Browser notification spam in general

We have inspected thousands of rogue pages; colorattaches[.]com, datingkoe[.]info, ademinetworkc[.]com, and livemarinis[.]net are merely some of our newest finds. These websites deliver browser notifications that promote deceptive/malicious material.

Note that while legitimate products and services may be encountered via these adverts – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this fashion by any official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is performed by scammers seeking to acquire illegitimate commissions by abusing the promoted content's affiliate programs.

How did dwhitdoedsrag[.]org gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Hence, you have likely visited dwhitdoedsrag[.]org at some point and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option – thus enabling this webpage to deliver the advertisements.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

Be selective about which webpages are allowed to deliver browser notifications. Do not permit suspicious pages to do so, and instead ignore or deny these requests (i.e., click "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

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