Potentially unwanted applications in general

Yourhotfeed[.]com is an untrustworthy website that can open malicious websites and show dubious advertisements. Most users open websites of this type unintentionally. It is worth mentioning that users rarely install PUAs designed to promote pages like yourhotfeed[.]com on purpose.

How did adware install on my computer?

Users download and install potentially unwanted applications together with other programs, by clicking advertisements designed to run certain scripts or through fake installers. It is common for PUAs to be distributed by including them in downloaders or installers as optional offers.

Users agree to download or install PUAs together with other programs when they download or install them without changing "Manual", "Custom", or other settings. It is important to mention that fake installers can be used to distribute malicious programs.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Advertisements on questionable websites can be designed to open untrustworthy websites or cause unwanted downloads, installations. They should not be trusted/clicked. Downloaders and installers that have ticked checkboxes, "Advanced", "Custom" or other settings should be examined - they can include optional downloads or installations.

Programs (and files) should be downloaded from official websites and through direct links. 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.
