News-cofade[.]cc page in general

News-cofade[.]cc and similar websites can never be trusted. Also, they should never be allowed to deliver notifications. These pages are promoted through untrustworthy ads, other dubious pages, and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). Most users download and install PUAs inadvertently.

How did adware install on my computer?

Users often download and install potentially unwanted applications when these apps are distributed by including them in downloaders or installers for other programs. They agree to download or install PUAs when they do not change "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings available in downloaders or installers.

In some cases, users download and install PUAs by clicking advertisements designed to run certain scripts (typically, those ads appear on dubious pages) or through fake installers downloaded from untrustworthy pages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Applications and files should be downloaded from reliable sources such as official web pages. Downloads from other sources could be malicious. Ads appearing on dubious pages should not be clicked - those ads can open shady pages or cause unwanted downloads or even installations.

Also, it is recommended not to download or install programs without checking their downloaders or installers for included unwanted applications. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
