How to uninstall software force-opening the rlongletterit.biz site?

What is the rlongletterit[.]biz website?

Rlongletterit[.]biz is a rogue webpage designed to load dubious content and/or redirect visitors to other untrustworthy or possibly malicious sites. The Internet is full of websites of this type; enuebenet.biz, yitmethissu.biz, and witmayhav.fun are just a couple of examples.

Users typically enter such pages unintentionally; most get redirected to them by intrusive adverts or PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications) already installed onto their devices. This software can infiltrate systems without user consent. PUAs are designed to force-open websites, run intrusive advertisement campaigns, and gather browsing-related data.

Once accessed, the first thing rlongletterit[.]biz does is check the visitor's IP (Internet Protocol) address to learn their geolocation. This information determined the site's further course of action.

To elaborate, whether visitors are presented with questionable material and/or get redirected to other webpages - depends on their geolocations (IP addresses). Furthermore, rogue websites tend to use deceptive tactics (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, etc.) to lure users into allowing their browser notifications.

Should the site's (e.g., rlongletterit[.]biz) notifications be enabled - it will start delivering intrusive advert campaigns. The delivered ads are misleading, unreliable, and potentially malicious.

They promote various rogue, sale-based, untrustworthy, deceptive/scam, and hazardous pages. Some intrusive adverts can even be triggered (by being clicked) to execute scripts designed to download/install software (e.g., PUAs) without user permission.

PUAs have heinous functionalities, which can be in different combinations. For example, these apps can cause redirects and/or delivering intrusive ad campaigns.

What is more, PUAs usually have data tracking abilities. They can monitor browsing activity (URLs visited, webpages viewed, search queries typed, etc.) and gather sensitive information extracted from it (IP addresses/ geolocations, personally identifiable details, etc.).

The collected data is then monetized by being shared with and/or sold to third-parties. In summary, the presence of unwanted software on systems can result in system infections, financial losses, severe privacy issues, and identity theft. To protect device and user safety, all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins must be removed immediately upon detection.

PUAs appear legitimate and harmless. They also offer a wide variety of "useful" features. However, the functions seldom work as advertised, and in most cases - they do not work at all.

The sole purpose of unwanted software is to generate revenue at user expense. Therefore, instead of delivering on any promises, PUAs can cause redirects, run intrusive advertisement campaigns, and collect private data.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs can be downloaded/installed together with other software. This deceptive marketing technique of packing regular programs with unwanted or malicious additions - is called "bundling".

Rushed downloads/installations (e.g., ignored terms, skipped steps and sections, etc.) increase the risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content into the system. Intrusive adverts spread PUAs as well.

Upon being clicked, intrusive ads can execute scripts to download/install these applications stealthily. PUAs may also have "official" download pages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is advised to research software products before download/installation and/or purchase. Additionally, all downloads must be performed from official and trustworthy sources.

Dubious download channels, e.g., unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, and other third-party downloaders - commonly offer harmful and/or bundled content. When downloading/installing, it is recommended to read terms, study possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out from additional apps, tools, features, etc.

Intrusive advertisements appear ordinary and innocuous; however, they redirect to various questionable sites (e.g., gambling, pornography, adult-dating, and many others). In case of encounters with ads and/or redirects of this kind, the system must be checked and all suspect 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.
