How to remove the advertisements delivered by profitsurvey24.com site?

What is profitsurvey24[.]com?

Akin to linodeobjects.com, verifyrobots.online, tiontowriting.xyz, and thousands of others, profitsurvey24[.]com is a rogue website. It operates by loading questionable/deceptive content and/or redirecting visitors to various (likely unreliable or malicious) webpages.

Rogue sites are seldom accessed intentionally. Most users get redirected to them by suspect pages, intrusive adverts, or PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications) already installed onto their devices.

Profitsurvey24[.]com overview

Whether visitors to profitsurvey24[.]com are presented with dubious material and/or redirected to other websites - depends on their IP addresses/ geolocations.

Additionally, sites of this kind usually try to deceive users into allowing their browser notifications. Should profitsurvey24[.]com notifications be enabled, it will begin running intrusive advertisement campaigns. The displayed advertisements (notifications) endorse a broad range of sale-based, unreliable, scam, and malicious pages. Furthermore, some intrusive ads can infiltrate software (e.g., PUAs) into systems - once clicked on.

Potentially unwanted application overview

PUAs look harmless and offer "handy" functionalities, which are typically nonoperational. Due to the only aim of this software being profit - functionality and user safety are irrelevant. Instead of delivering on any advertising promises, PUAs can cause redirects, run intrusive ad campaigns, hijack browsers, and collect private information.

To summarize, the presence of unwanted apps on devices can result in system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

PUAs can be downloaded/installed together with other software. "Bundling" is the name of this marketing tactic - pre-packing ordinary programs with unwanted/malicious additions. Intrusive adverts proliferate PUAs as well. Upon being clicked, the advertisements can make downloads/installations without user permission. PUAs may also have "official" promotional/download webpages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

It is strongly advised 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. - often offer bundled and dangerous programs/media.

When downloading/installing, it is crucial to read terms, explore available options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out from all supplements. Intrusive ads appear legitimate; however, they redirect to various questionable sites (e.g., gambling, pornography, adult-dating, etc.).

If such advertisements/redirects are encountered, the device must be inspected and all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - removed 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.
