Avoid visiting notification-centar.com

What is notification-centar[.]com?

notification-centar[.]com is virtually identical to windowsguidenews[.]com, robotornotcheckonline[.]club, reforeperc[.]pro, and many other websites. It redirects visitors to other rogue sites or displays dubious content.

Generally, people do not open notification-centar[.]com (or other websites of this kind) intentionally - browsers open them when potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) are installed. Typically, PUAs open dubious web pages, display advertisements, and collect data relating to browsing activity.

When opened, notification-centar[.]com asks permission to show notifications. It states that, by allowing notifications, visitors are able to watch a video. Note, however, that giving websites such as notification-centar[.]com permission to show notifications usually results in being served with advertisements and other dubious content.

As mentioned, once visited, web pages such as notification-centar[.]com display dubious content or redirect visitors to a number of other (about two or three) untrustworthy websites. These actions depend on the visitors' geolocations. It is very likely that opened web pages might be designed to advertise dubious software, contain deceptive ads, and so on.

Neither notification-centar[.]com nor pages opened through it can be trusted. Furthermore, most PUAs feed users with coupons, banners, pop-up ads, and other intrusive advertisements. These usually conceal underlying content of visited websites and, if clicked, redirect people to other untrustworthy or even malicious websites.

In some cases, the ads execute scripts that download and/or install unwanted apps. Furthermore, PUAs record data such as IP addresses, search queries, URLs of visited websites, geolocations and other browsing-related data. They might also be designed to collect personal details.

Developers of these apps often share the data with third parties (potentially cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue. Users can thus experience problems with privacy, browsing safety or even become victims of identity theft. Therefore, all applications of this type should be uninstalled immediately.

Typically, developers promote these apps by offering supposedly useful features, tools, and so on. In fact, most PUAs do not function as advertised and are designed only to help the developers to generate revenue. Having them installed can lead to a number of problems. PUAs should never be trusted or downloaded/installed.

How did adware install on my computer?

Frequently, people download and install unwanted apps of this kind through intrusive advertisements or when they are included into the set-ups of other (usually free) software. In summary, developers proliferate PUAs by hiding them in "Custom", "Advanced" and other settings of the download/installation set-ups of regular software.

Information about the inclusion of unwanted apps into set-ups is not properly disclosed. People who leave these settings unchecked and unchanged, unintentionally allow PUAs to be downloaded and/or installed together with regular programs. This distribution method of unwanted apps is known as "bundling".

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Download all software only from official websites. Do not use third party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks (torrent clients, eMule) or other similar sources to download or install software. Check "Custom", "Advanced", and other similar settings that are usually included in the download and/or installation set-ups, and dismiss offers to download/install unwanted apps.

Do not click advertisements that are displayed on dubious web pages - they often cause unwanted downloads/installations, or lead to untrustworthy websites. Check for unwanted, suspicious extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins installed on the web browser and uninstall them immediately.

Also apply this to programs of this kind installed on 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.

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.
