What is plsppushme[.]com?

plsppushme[.]com is a web address that should not be trusted. Most people do not visit this site intentionally - it is opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on browsers or operating systems. Examples of other web pages of this type are routgpushs[.]com, procontent[.]me, and exclusivenotifications[.]com.

When opened, they display dubious content or open other untrustworthy web pages. In addition to forcing people to visit dubious sites, PUAs gather data and feed users with unwanted ads. Many people download and install PUAs unintentionally.

When opened, plsppushme[.]co shows dubious content or opens more (about two or three) untrustworthy websites. When these sites show dubious content, they often ask visitors to verify that they are not robots (or using other clickbait technique) to trick people into clicking a button that leads to a rogue site or executes a certain script.

These techniques can be used to trick visitors into giving permission for rogue pages such as plsppushme[.]com to show unwanted notifications. In other cases, plsppushme[.]com (or other sites of this type) redirect to a number of potentially malicious websites. PUAs that open these sites also gather data and display ads.

They record IP addresses, geolocations, entered search queries, URLs of visited websites and other data relating to users' browsing activities. Unfortunately, some PUAs also collect personal information. Developers share the details with third parties who misuse private data to generate revenue.

Furthermore, PUAs might be designed to feed users with various unwanted ads such as coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups (and others). When clicked, these run scripts that download and install other PUAs or they redirect users to untrustworthy, deceptive websites.

In summary, PUAs can lead to problems with browsing safety, privacy, and unwanted downloads/installations. In some cases, they might be used to steal identities. Therefore, you are advised to uninstall all PUAs immediately.

Most potentially unwanted applications are advertised as legitimate, useful, and so on, however, few function as advertised. They open dubious sites, collect user-system details, and display ads. Most PUAs perform actions to enable developers to generate revenue and cause a number of problems for regular users.

How did adware install on my computer?

In many cases, download and install PUAs through intrusive ads or when developers promote them using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling", which is uses to trick people into downloading and/or installing unwanted software together with regular programs.

To achieve this, they hide information about additional download or installations in settings such as "Custom", "Advanced" (or other sections) of the download or installation set-ups. Note that unintentional downloads and installations happen when people download or install software without checking settings available in the setup.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

To avoid download/installation of PUAs, check all settings that are available in each download or installation setup. If a setup contains offers to download or install unwanted software, dismiss them.

Download programs from official websites and not to use third party downloaders or installers, Peer-to-Peer networks such as torrent clients, eMule and other such tools, unofficial pages, and so on. Do not click intrusive ads, especially if they are displayed on dubious sites (relating to gambling, adult dating, pornography, etc.).

These ads usually redirect people to untrustworthy websites or start unwanted downloads/installations. If the browser displays unwanted advertisements and/or opens dubious websites, check installed apps and remove all unwanted, suspicious extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins.

Also uninstall unwanted programs from the operating system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
