How to stop a browser from opening sites like elopmyskillsi.biz?

What is elopmyskillsi[.]biz?

Elopmyskillsi[.]biz is a page designed to promote untrustworthy, potentially malicious websites and load shady content. What this website does depends on its visitor's IP address.

In one way or another, elopmyskillsi[.]biz is not a trustworthy page. It is important to mention that users do not visit websites like this one intentionally.

In most cases, users open them by clicking deceptive ads, visiting other dubious pages, or when a browser has a potentially unwanted application (PUAs) installed on it. More examples of pages that function like elopmyskillsi[.]biz are wholeactualjournal[.]com, bigclik[.]club, and akemewelsu[.]biz.

It is very common for pages like elopmyskillsi[.]biz to be designed to open a couple of untrustworthy, potentially malicious websites. For example, scam websites like "Google Membership Rewards", "Error Code: #2c522hq8wwj791", download websites for potentially unwanted applications like browser hijackers, adware-type apps, and so on.

For this reason, it is strongly recommended to avoid visiting elopmyskillsi[.]biz not to trust web pages that it opens. Another reason not to visit elopmyskillsi[.]biz is that it is designed to trick visitors into allowing it to show notifications.

As a rule, pages of this type use some clickbait technique to trick visitors into clicking the "Allow" button. Elopmyskillsi[.]biz displays a message suggesting that a video cannot be played unless the button mentioned above is clicked.

Usually, notifications from pages like elopmyskillsi[.]biz are used to advertise dubious websites, potentially unwanted or even malicious apps, and so on. Therefore, questionable websites should never be allowed to show their notifications.

Users who have any PUAs installed on browsers or computers should remove them as soon as possible. It is common that apps of this kind are designed to generate unwanted advertisements and collect various information.

They can display coupons, pop-up ads, surveys, banners, and other ads designed to open questionable, potentially malicious pages or download, install unwanted software by executing certain scripts. Additionally, PUAs can be used to collect IP addresses, entered search queries, geolocations, addresses of visited pages, and other browsing-related information.

Sometimes, these apps can access personal information. What is worse, gathered data is likely to be monetized by selling it to third parties (potentially cybercriminals), using it for marketing purposes, or in some other way.

Therefore, PUAs can be the culprit of issues related to online privacy, browsing safety, identity theft, or other problems.

As mentioned in the first paragraph, apps that promote pages like elopmyskillsi[.]biz are called potentially unwanted because not all users download and install them knowingly. It is common that they get tricked into it.

For example, some users download and install PUAs because they are advertised as legitimate apps with various features.

Although, most PUAs are useless and designed only to generate revenue for their developers. Users are highly advisable not to have apps of this kind installed on browsers or computers.

How did adware install on my computer?

Most users download or install potentially unwanted applications together with other programs. More precisely, users cause it when PUAs are included in downloaders, installers for other programs.

In such cases, downloaders or installers have "Manual", "Custom", "Advanced" or similar settings or ticked checkboxes. Users agree to download or install additionally included apps when they do not change the aforementioned settings (or untick checkboxes).

In some cases, users unexpectedly cause unwanted downloads or installations by clicking deceptive advertisements. There are advertisements designed to download or install PUAs by executing certain scripts. Typically, such ads appear on questionable, untrustworthy web pages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Applications should be downloaded from official websites (and through direct links). It is not safe to use third-party downloaders (or installers), unofficial web pages, Peer-to-Peer networks (e.g., torrent clients, eMule), and so on, to download or install any files, programs.

It is common that the aforementioned sources (and other sources of that kind) are used to distribute unwanted, potentially malicious software. Downloaders and installers that have settings like "Custom", "Advanced" or checkboxes often are used to distribute unwanted apps too.

Usually, their settings can be used to decline unwanted offers. It is important to remember to do that before a download or installation process is finished.

Additionally, it is recommended not to click ads while visiting any questionable pages. Very often, those ads are used to promote shady pages, and sometimes they can be designed to cause unwanted downloads, installations.

If there are any unwanted, unknown, or suspicious extensions, add-ons, or plug-ins installed on a browser or programs of this kind installed on the operating system, then they should be removed. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
