Browser notification spam in general

Webregadvertising[.]comoneqanatclub[.]comlundiapoditing[.]comnews-zedege[.]cc - are merely some examples of rogue webpages.

These sites endorse scams and malicious material. It is pertinent to mention that any legitimate products encountered through these ads are most likely promoted by scammers who abuse affiliate programs in order to obtain commissions fraudulently.

How did xxx-offers[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user permission. Therefore, you have likely visited xxx-offers[.]com and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option - thus enabling the page to display these adverts.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications, do not enable suspect sites to deliver them. In other words, we advise against clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or any similar options presented on such pages. Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery requests (i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open questionable websites, it could be caused by the presence of advertising-supported software (adware). If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
