Browser notification spam in general
We have analyzed thousands of rogue webpages; news-hexuma[.]com, myadvastudio[.]com, and legivenestatery[.]com are just a couple of examples.
These sites display browser notifications promoting deceptive and malicious content. Note that any legitimate products or services encountered through these adverts are unlikely endorsed by their actual developers/creators. It is most probable that the promotion is undertaken by scammers abusing the content's affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did torggissoft[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Sites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. If you are seeing these adverts from torggissoft[.]com – it means that you've likely entered this webpage at some point and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option displayed on it.
It is pertinent to mention that rogue websites often use deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, etc.) to trick visitors into enabling the ad delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
If you access a suspicious webpage – do not permit it to deliver browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, we advise ignoring or denying notification requests from such pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser keep force-opening suspicious websites without prompt, 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.
