Escribeda[.]xyz and other pages of this type in general

Escribeda[.]xyz and similar pages are promoted through other shady websites, advertisements, and potentially unwanted applications. It is worth mentioning that most users download and install PUAs inadvertently. It is very common for apps of this kind to be distributed or promoted using questionable methods.

How did adware install on my computer?

Potentially unwanted applications are distributed by including them in downloaders, installers for other programs, through certain advertisements, fake installers. The first distribution method is known as "bundling". It works when users download or install programs without deselecting optional downloads or installations.

Usually, PUAs can be deselected in "Manual", "Advanced", "Custom", and other similar settings, or by unticking ticked checkboxes that downloaders, installers have. Ads can cause unwanted downloads or installations when they are designed to run certain scripts.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Questionable, unofficial websites, third-party downloaders, third-party installers, Peer-to-Peer networks can be used to distribute PUAs. Thus, files and apps should be downloaded from official websites and via direct links. Advertisements on questionable pages should not be clicked as well.

Downloaders and installers that have any settings (like "Custom", "Advanced"), or ticked checkboxes should be checked for optional downloads or installations. They should be deselected before downloading or installing programs. 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.
