How to remove software causing redirects to the jashautchord.com site?
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What is jashautchord[.]com?
Jashautchord[.]com is a rogue website sharing similar traits with alpha-news.org, vgdjhz.com, trking.xyz, and countless others. This page is designed to present visitors with dubious content and/or redirect them to various sites (likely unreliable or malicious ones).
Users typically access such websites unintentionally. Most get redirected to them by rogue webpages, intrusive ads, or installed PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications). This software can infiltrate systems without user permission and subsequently cause redirects, run intrusive advertisement campaigns, and collect browsing data.
Jashautchord[.]com in detail
The behavior of jashautchord[.]com is determined by its visitors' geolocations. The site learns this information by checking users' IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. In other words, whether visitors are presented with questionable material and/or get redirected elsewhere - depends on their geolocations.
Additionally, most rogue webpages use clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, and other deceptive content to trick visitors into enabling their browser notifications. Jashautchord[.]com is not an exception to this, and should its notifications be allowed - the website will start running intrusive advertisement campaigns.
The delivered adverts are more than just a nuisance, they also endanger device and user safety. They endorse sale-oriented, untrustworthy, deceptive/scam, and malicious sites. Furthermore, some of these advertisements can be triggered (by being clicked on) to execute scripts designed to make stealthy downloads/installations.
How do potentially unwanted applications operate?
Potentially unwanted applications can have varied harmful functionalities, and these functions can be in different combinations. For example, these apps can force-open websites and/or run intrusive advert campaigns. What is more, most PUAs have data tracking abilities.
Information of interest includes: URLs visited, webpages viewed, search queries typed, IP addresses/ geolocations, personally identifiable details, and so forth. PUA developers monetize the collected data by sharing it with and/or selling it to third-parties (potentially, cyber criminals).
In summary, the presence of unwanted software on devices can result in system infections, severe 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 removed without delay.

Potentially unwanted applications in general
PUAs appear legitimate and offer a wide variety of "handy" features. However, the functionalities are seldom operational. The sole purpose of unwanted apps is to generate profit for the developers. 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 alongside other software. This deceptive marketing tactic of packing regular programs with unwanted or malicious additions - is termed "bundling". Rushed download/installation processes (e.g., ignored terms, skipped steps, etc.) increase the risk of allowing bundled content into the device.
Intrusive advertisements are used to proliferate PUAs as well. Once clicked on, the ads can execute scripts to download/install these applications stealthily. Some PUAs also have "official" promotional pages from which they can be downloaded and/or purchased.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
It is advised to research software before download/installation. Additionally, 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 content.
When downloading/installing, it is recommended to read terms, explore available options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings to opt-out from supplementary apps, tools, etc. Intrusive adverts appear legitimate; however, they redirect to various questionable sites (e.g., gambling, pornography, adult-dating, and so forth).
In case of encounters with such ads and/or redirects, the device must be checked and all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - removed from it immediately. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
