Music-home[.]info website in general

Music-home[.]info is not a trustworthy page. Most users open websites like this one unintentionally. Usually, these pages get opened through clicked untrustworthy ads, visited questionable pages, or installed PUAs.

How did adware install on my computer?

Users download or install PUAs when they download or install programs without deselecting optional downloads or installations. It can be achieved using available "Manual", "Advanced", or other settings that downloaders and (or) installers for programs bundled with PUAs have.

Also, users download or install PUAs by clicking on advertisements designed to execute certain scripts or through fake installers downloaded from deceptive web pages. Either way, most users download and install PUAs unintentionally.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download applications and files from legitimate, trustworthy sources such as official websites and platforms. Check downloaders and installers for optional downloads or installations. Avoid clicking advertisements that questionable websites have on them and downloading files from unreliable sources.

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