Romantic-dates[.]top site in general

Romantic-dates[.]top is an untrustworthy page that redirects visitors to other shady pages and uses a clickbait technique to get permission to deliver notifications. This page is likely to be promoted through PUAs. Users rarely download and install apps of this kind on purpose.

How did adware install on my computer?

A big part of PUAs is distributed through downloaders or installers for other programs. Users end up having PUAs installed together with other programs when they do not change "Custom", "Advanced", "Manual", or other settings available in downloaders or installers.

Also, users download or install PUAs by clicking advertisements designed to run certain scripts or through fake installers downloaded from deceptive, potentially malicious websites.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Questionable, unofficial websites, third-party downloaders, and installers, Peer-to-Peer networks should not be used to download files or programs. It is recommended to use official websites. Advertisements that questionable pages have on them should not be trusted/clicked as well.

Optional downloads or installations in downloaders and installers should be deselected. It can be achieved using the settings mentioned in the previous section. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
