Websites of this type deliver browser notifications that push deceptive/malicious material. It is noteworthy that any genuine content encountered through these advertisements is most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse its affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did adrgyouguide[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
No website can display browser notifications (ads) without user consent. Hence, you have likely entered the adrgyouguide[.]com page and selected "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option – thus enabling the advert delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
If you access a suspicious webpage – do not permit it to display browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, deny notification delivery from such pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignore these requests altogether.
Should your browser continuously force-open questionable websites, it could be due to 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.

Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
