Potentially unwanted applications in general

News-wavaye[.]cc and similar pages cannot be trusted. As a rule, users end up on these pages by clicking on untrustworthy advertisements, or these sites get opened by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs), or through other dubious sites.

How did adware install on my computer?

It is common for PUAs to be distributed through downloaders or installers for other programs (by bundling them with other programs). Users cause unwanted downloads or installations when they do not change "Manual", "Advanced", or other settings available in downloaders or installers.

Sometimes, users cause unexpected downloads or installations by clicking advertisements designed to run certain scripts or through fake installers downloaded from deceptive pages (for example, pages claiming that a computer is infected).

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download applications (and files) from reliable sources like official web pages, platforms. Downloads from other sources could be malicious. Avoid clicking on advertisements that various dubious pages have on them.

Check downloaders and installers for optional downloads or installations and deselect the unwanted ones before downloading or installing software bundled with PUAs. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
