More details about thematt[.]xyz and similar websites

Tthematt[.]xyz and similar pages are promoted through shady advertisements, dubious pages, and PUAs. Most users download and install PUAs unknowingly - they are tricked into it. A step-by-step removal guide for PUAs is provided below.

How did adware install on my computer?

One of the ways used to trick users into downloading or installing PUAs is to distribute them via downloaders and installers of other programs. When users download or install programs without changing "Advanced", "Custom" or other settings, they download or install both wanted and unwanted apps.

Another deceptive way to distribute PUAs is to design advertisements to execute certain scripts. Users cause unexpected downloads, installations by clicking on those ads. In other cases, users download or install PUAs through fake installers.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Third-party downloaders, installers, unofficial web pages, Peer-to-Peer networks like torrent clients, eMule, and other sources should not be used to download or install apps. Applications and files should be downloaded from official pages and through direct links.

Downloaders, installers with "Advanced", "Custom," or other settings or ticked checkboxes should be checked for optional downloads or installations. One more way to avoid unwanted downloads or installations is to avoid clicking on advertisements displayed on shady pages.

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