Sites like internalnetworkpc[.]com are typically accessed via redirects caused by pages that use rogue advertising networks.
Internalnetworkpc[.]com overview
The content encountered on and through rogue webpages might vary depending on visitors' IP addresses (geolocations). When we investigated internalnetworkpc[.]com, it ran the "You've visited illegal infected website" scam.
Despite being presented that way, this content is not associated with the McAfee anti-virus or McAfee Corp. It must be stressed that no website can detect threats on visitors' devices, and internalnetworkpc[.]com is not an exception. Scams of this kind most commonly endorse untrustworthy, fraudulent, and malicious apps as tools supposedly capable of removing nonexistent viruses/issues.
Additionally, internalnetworkpc[.]com requested users to allow it to display browser notifications. Advertisements of this type push online scams, unreliable/harmful software, and malware.
Therefore, via sites like internalnetworkpc[.]com - users can experience system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and even identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
We have inspected countless rogue webpages; prime-scanner[.]com, control-scanning[.]com, protect2023[.]xyz, daphomost[.]com, and alltimesecuritysystem[.]live are merely some of our newest finds.
These websites deliver browser notifications pushing deceptive and malicious material. However, these ads might endorse legitimate content, but it is unlikely to be promoted by the actual developers. Instead, this endorsement is undertaken by scammers abusing the products' affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did internalnetworkpc[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, it is likely that you have entered internalnetworkpc[.]com and consented to the ad delivery by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications, do not permit suspicious sites to display them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification requests from such webpages (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser keep force-opening questionable websites unprompted - it could be caused by adware installed onto it or the system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
