Premium-offers.space POP-UP Redirect

Also Known As: premium-offers.space pop-up
Type: Adware
Damage level: Medium

What is premium-offers.space?

premium-offers.space is a rogue website similar to many other websites of this type (for example, kaymopk.com, go.leadgid.ru, and lawsivo.ru). 

The site is designed to redirect users to various other untrustworthy websites. Users often arrive at this website inadvertently - the redirects are caused by a potentially unwanted program (PUP). Typically, PUPs are installed without users' consent, cause redirects, deliver intrusive ads, gather information, and misuse system resources.

Once installed, potentially unwanted programs force browsers to redirect to premium-offers.space by opening a new tab or window. This site causes additional (typically 2-3) redirects to other untrustworthy websites that contain malicious content and imposes further problems (including computer infections).

Furthermore, PUPs collect user information such as geo-locations, keystrokes, search queries, visited websites, etc. Later, the data is shared with third parties (potentially cyber criminals) and used to generate revenue. These actions might cause users to encounter privacy issues or even identity theft.

Potentially unwanted programs deliver various intrusive ads (coupons, banners, pop-ups, surveys, etc.) that are displayed via tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site (and conceal underlying content).

Once clicked, these ads redirect to unwanted/untrustworthy sites, and some are even able to execute scripts that download and install potentially unwanted programs.

Clicking them can result in high-risk computer infections. Furthermore, some potentially unwanted programs run background tasks that affect computer performance. We advise you to remove these programs immediately.

Most PUPs are designed only to generate revenue by delivering ads, gathering information, and causing unwanted redirects. Developers offer various "useful features", but these rogue programs rarely provide the functionality promised or give any real value for regular users.

How did adware install on my computer?

Potentially unwanted programs can be downloaded from their official websites, however, they are commonly installed with other software or through intrusive ads. Developers use a deceptive marketing method called "bundling" to allow third party programs (PUPs) to be stealthily installed together with regular software.

Typically, information about PUP installation is not properly disclosed and developers hide these programs in "Custom", "Advanced", and other settings (and options) of the installation processes. In summary, many users install PUPs by skipping installation steps without carefully reading the information provided and checking available options.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

When downloading software, use official and trustworthy sources. Avoid third party software downloaders or installers, since most are monetized by promoting PUPs. Check each available option (such as "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar sections) of the installation process and ensure that any unwanted offers are deselected before finishing the installation.

Be careful when clicking intrusive ads, since they often redirect users to untrustworthy websites, such as pornography, gambling, adult dating, etc. If you have clicked this type of ad and were redirected to an untrustworthy website, close it and check if there are any unwanted plug-ins, extensions, or add-ons installed on your browser, or programs on your computer.

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