How to stop redirects to and from cenesserie.fun

What is cenesserie[.]fun site?

cenesserie[.]fun is a rogue website sharing many similarities with indexspotcaptcha.com, nlyimprese.fun, atinterboa.space and countless others. Visitors to this page are presented with dubious content and are redirected to other untrustworthy or possibly malicious sites.

Few visitors access cenesserie[.]fun or other similar websites intentionally - most are redirected to them by intrusive ads or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs). This software does not require explicit consent to infiltrate systems, and thus users may be unaware of its presence. PUAs cause redirects, run intrusive advertisement campaigns and collect browsing-related information.

When accessed, cenesserie[.]fun checks visitors' IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to learn their geolocations. This data is crucial to determining the website's further course of action. Therefore, whether visitors are redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with dubious material depends on their geolocations.

Furthermore, most rogue websites use deceptive techniques to trick visitors into enabling their browser notifications. The cenesserie[.]fun web page is no exception to this - it implies that, to access the page, notifications must be allowed. Should they be enabled, the site starts running intrusive ad campaigns. The delivered ads are more than just a nuisance, they also pose a threat to device/user safety. Once clicked, intrusive advertisements redirect to various dubious/malicious websites and some can even stealthily download/install software.

PUAs are a prime example of software infiltrated into systems in this manner. These applications can have dangerous functionality and the functions can be in different combinations. For example, they can deliver intrusive ad campaigns and force-open dubious/dangerous pages.

Furthermore, most PUAs (regardless of other capabilities) can track data. They can monitor browsing activity (URLs visited, web pages viewed, search queries typed, etc.) and gather sensitive information extracted from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details). The collected data usually contains personally identifiable information. PUA developers monetize this information by sharing it with and/or selling it to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals).

In summary, the presence of unwanted apps on devices can result in system infections, serious privacy issues, financial loss and even identity theft.

To ensure device and user safety, all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins must be removed immediately upon detection.

PUAs may seem legitimate and innocuous, and users are often enticed into download/installation with offers of various "useful" functionality, however, the advertised functions are seldom operational. The only purpose of this unwanted software is to generate revenue for the developers.

Rather than delivering any real value, PUAs run intrusive advertisement campaigns, cause redirects and collect private data.

How did adware install on my computer?

PUAs are distributed via download/installation set-ups of other products. This deceptive marketing tactic of packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions is called "bundling". Rushing download/installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps and settings, etc.) increases the risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content into the system.

Some PUAs have "official" download sites. Intrusive advertisements proliferate these applications as well. Once clicked, they can execute scripts to download/install PUAs without users' consent.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

You are advised to research all software before download/installation or purchase. All downloads must be done from official and verified sources, since dubious channels such as unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks and other third party downloaders commonly offer deceptive or bundled content.

When downloading/installing, read the terms, explore all possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of supplementary apps, tools, features, etc. Intrusive ads may seem normal and harmless, however, they can redirect to various dubious web pages (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating, and many others).

If you encounter ads or redirects of this kind, inspect the system and remove any suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately.

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.
