How to uninstall apps that open mypushz.com and similar sites

What is mypushz[.]com?

mypushz[.]com is an untrusted page which opens other pages of this kind or displays dubious content. There are many web pages similar to mypushz[.]com online. Some examples are beforeigntools[.]club, readnewmessage[.]com and uptoabc[.]com.

People do not often visit them intentionally - they are opened through other dubious sites, deceptive advertisements, or by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

PUAs open pages such as mypushz[.]com in a new browser window or tab. The sites then load dubious content or open two or three other untrusted sites (this depends on the visitor's geolocation). These pages often attempt to trick visitors into allowing them to show notifications using 'clickbait' techniques.

This particular site suggests that visitors must click the "Allow" button to continue the streaming process. Never allow pages such as mypushz[.]com to show notifications, since, in most cases, the notifications contain deceptive ads, links to untrusted pages, etc. Commonly, PUAs also serve advertisements and collect data.

They often display coupons, banners, pop-ups, surveys and other types of ads. These open other untrusted, potentially malicious websites or download and install unwanted, potentially malicious software by executing certain scripts. PUAs record geolocations, entered search queries, addresses of visited websites, IP addresses and other browsing data.

Some can access personal, sensitive details as well. The developers misuse the information to generate revenue by selling it to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) or in other ways. Therefore, having these apps installed on browsers and/or operating systems can cause problems relating to browsing safety, online privacy or even identity theft.

In most cases, potentially unwanted applications are advertised as legitimate, useful, etc. In fact, most are designed only to open dubious pages, collect browsing-related details, and display advertisements. I.e., they are designed only to generate revenue for the developers and can cause serious issues. Therefore, these apps should never be downloaded or installed.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are often downloaded/installed together with other products. This deceptive marketing technique of pre-packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions is called "bundling".

By rushing through download/installation (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps and sections, using "Quick/Express" settings, etc.), many users risk unintentionally allowing bundled content into their devices. Intrusive advertisements proliferate PUAs as well.

When clicked, the ads can execute scripts to download/install these applications without users' permission. Some PUAs have "official" download web pages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

Download software and files from official websites and via direct links. It is not safe to use torrent clients, eMule (or other Peer-to-Peer networks), third party downloaders, unofficial websites or other sources of this kind. Avoid third party installers. Check "Advanced", "Custom" and other settings, and decline offers to download or install unwanted software.

Do not click ads that are displayed on dubious websites, since they can open other untrusted websites or even cause unwanted downloads and installations. Remove any unwanted, suspicious applications (extensions, add-ons, and plug-ins) that are installed on the browser.

The same should be applied 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.

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.
