Stop getting redirects to and from aleailarm.com

What is aleailarm[.]com?

Similar to alballaim.com, joophesh.com, procontent.me, and watchonline.click, aleailarm[.]com is a rogue website. It generates redirects to various other untrustworthy and malicious websites and feeds users with dubious content (e.g. 'clickbait').

Note that few users access this site willingly - most are redirected to it by intrusive advertisements and PUAs (potentially unwanted applications). Unwanted apps often do not need explicit user consent to infiltrate their devices. Once successfully infiltrated, these applications generate redirects, deliver intrusive ad campaigns, and track data.

The course of action that aleailarm[.]com takes depends on visitors' geolocations. It learns this data by checking their IP addresses. It then redirects them elsewhere and/or presents them with dubious content. Note that that this deceptive website uses browser notifications.

By disguising the consent option beneath clickbait (e.g., "Click here to view newest videos/movies/TV", "Tap 'Allow' to verify, that you are not a robot", "Press "Allow" to continue to this site", etc.) it tricks users into allowing notifications. In this way, users might enable aleailarm[.]com to begin delivering intrusive advertisement campaigns (pop-ups, banners, surveys, coupons, and so on).

The ads are classed as a threat due to the dubious/malicious sites they redirect to, and for their ability to execute scripts designed to download/install PUAs. As mentioned, unwanted apps are also capable of causing redirects and running intrusive ad campaigns, however, by far their most dangerous ability is data tracking.

They record URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries typed, IP address, geolocations, and other personal details. This data is then sold to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) to illegally generate revenue. To summarize, PUAs can cause browser and system infiltration/infections and lead to serious privacy issues (including identity theft).

To ensure device and user safety, all suspect apps and browser extensions/plug-ins must be removed immediately.

There are thousands of PUAs available on the internet. Most of these rogue applications share certain similarities, and some are even identical. They usually seem legitimate and advertise a wide variety of "useful" features, however, they deliver little or no value.

The only goal of PUAs is to generate revenue for their developers, whilst regular users receive nothing. Rather than delivering on any promises, unwanted apps cause redirects, run intrusive ad campaigns, and collect private data.

How did adware install on my computer?

Once clicked, intrusive ads, can be triggered to execute scripts or make rogue downloads/installs of PUAs. Unwanted applications can also infiltrate devices via the download/installation set-ups of other software. This method of pre-packing regular programs with unwanted content is called "bundling".

By rushing through the download/install processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps and sections, using pre-set options, etc.), users can inadvertently allow unwanted and even malicious software into their systems.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Use official and verified channels for downloading. Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, unofficial or free file-hosting websites, third party downloaders, and similar sources are deemed untrustworthy, and therefore should not be used.

Download/Installation recommendations include: reading terms and exploring possible options, using "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opting/out of downloading/installing additional content. Intrusive ads typically seem ordinary and harmless, however, they often redirect to dubious sites (e.g. pornography, adult-dating, gambling, and so on).

If you encounter these ads/redirects, inspect your system and immediately remove all suspicious applications and/or 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.
