Feenotifyfriends.info POP-UP Ads

What is feenotifyfriends[.]info?

feenotifyfriends[.]info is yet another rogue website similar to pro-news.net, lalittandkedsi.info, gotwidores.info, and many others. This site is designed to display dubious content and cause unwanted redirects.

Many users visit feenotifyfriends[.]info inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive advertisements displayed on other dubious sites. PUAs are notorious for infiltrating computers without users’ permission. After successful infiltration, they cause unwanted redirects, deliver advertisements, and gather data.

Potentially unwanted applications infiltrate computers, start force-opening new browser tabs/windows, and redirect users to feenotifyfriends[.]info. Once visited, feenotifyfriends[.]info checks the user's internet Protocol (IP) address to determine the geolocation. This is done to ascertain whether the user should be presented with certain content or redirected even further.

In any case, users might encounter malicious content. Thus, redirects to and from feenotifyfriends[.]info might result in various system infections. The same applies to intrusive advertisements. Potentially unwanted applications usually deliver coupons, banners, pop-ups, and other similar advertisements.

These usually redirect to dubious websites and sometimes execute scripts designed to download other unwanted/malicious applications. Thus, clicking them can also result in system infections. Another significant downside is information tracking.

Potentially unwanted applications gather IP addresses, website URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries, and other similar information. The data is shared with third parties with third-parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who generate revenue by misusing private information.

Therefore, having data-tracking apps installed on your computer can lead to serious privacy issues or even identity theft. We strongly recommend that you remove all potentially unwanted applications immediately.

There are hundreds of potentially unwanted applications, all of which are very similar. They offer many "useful features" in an attempt to give the impression of legitimacy. In fact, they often succeed and trick users into these rogue installations. Following infiltration, however, these programs provide no value for regular users.

Potentially unwanted applications are designed only to generate revenue for the developers - they merely cause unwanted redirects and gather data.

How did adware install on my computer?

Some PUAs have official download websites, however, most users install them inadvertently without their consent, since developers proliferate them using the aforementioned intrusive advertisements and a deceptive marketing method called "bundling" (stealth installation of third-party apps with regular software).

Developers hide "bundled" software behind "Custom/Advanced" settings (or other sections) of the download/installation processes.

Furthermore, many users often click advertisements, rush download/installation procedures, and skip steps, thereby exposing their systems to risk of various infections and putting their privacy at risk. This behavior often leads to inadvertent installation of unwanted applications.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

To prevent system infiltration by PUAs, be very cautious when browsing the Internet and downloading/installing software. Carefully analyze each step of the download/installation processes using the "Custom" or "Advanced" settings. Opt-out of additionally-included programs and decline offers to download/install them.

Download software from official sources only, using direct download links. Third party downloaders/installers often include rogue apps, and thus these tools should never be used. Bear in mind that intrusive advertisements usually seem legitimate, however, they usually redirect to dubious websites (gambling, adult dating, pornography, and similar).

If you encounter these ads/redirects frequently, immediately remove all suspicious applications and browser 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.
