Websites like xdwhatijunn[.]xyz in general

Xdwhatijunn[.]xyz and similar sites attempt to get permission to show notifications (usually, they use some clickbait technique for that) and open shady pages. One of the ways to promote pages of this type is through potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). A big part of PUAs is promoted and (or) distributed using questionable methods.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are often distributed by including them in downloaders and installers for other programs as optional offers. Users download or install those apps with other programs when they do not deselect unwanted offers using "Advanced", "Custom", or similar settings, or checkboxes.

Another way to distribute PUAs is to use fake installers and deceptive advertisements. Users download or install PUAs through ads by clicking advertisements designed to execute certain scripts. Most fake installers get downloaded from deceptive websites (for example, from pages using scare tactics).

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Avoid downloading files or programs from unreliable sources. Use official websites and direct links for that. Do not download or install programs without checking downloaders and installers for optional downloads or installations. Usually, they can be found in "Custom", "Manual" or other settings, or near checkboxes.

Avoid clicking on shady ads, especially if they appear on untrustworthy, questionable websites. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
