How to remove the ads displayed by yoursurveyprogram.com site?

What is yoursurveyprogram[.]com?

Yoursurveyprogram[.]com is a rogue website designed to load dubious content and/or redirect visitors to various (likely untrustworthy or malicious) sites.

The Internet is rife with such pages; alertsx.com, loopanews.com, and akaiksots.com are just a few examples of ones similar to yoursurveyprogram[.]com. Users typically access these websites via redirects caused by other rogue webpages, intrusive ads, or installed PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications).

Yoursurveyprogram[.]com overview

Whether visitors are presented with questionable content and/or get redirected elsewhere - depends on their IP addresses/ geolocations. Additionally, yoursurveyprogram[.]com has been observed promoting scams akin to "Norton Antivirus 2021 Update", "Your ANTIVIRUS subscription has expired", etc.

Most rogue pages try to trick visitors into allowing their browser notifications. This applies to yoursurveyprogram[.]com as well; should its notifications be enabled - it will begin running intrusive ad campaigns.

The delivered advertisements endorse sale-based, suspect, compromised, deceptive/scam, and even malicious sites. Furthermore, some intrusive adverts can stealthily download/install software (e.g., PUAs).

Potentially unwanted application overview

PUAs appear legitimate and harmless, yet they seldom work as promised. Instead, this software can force-open pages, run intrusive advert campaigns, hijack browsers, and collect private data. In summary, PUAs can cause system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and even identity theft.

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

PUAs can be downloaded/installed together with other programs - this technique is called "bundling". Rushed downloads/installations increase the risk of allowing bundled content into the device. Intrusive ads proliferate these apps by executing scripts to make downloads/installations without user consent - once clicked on. Some PUAs may also have "official" download webpages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is highly recommended to research software and only download from official/verified sources. Untrustworthy download channels, e.g., unofficial and freeware websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, etc. - commonly offer bundled content.

When downloading/installing, it is advised to read terms, study possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out from all additions. Intrusive adverts appear innocuous, yet they redirect to questionable sites (e.g., pornography, adult-dating, gambling, etc.).

In case of encounters with such advertisements and/or redirects, the system must be inspected and all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - removed from it without delay. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
