Ibuhaughuss[.]com overview

How rogue pages operate (i.e., what they host/promote) may depend on the visitor's IP address/ geolocation. When we entered the ibuhaughuss[.]com site, it displayed a yellow loading bar switching between 98% and 99%. Bellow the bar were deceptive instructions – "Click the Allow button to subscribe to the push notifications and continue watching" – thus falsely implying that the notification delivery must be enabled to resume viewing online content.

Rogue websites use their browser notifications to run intrusive advertisement campaigns. Hence, if users allow ibuhaughuss[.]com to display notifications, they will be spammed with advertisements that promote online scams, unreliable/harmful software, and even malware.

Browser notification spam in general

We have inspected thousands of rogue webpages; hintonjour[.]com, allimpactdesign[.]com, agabreloomr[.]com, adforprocessor[.]com, advnotsystems[.]com, advnotreviews[.]com – are merely some examples of rogue sites that we have inspected recently.

These websites deliver browser notifications that promote online scams and malicious content. Note that any legitimate products or services encountered via these adverts are highly unlikely to be endorsed by their actual developers. Instead, this promotion is undertaken by scammers abusing the content's affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.

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

Websites can only deliver browser notifications with user consent. Therefore, you have likely entered ibuhaughuss[.]com and permitted the ad delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications – do not enable suspicious websites to display them. In other words, do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or any analogous options presented on these pages. Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery requests – i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.

In case of encounters with continuous unprompted redirects to dubious sites, inspect the device for 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.
