Paymentsweb[.]org page in general

Paymentsweb[.]org and similar websites cannot be trusted. The same applies to notifications that they can display. Usually, these pages are promoted via shady ads, other websites of this kind, or potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

How did adware install on my computer?

Users often download and install PUAs when they download or install programs without checking and changing "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings available in downloaders and installers. A big part of PUAs is distributed by bundling them with other programs.

In other cases, users download and install PUAs by clicking on advertisements designed to run specific scripts or through fake installers downloaded from untrustworthy pages.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download applications (and files) from legitimate/official pages. Avoid using P2P networks, unofficial sites, and similar channels/sources for downloading files. Do not download or install programs without checking their downloaders or installers for "Advanced", "Manual, "Custom" or other settings.

Also, do not click on advertisements that dubious pages have on them. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
