Adslivetraining.com is a fake site that tricks users into subscribing to push notifications only to send intrusive ads later
Adslivetraining.com is one of the many thousand push notification phishing sites that may be found while using Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, or another browser.
This is not how most people recall the name of this website; rather, they remember it because they get distracting pop-up advertisements on their computer screens randomly.
Users are led to the site after clicking a misleading link, where they are then presented with a fake message that urges them to click the "Allow" button on the prompt. People may encounter phishing sites more frequently as a result of adware infestation on their PCs in some circumstances.
It is advisable to avoid clicking on ads from Adslivetraining.com since they may be deceptive or even harmful. Users could see get-rich-quick scams, receive alerts about allegedly found malware, or be tricked into thinking they've won valuable gifts. If you fall for deception, you run the risk of downloading potentially harmful software or malware, losing money, or giving thieves access to your personal data.

Push notifications used by scammers to monetize illegally-inserted ads
A push notification API was created for legitimate uses, just like any other feature.
For instance, a news website may ask visitors whether they would like to get alerts so they can stay up to date on the newest events; this gets their attention much more quickly. Because engagement by users increases, this is also good for the website.
According to Mozilla's research, 99% of push notification requests go unacknowledged, which makes sense given that most users don't particularly like them. The website's ability to deliver a pop-up at any moment might be viewed as being somewhat invasive. Thus, people simply choose not to accept notifications in the first place.
Unlike legitimate websites, which only ask users if they wish to allow notifications, rogue web pages use deceptive language that may convince users to believe anything other than what the prompt actually accomplishes. One of the messages fraudsters use most frequently, for instance, is the following:
It's indeed not difficult to see how someone may mistakenly think that this request is the same as a captcha , for example. Users are just sent to other malicious websites where they would be asked for the same thing, so they may not hesitate to click "Allow" at this stage because they are quite acquainted with the procedure.
In fact, there are thousands of other websites that employ identical messages and images in order to make people subscribe to push notifications unintentionally - Domnews.online, Champse.click, and News-wuweci.cc are mere few websites that do this. if you have subscribed to push notifications from one of these scam sites, the unwanted activities can easily be stopped via browser settings - we explain how below.

Don't forget to check your system for adware

Thus, if you haven't done so yet, you should go ahead and perform a full system scan with or .

Access your website securely from any location
When you work on the domain, site, blog, or different project that requires constant management, content creation, or coding, you may need to connect to the server and content management service more often. The best solution for creating a tighter network could be a dedicated/fixed IP address.
If you make your IP address static and set to your device, you can connect to the CMS from any location and do not create any additional issues for the server or network manager that needs to monitor connections and activities. VPN software providers like can help you with such settings and offer the option to control the online reputation and manage projects easily from any part of the world.
Recover files after data-affecting malware attacks
While much of the data can be accidentally deleted due to various reasons, malware is one of the main culprits that can cause loss of pictures, documents, videos, and other important files.
More serious malware infections lead to significant data loss when your documents, system files, and images get encrypted. In particular, ransomware is is a type of malware that focuses on such functions, so your files become useless without an ability to access them.
Even though there is little to no possibility to recover after file-locking threats, some applications have features for data recovery in the system. In some cases, can also help to recover at least some portion of your data after data-locking virus infection or general cyber infection.
Questions about Adslivetraining.com
Why do I get notifications from adslivetraining.com when the browser is closed?
Chrome and Edge can keep a small part running in the background so that sites can deliver notifications, and Windows shows them in its notification area. That is why messages from adslivetraining.com keep arriving with no browser window open.
The permission to send them was granted when someone clicked Allow on a prompt from that site, often disguised as a robot check or a video player. Closing the browser does not remove it; only the notification settings do.
Remove adslivetraining.com from the allowed sites and the background messages stop. You can also stop the browser from running in the background in its system settings, but the permission is the real fix.
I clicked a notification from adslivetraining.com. What should I do?
If you only opened the page and closed it, nothing else is needed besides removing the permission from adslivetraining.com. If the page asked for card details, a phone number or a password and you entered them, act on that: call the bank to block the card, or change the password from another device.
If it offered a download, delete the file unopened, or uninstall it from Installed apps if you ran it, then run a full scan. If you called a number shown on the page, follow the steps for callers in this guide. Finally, remove the permission so that no more messages arrive.
Why does Adslivetraining.com show me ads?
Because that is its whole purpose. Adslivetraining.com is a push-notification spam site, and its operators are paid for every ad it displays and every click it gets. In this case the ads take the form of desktop notifications.
They are chosen by ad networks that accept almost any advertiser, which is why so many look like warnings or prizes. The ads are not a sign that your PC is broken or infected with something worse; they are a sign that something on it, or in the browser, has permission to advertise. Removing that permission or program stops them.
Is adslivetraining.com safe to visit?
No. The site adslivetraining.com exists to push visitors towards ads, and the pages it leads to include fake virus warnings, fake updates, prize scams and notification prompts. Visiting it once does not infect an up-to-date PC, but anything you click or download there is a gamble.
Do not enter personal details, do not allow notifications and do not call phone numbers it shows. If it opens by itself, close the tab and check the browser's extensions and notification permissions. Blocking the single domain helps little, because the operators register new names regularly.
Which browser is sending the adslivetraining.com notifications?
Each notification shows the name of the browser and the site in its small print. In the cases we saw, the messages from adslivetraining.com came through Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Permissions are stored per browser and per profile, so removing the site in one browser does not affect another.
If you use several Chrome or Edge profiles, check each one. If you sync the browser with an account, remove the permission while signed in, otherwise another computer may still hold it and keep receiving the same messages.
How do I know the ads come from Adslivetraining.com?
Look for notifications from adslivetraining.com. That is the trace Adslivetraining.com leaves, and it shows up as desktop notifications. Ads that appear on every site, including ones that never carried ads before, point to something on your PC or in the browser rather than to the sites themselves.
A quick test is a private window, where extensions are off by default: if the ads disappear there, an extension is responsible. If they appear even with the browser closed, the source is a notification permission or a program in Windows.
Did clicking Allow install anything on my PC?
No. Allowing notifications stores a permission in the browser and nothing else. No file is downloaded and no program is added to Windows, which is also why antivirus scans find nothing. The risk comes later, from the notifications themselves: they lead to scam pages, fake updates and phishing forms.
Remove the permission in each browser where you allowed it. If you clicked a notification and downloaded something afterwards, delete that file and run a Microsoft Defender full scan and offline scan.
I clicked on one of the ads. Am I infected?
Probably not. Clicking an ad usually only opens a page, and a page cannot install programs on an up-to-date Windows PC without your help.
You are at risk only if you then downloaded and ran a file, allowed notifications, entered card or login details, or called a phone number shown on the page. Delete any download and run a full and offline scan.
Change passwords you typed, from a clean device. Call your bank if you gave card details. If you called a number or allowed remote access, see the next question.
An ad showed a phone number and I called it. What now?
The number belongs to scammers, not to Microsoft or an antivirus company. If you only talked, hang up and do not call back. If you let them connect to the PC, disconnect it from the internet, uninstall the remote access program they used, such as AnyDesk, TeamViewer, ScreenConnect or UltraViewer, and run a full and offline scan.
If you paid or gave bank details, call your bank at once on the number printed on your card. Change any passwords you typed while they were connected, and report the call.
Will Fortect remove Adslivetraining.com?
No program removes Adslivetraining.com itself, because there is nothing on the PC to remove: the notifications come through a permission saved in the browser, and only the browser's settings take it away, as the steps above show.
What Fortect can do is check the rest of Windows. Its free scan looks for malware, unwanted programs and damaged system files, which is useful if you clicked the ads, downloaded something from the pages they opened, or are not sure what else changed on the PC.
If the scan finds nothing and the notifications stopped after you removed the permission, this problem is solved. Use Microsoft Defender as a second opinion whenever you have downloaded files from pages like these.
