Browser notification spam in general
We have examined numerous rogue pages; antivirusapp[.]space, bestpenad[.]com, and protectyourdesktop[.]click are merely a few examples. These sites display browser notifications that push deceptive and malicious content.
It is noteworthy that while genuine products or services may be encountered via these adverts – they are unlikely to be promoted by their developers. It is most probable that this endorsement is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did nvideas[.]site gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
It must be mentioned that no website can deliver browser notifications without user consent. Nvideas[.]site is not an exception – hence, you've likely visited this page at some point and permitted the advertisement delivery by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option presented on it.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
If you access a dubious webpage – do not enable it to deliver browser notifications (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advised denying notification delivery from such pages (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests altogether.
Should your browser continuously force-open suspicious sites without prompt, inspect the device for installed 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.
