Browser notification spam in general

We have written about thousands of rogue pages; fujivista[.]topinitiatenewestextremelythe-file[.]top, and mairozisha[.]com are but a few of our newest articles.

These websites deliver browser notifications endorsing deceptive and malicious material. Note that any genuine content encountered via these adverts is most likely promoted by scammers who abuse its affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did kilimanjarospot[.]top gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites can only deliver browser notifications with user permission. Hence, you have likely accessed kilimanjarospot[.]top at some point and permitted the advertisement delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

It is important to always be selective when permitting sites to deliver browser notifications. Dubious webpages must not be enabled to do so; instead, notification requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

It is pertinent to mention that having adware installed on the browser or system can result in questionable websites being forced-opened at random. Should you keep experiencing such redirects, inspect the device and immediately remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?

Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.

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.
