Browser notification spam in general

Iageandinone[.]com, globalvantnow[.]com, inalours[.]com, advbeach[.]com, and bestvenadvertising[.]com are merely some examples of rogue pages that we have analyzed recently.

These websites deliver browser notifications that endorse online scams and malicious content. Keep in mind that any genuine products/services encountered through these advertisements are most likely promoted by scammers abusing their affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did adforprocessor[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot display browser notifications (ads) without user permission. Therefore, you have likely accessed adforprocessor[.]com and selected "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option – thus enabling the advertisement delivery.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If you enter a suspicious website – do not permit it to display browser notifications. In other words, do not select "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on such pages. Instead, deny notification requests – click "Block", "Block Notifications", etc. – or simply ignore them.

Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites without prompt, it could be due to 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.
