What is yitmethissu[.]biz?

There are many websites like yitmethissu[.]biz, for example, are witmayhav[.]fun, todhamilton[.]pro, and news-howaci[.]cc. Typically, users do not visit pages of this type on purpose - they get opened through clicked dubious advertisements, other shady pages, or by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

Websites like yitmethissu[.]biz check the IP addresses of their visitors and then open a couple of other questionable sites or load deceptive content (usually, they display a deceptive message encouraging visitors to click the "Allow" button).

At the time of the research, yitmethissu[.]biz displayed a message asking to click the "Allow" button to continue loading/navigating it. It is strongly recommended not to click that button while visiting pages like yitmethissu[.]biz - most of them are designed to show notifications used to advertise shady websites, questionable applications, etc.

It is important to mention that other websites like yitmethissu[.]biz can use different clickbait techniques to trick visitors into allowing them to show notifications. For example, it is common for them to display a fake CAPTCHA test asking to click the "Allow" button to prove that visitors are not robots.

Also, yitmethissu[.]biz can open potentially malicious websites, for example, "Code 0x03A10 (0E10)", "Important Defender Update Available", "Norton Antivirus 2021 Update", and other pages used to trick unsuspecting visitors into providing personal information (e.g., credit card details, passwords), purchasing unnecessary software, installing potentially unwanted apps (e.g., adware, browser hijackers), etc. These are the two main reasons why yitmethissu[.]biz should not be visited/trusted.

It is common that pages like yitmethissu[.]biz are promoted through potentially unwanted applications. It is noteworthy that apps of this kind can be monetized by designing them to generate advertisements and collect data as well.

They can generate advertisements designed to open questionable websites and cause unwanted downloads, installations by running certain scripts. In most cases, PUAs serve are coupons, banners, pop-ups, surveys, and other ads.

Examples of details that most PUAs gather are addresses of visited websites, entered search queries, geolocations, IP addresses, etc. In some cases, they gather sensitive information that may be used for marketing purposes, sold to third parties (potentially cybercriminals), used to steal online accounts, identities, etc. Therefore, it is highly advisable not to have any PUA installed on a web browser or the operating system.

To summarize, it is common for PUAs to be designed to promote websites like yitmethissu[.]biz and serve advertisements and collect browsing data and (or) other information. It is worth mentioning that PUAs can be advertised as legitimate, useful applications.

Nevertheless, most of them have one purpose - to generate revenue for their developers. Users who have apps of this kind installed on their browsers or the operating systems should uninstall them as soon as possible.

How did adware install on my computer?

It is common for potentially unwanted applications to be distributed through downloaders and installers for other programs. This distribution method is known as "bundling".

In such cases, PUAs are included in downloaders, installers as additional offers. Typically, those offers can be found in "Custom", "Advanced", and other similar settings or near ticked checkboxes.

When users download or install programs without checking and changing those settings (or unticking checkboxes), they agree to download or install additionally included apps as well. In some cases, unexpected downloads or installations are caused by clicking deceptive advertisements that are designed to execute certain scripts.

It is worth mentioning that it is very unlikely for such ads to appear on legitimate websites.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is advisable to download programs or files from reliable, official websites and via direct download links. Torrent clients, eMule (and other Peer-to-Peer networks), third-party downloaders (and installers), unofficial websites, etc., can be used as channels to distribute potentially unwanted, malicious programs.

Also, it is recommended to check downloaders and installers for settings like "Advanced", "Custom" or checkboxes to see if they can be used to decline unwanted offers. Additionally, it is advisable to avoid clicking ads that dubious websites (e.g., pages relating to gambling, adult dating, pornography) have on them.

Those ads could be designed to open other untrustworthy websites, or cause unwanted downloads, installations. Unwanted extensions, plug-ins, or add-ons installed on a web browser or programs of this kind installed on the operating system 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.
