How to stop redirects to and from sionremai.fun

What is sionremai[.]fun website?

sionremai[.]fun is a rogue web page designed to present visitors with dubious material and/or redirect them to other untrusted or possibly malicious sites. The internet is rife with these sites - thehugefeed.com, titionasses.fun, and rymothere.fun are just some examples.

Typically, users enter websites of this kind unintentionally. Most are redirected to them by intrusive ads or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already installed on their systems. This software operates by causing redirects, running intrusive advertisement campaigns, and collecting browsing-related information.

The behavior of sionremai[.]fun is determined by visitors' geolocations. The web page learns this data by checking their IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. Therefore, whether visitors are redirected elsewhere and/or are presented with dubious content depends on their geolocations

In addition, most of these untrusted sites use deceptive techniques (e.g. 'clickbait') to trick visitors into allowing their browser notifications. This is the case with sionremai[.]fun, which implies that users must enable the notifications to enter the page: "Please tap the Allow button to continue". Should these browser notifications be enabled, the website starts running intrusive advertisement 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 sites and some can even stealthily download/install software (e.g. PUAs).

These unwanted applications can have varied functions and these capabilities can be in different combinations. For example, the apps can force-open untrusted/dangerous websites and/or deliver intrusive ad campaigns.

Furthermore, most PUAs (regardless of type) can track data. They can record browsing activity (URLs visited, pages viewed, search queries typed, etc.) and collect personal information extracted from it (IP addresses, geolocations and other details). The gathered data is then monetized by sharing with and/or selling to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals), likewise intent on misusing it for profit.

In summary, the presence of unwanted software on devices can lead to system infections, financial loss, serious privacy issues and even identity theft. Therefore, you are strongly advised to remove all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

PUAs may seem legitimate and harmless, and users are enticed into download/installation with offers of various "useful" features, however, the advertised functionality is usually nonoperational. The only purpose of these unwanted apps is to generate revenue for the developers.

PUAs cause redirects, run intrusive advertisement campaigns, and collect private information.

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.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
