How to remove the ads delivered by ositieonthat.space website?

What is the ositieonthat[.]space site?

Ositieonthat[.]space is a rogue website sharing common traits with news-hoyisa.cc, financesurvey24.top, aclientirethe.xyz, and countless others. It is designed to host dubious content and/or redirect visitors to various (typically, unreliable or malicious) sites.

Rogue webpages are seldom accessed intentionally; most users get redirected to them by untrustworthy sites, intrusive advertisements, or installed PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications).

Ositieonthat[.]space in detail

Rogue pages first check the visitors' IP addresses to learn their geolocations. This data determines the websites' further course of action, i.e., whether visitors are presented with questionable material and/or redirected elsewhere.

Furthermore, most sites of this kind use deceptive content (e.g., clickbait, misleading instructions, etc.) to lure users into allowing their browser notifications. This applies to ositieonthat[.]space as well; should its notifications be enabled - the webpage will start running intrusive advert campaigns.

The displayed ads are more than a minor annoyance, as they also endanger device and user safety. When clicked on, intrusive adverts redirect to untrustworthy/malicious websites, and some can stealthily download/install software (e.g., PUAs).

Potentially unwanted application overview

Despite their legitimate appearance, PUAs seldom work as advertised and typically have harmful abilities instead. Unwanted apps are designed to force-open pages, deliver intrusive advertisement campaigns, hijack browsers, and collect private data.

In summary, the presence of PUAs on devices can lead to system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and even identity theft.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs can be downloaded/installed together with other software. The technique of packing regular programs with unwanted/malicious additions - is called "bundling". Rushed downloads/installations increase the risk of allowing bundled content into the system.

Intrusive advertisements proliferate PUAs as well. Once clicked on, the adverts can execute scripts to make downloads/installations without user consent. Some PUAs may also have "official" download webpages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is recommended to research software and download only from official/verified sources. Untrustworthy download channels, e.g., unofficial and free file-hosting sites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, and other third-party downloaders - can offer bundled content.

When downloading/installing, it is advised to read terms, study possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out from all additions. Intrusive ads appear harmless, yet they redirect to questionable sites (e.g., gambling, adult-dating, pornography, etc.).

In case of encounters with such adverts and/or redirects, the system must be checked and all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - immediately removed from it. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
