Websites of this type in general
Most of the times, users end up on websites of this type accidentally. They do not open such pages on purpose. These pages are promoted through dubious advertisements, websites, potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). Users rarely install PUAs intentionally.
How did adware install on my computer?
Users often agree to download or install PUAs by downloading or installing other programs without changing "Custom", "Advanced", or other settings available in their downloaders or installers. Another way to distribute PUAs is to lure users into clicking on deceptive ads designed to run certain scripts.
One more way to trick users into causing unwanted downloads or installations is through fake installers. Those installers are promoted on deceptive websites using scare tactics or other similar techniques.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Avoid using unofficial pages, third-party downloaders, free file hosting pages, or similar sources to download programs or files. It is recommended to download them from official pages and use direct links. Avoid clicking on ads that shady pages display.
Do not download or install programs without deselecting unwanted optional downloads or installations. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
