Potentially unwanted applications in general

Thus, it is strongly recommended not to trust this site. Pretty often, pages like ereparison[.]space are promoted through potentially unwanted applications.
How did adware install on my computer?
It is common for PUAs to be distributed together with other programs. In such cases, downloaders or installers have "Advanced", "Manual", "Custom", or other options or checkboxes. PUAs get permission to be downloaded or installed when users do not change the settings mentioned above before downloading or installing programs.
Also, users cause unwanted downloads and installations by clicking deceptive advertisements designed to execute certain scripts or through fake installers that they download from deceptive websites. Users encounter shady ads and fake installers while visiting untrustworthy pages.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Files and programs should be downloaded only from official pages (and through direct links) because other sources can be used to distribute unwanted, malicious files. Downloaders and installers with settings like "Custom", "Advanced" or checkboxes should be checked for optional applications.
Various third-party installers and advertisements that appear on shady, questionable pages should not be trusted. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
