More details about websites of this type
Typically, pages like stream-best-vid[.]com are promoted through dubious advertisements, untrustworthy websites, or potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that most users install inadvertently. Most of them use clickbait techniques to trick visitors into agreeing to receive their notifications.
How did adware install on my computer?
One of the most common ways to cause unexpected downloads or installations is to download or install programs without changing settings available in their downloaders or installers. Usually, optional downloads or installations can be deselected using "Custom", "Advanced", or other settings.
Less common ways to unknowingly download or install PUAs is to click on advertisements designed to run certain scripts or to use fake installers downloaded from untrustworthy websites.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Download apps and files from legitimate, official pages and via direct links. Avoid using other sources. Always check downloaders or installers for "Custom", "Manual", "Advanced" or other settings to see whether they mention any optional downloads or installations. Avoid visiting questionable pages and clicking advertisements displayed on them.
If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
