Written by Tomas Meskauskas on
What kind of page is delimitationtwo[.]xyz?
Delimitationtwo[.]xyz is a rogue webpage designed to run scams and promote spam browser notifications. It can also redirect users to different (likely dubious/malicious) sites.
Most visitors enter pages like delimitationtwo[.]xyz via redirects generated by websites that use rogue advertising networks. Our research team discovered delimitationtwo[.]xyz while investigating sites that employ said networks.
Delimitationtwo[.]xyz overview
It is noteworthy that the behavior of rogue webpages (i.e., what they host and/or promote) may vary based on the visitor's IP address/ geolocation.
At the time of research, delimitationtwo[.]xyz ran the "Your Windows 10 is infected with viruses" scam. Immediately upon access to this site, it presented us with a program interface – supposedly belonging to the McAfee anti-virus. In swift order, this fake interface was overlaid by a pop-up. It mimicked the Windows 10 color palette and style.
The pop-up alerted that the visitor's device was infected with viruses and other malicious apps – these threats must be removed, or else the system would experience further damage. Additionally, the bogus alert stated that by leaving delimitationtwo[.]xyz – the computer would remain damaged and vulnerable. In the background of the page, a fake system scan took place.
It must be emphasized that this scheme is in no way associated with either McAfee or Windows. Furthermore, no site can detect threats/issues present on visitors' devices – hence, any that makes such claims are scams. In most cases, deceptive content of this kind is used to endorse untrustworthy, harmful, and malicious applications.
What is more, delimitationtwo[.]xyz requested its browser notification delivery to be enabled. If allowed, the site will spam users with notifications/ads endorsing online scams, unreliable/hazardous software, and even malware.
In summary, via pages like delimitationtwo[.]xyz – users can experience system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
It is paramount to be cautious while browsing since fake and malicious online content usually appears legitimate and harmless. To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications – do not enable suspicious sites to deliver them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny the notification requests from such websites (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites without prompt, it could be due to the presence of advertising-supported software (adware) on the device. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
