Potentially unwanted applications in general

Alfaiztech[.]com is an untrustworthy website that can open other pages of this kind and uses deception to trick visitors into agreeing to receive its notifications. Websites like alfaiztech[.]com get opened through shady ads, other dubious pages, or by installed PUAs. Users do not visit them intentionally.

How did adware install on my computer?

Adware and other types of PUAs are distributed through downloaders and installers for other programs. Users download or install those apps together with other programs when they do not change "Advanced", "Manual", "Custom" or other settings that their downloaders or installers have.

Also, PUAs are distributed through deceptive advertisements designed to run certain scripts and fake installers. Users download or install PUAs via ads by clicking on them. Fake installers are promoted through shady pages. Most of those pages use scare tactics to trick visitors into causing unwanted downloads, installations.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Downloads from questionable sources should not be trusted. Files and apps should be downloaded from legitimate pages. Ads displayed on shady websites should not be clicked as well. Downloads and installations should not be finished without checking downloaders and installers for settings like "Custom", "Advanced" and deselecting unwanted apps.

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