUAs can have heinous functionalities, and these functions can be in different combinations. For example, these apps can force-open webpages and/or run intrusive advert campaigns.

Furthermore, most PUAs (regardless of other abilities) can track data. They can monitor browsing activity (visited URLs, viewed pages, searched queries, etc.) and gather vulnerable information (IP addresses/ geolocations, personally identifiable details, etc.).

The collected data is then shared with and/or sold to third-parties (potentially, cyber criminals). In summary, the presence of unwanted apps on devices - can lead to system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and even identity theft.

To ensure device integrity and user privacy, all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins must be eliminated immediately upon detection.

PUAs typically appear ordinary and innocuous. They also offer a wide variety of "useful" features.

However, the functions seldom work as promised, and in most cases - they are utterly nonoperational. The only purpose of unwanted software is to generate profit for the developers; hence, functionality and user safety are irrelevant.

PUAs are designed to cause redirects, deliver intrusive advertisement campaigns, and gather private information.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are distributed via download/installation setups of other software. This deceptive marketing method of packing regular products with unwanted or malicious additions - is called "bundling".

Rushed download/installation processes (e.g., skipped steps and sections, used "Easy/Quick" settings, etc.) increase the risk of unintentionally allowing bundled content into the device. Some PUAs also have "official" promotional/download webpages.

When clicked on, intrusive adverts can execute scripts to download/install these applications without user consent.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is advised to research products prior to download/installation and/or purchase. Furthermore, all downloads must be performed from official and verified sources.

Untrustworthy download channels, e.g., unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, and other third-party downloaders - often offer harmful and bundled content. Download and installation processes have to be treated with care.

Therefore, it is recommended to read terms, study possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and decline downloading/installing additional apps, tools, features, and so on. It is just as important to exercise caution when browsing. Intrusive advertisements appear legitimate; however, they redirect to highly questionable sites (e.g., adult-dating, pornography, gambling, etc.).

In case of encounters with ads and/or redirects of this type, the system must be checked and all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - removed from it without delay. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

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.
