How to stop browsers from opening brotherenuryc.pro

What is brotherenuryc[.]pro?

Typically, rogue web pages such as brotherenuryc[.]pro are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are installed on browsers and/or operating systems. Examples of other websites of this type include trendyarticle[.]com, newscoder7[.]com and twok[.]pro.

When visited, they load dubious content or open other untrusted web pages. PUAs usually gather various browsing-related data and/or feed users with unwanted ads. Note that people do not often download or install PUAs intentionally.

When opened, brotherenuryc[.]pro loads dubious content or opens more (about two or three) untrusted websites. These actions depend on visitors' geolocations. Websites of this type often demand permission to show notifications using 'clickbait' techniques.

This particular website suggests that a file can be downloaded only if visitors click the "Allow" button. In fact, clicking it allows this page to show notifications that might contain deceptive advertisements, links to potentially malicious pages, and so on. Therefore, never grant permission for websites such as brotherenuryc[.]pro to show notifications.

Apps that open these pages usually gather data and display ads. Typically, they record IP addresses, geolocations, entered search queries, URLs of visited websites and other browsing data. Some PUAs might gather personal, sensitive information as well. Developers sell the details to third parties (cyber criminals) or misuse them in other ways.

Furthermore, many PUAs feed users with unwanted ads such as coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, and others. When clicked, these ads execute scripts that cause download/installation of PUAs or simply redirect to deceptive, potentially malicious or untrusted websites.

PUAs also cause problems with browsing safety, privacy, and lead to unwanted downloads and installations. In some cases, they might be used to steal users' identities. Therefore, never download/install or trust any PUAs.

PUAs are often advertised as legitimate, useful programs, however, few operate as promoted. Generally, they are designed only to help developers to generate revenue by collecting data, serving advertisements and forcing people to visit dubious websites. Remove all PUAs from browsers and computers immediately.

How did adware install on my computer?

Most users download and install apps of this type inadvertently. PUAs are downloaded and/or installed through deceptive ads that execute certain scripts, however, this mostly happens during download/installation of other (usually free) software. I.e., when PUAs are included into download/installation set-ups as additional offers.

This PUA distribution method with other software is called "bundling". Information about additionally-included apps is often not properly disclosed and hidden in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings of the set-ups.

Furthermore, many people often download and install software without changing the settings, thereby allowing additionally-included apps to be downloaded and installed.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

We recommend that you download files and software only from official, trustworthy websites, and via direct download links. Avoid other tools, sources such as third party downloaders (and installers), Peer-to-Peer networks (e.g., torrent clients, eMule), dubious pages and so on - they could be used to distribute unwanted or even malicious software.

Check all "Custom", "Advanced", "Manual" and other settings when downloading or installing software. Opt-out of any offers to download or install unwanted apps, and only then complete the setup. Furthermore, do not click ads that are displayed on pages relating to gambling, pornography, adult dating, etc.

The best option is not to click any intrusive ads at all. If your browser shows unwanted ads or opens dubious web pages, uninstall all suspicious extensions, add-ons and plug-ins from the browser.

The same applies to programs of this kind that are 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.

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.
