What is l-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz?

L-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz asks for permission to show notifications, displays deceptive content, and opens untrustworthy websites. It is similar to haenkyouv[.]space, multipleprofit-now[.]life, servicaetod[.]top, and hundreds of other pages. Most of them are promoted through shady ads, websites, and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

L-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz page in detail

L-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz displays a loading spinner to give the impression that it will play a video after clicking the "Allow" button. Other pages of this type can use different clickbait techniques to trick visitors into agreeing to receive notifications from them.

Notifications from websites like l-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz advertise download pages for browser hijackers, adware (or other PUAs), scam websites designed to extract personal information, and so on. Trusting those notifications may result in monetary loss, identity theft, unwanted installations, and other issues.

As shown in the GIF image below, l-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz can open a download page for a PUA that is supposed to block online advertisements. It can open other questionable websites as well. Thus, l-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz and similar pages should be avoided.

Potentially unwanted applications in general

Websites like l-o-a-d-i-n-g[.]biz rarely open trustworthy pages. Most of them use deceptive techniques to trick visitors into agreeing to receive their notifications. Typically, users open websites of this type through dubious advertisements, websites, or these pages get opened by installed PUAs.

How did unwanted software install on my computer?

Users cause unwanted downloads and installations through downloaders and installers for other programs that have "Advanced", "Custom," or other settings (or ticked checkboxes). They agree to download or install PUAs by leaving those settings unchanged.

Also, users cause unexpected downloads or installations via deceptive advertisements (by clicking on advertisements designed to run certain scripts) or through fake installers. Fake installers are promoted on deceptive websites.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Downloaders and installers with "Manual", "Advanced", "Custom" or other settings (or checkboxes) should be examined - they can be used to distribute PUAs. Files and programs should be downloaded only from official pages and through direct links. Advertisements that questionable, untrustworthy websites display should not be clicked.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?

Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.

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.
