Acefarlessc[.]online and similar pages in general

Acefarlessc[.]online shares similarities with erewasnos[.]xyz, expensivesurvey[.]live, offersworld4u[.]online, and many other pages. Most users open websites of this type unintentionally. These pages should not be visited and allowed to show notifications.

How did adware install on my computer?

Users often cause unwanted downloads and installations through downloaders and installers for programs that are bundled with PUAs. Users agree to download or install PUAs when they do not check and change "Advanced", "Custom", or other settings or checkboxes in downloaders or installers.

Also, users download or install unwanted software by clicking on deceptive advertisements designed to execute certain scripts or through fake installers. An important detail about fake installers is that they can be used to distribute malicious programs (for example, Trojans).

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Programs and files should be downloaded from official, trustworthy websites and via direct links. It can be harmful to open files downloaded from unreliable sources. Advertisements appearing on untrustworthy websites can open other pages should not be clicked - those ads can cause unwanted downloads or installation as well.

Downloaders and installers with settings like "Advanced" and "Custom" should be checked for optional downloads and installations. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
