How to remove yourdailysecurity.com ads?
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on (updated)
What kind of page is yourdailysecurity[.]com?
The purpose of yourdailysecurity[.]com is to promote questionable websites and get permission to deliver notifications. Plenty of pages share the same qualities, for example, totalnicefeed[.]com, yourdesktopguardian[.]com, yoursurveyprogram[.]com. One more thing that these pages have in common is that users do not visit them on purpose.
Yourdailysecurity[.]com page in detail
Yourdailysecurity[.]com asks for permission to show notifications and, if allowed, it shows untrustworthy notifications. Those notifications are used to promote dubious pages, applications and (or) various scams.
Also, yourdailysecurity[.]com displays deceptive content (fake antivirus scan results) suggesting that a computer is infected. The content displayed by this page is very similar to the one displayed on the "Norton Subscription Has Expired Today" scam page.

Potentially unwanted applications in general
Yourdailysecurity[.]com can open untrustworthy pages and show shady notifications. Typically, users end up on pages like this one by clicking on untrustworthy ads, visiting other dubious sites. In other cases, these pages get opened by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) like adware.
How did adware install on my computer?
In most cases, PUAs get installed through deceptive ads designed to run certain scripts, fake installers, and installers for other programs (for programs bundled with PUAs). Ads download or install unwanted apps when users click on them. Fake installers usually get downloaded from deceptive websites (users get tricked into using them).
Installers (and downloaders) for other programs bundled with PUAs usually have "Advanced", "Manual" or other settings. PUAs get installed (or downloaded) when users install (or download) software without changing the abovementioned settings.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Use only official pages, platforms as sources for downloading programs (or files). Do not download or install programs until all unwanted applications are deselected (it can be done using the settings mentioned in the previous paragraph). Do not trust advertisements appearing on dubious pages.
If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?
Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.
Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
