How to uninstall applications designed to open nipwaghue.com?

What is nipwaghue[.]com?

There are many websites like nipwaghue[.]com on the Internet. A couple of examples are n02[.]biz site, maximus-time[.]com, and enquiryofh[.]fun.

It is noteworthy that users do not visit them willingly. Usually, they open those pages accidentally, for example, by clicking deceptive advertisements or visiting other shady pages.

It is also common that browsers open untrustworthy pages by themselves when they have a potentially unwanted application (PUA) installed on them. Most users download and install PUAs unknowingly because those apps are distributed using deceptive techniques.

Once websites like nipwaghue[.]com get visited, they display their deceptive content or open about two, three other questionable websites. It depends on the geolocation of their visitors.

It is common that pages like nipwaghue[.]com are used to promote deceptive download pages for adware, browser hijackers, and other unwanted software, various scam pages, and so on. Some examples are "Norton Antivirus 2021 Update", "Code #007d3Cx0d", "Chance To Win The Brand New Playstation 5".

Furthermore, nipwaghue[.]com and other pages of this type are designed to trick their visitors into clicking the "Allow" button. As a rule, they use some clickbait technique for that.

Nipwaghue[.]com displays a message asking to participate in a survey and then click the "Allow" button to see the results. Typically, notifications from untrustworthy websites like nipwaghue[.]com contain shady advertisements, links to potentially malicious pages, etc.

Therefore, neither nipwaghue[.]com or any other page of this kind should be allowed to show notifications. It is common that users are forced to visit pages like nipwaghue[.]com by PUAs installed on their browsers and computers.

It worthwhile to mention that PUAs can function as data collectors designed to gather IP addresses, geolocations, entered search queries, addresses of visited pages, etc.), and even sensitive information. Another issue is that gathered information may be sold to third parties (potentially cybercriminals), used for marketing purposes, or monetized in other ways.

Furthermore, PUAs can be designed to generate advertisements, for example, banners, coupons, pop-up ads, surveys. The problem with those ads is that they tend to be used to promote questionable websites.

In some cases, they are designed to download or even installation of unwanted software by running certain scripts.

In conclusion, it is strongly recommended not to visit websites like video-change[.]digital. It is not safe to visit pages that they promote too. If a browser opens untrustworthy web pages regularly (and automatically), it is likely that there is a potentially unwanted application installed on it.

As mentioned in the first paragraph, applications of this kind can be designed serve advertisements and gather browsing data or even more personal information. Therefore, it is strongly advisable not to have apps of this kind installed on browsers, or the operating system.

How did adware install on my computer?

One of the most popular methods to trick users into downloading or installing potentially unwanted applications is to include them in downloaders and installers for other programs as additional offers.

This distribution method is called "bundling". Users download or install PUAs together with other programs when they do not check the "Advanced", "Custom" or other settings and leave them unchanged, or when users leave available checkboxes ticked.

Sometimes, users cause unwanted downloads or installations by clicking deceptive advertisements. However, users cause them only if they click ads that are designed to execute certain scripts only.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is recommended to check downloaders and installers for ticked checkboxes and "Manual", "Custom", "Advanced" or other settings. Quite often, downloaders, installers with the aforementioned settings are bundled with potentially unwanted applications.

Those settings can be used to decline unwanted offers. Also, it is advisable to download programs (and files) should from official websites and through direct links.

It is common that download sources like unofficial pages, third-party downloaders, Peer-to-Peer networks (like torrent clients, eMule), are used to distribute unwanted, potentially malicious programs. Third-party installers often are used to distribute unwanted programs too.

Additionally, it is recommended not to click advertisements that various questionable websites ave on them. It is common that ads on those pages are used to promote other untrustworthy websites.

In some cases, those ads can cause unwanted downloads, installations. Unwanted, unknown or suspicious extensions, add-ons or plug-ins installed on a browser (or programs of this kind installed on the operating system) should be uninstalled.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
