What is Cms100.xyz ads?

Cms100.xyz shows a deceptive message to get users to click on the “Allow” button

Cms100.xyzClicking "Allow" adds users to the push notification subscriber list

Cms100.xyz is a fake website that was created by crooks. The main goal of this page is to generate revenue from pay-per-click advertising.[1] It displays a deceptive message asking users to click “Allow” if they are over 18 to access the content. However, there is no content to explore on this site.

Users start getting spammed with annoying pop-up ads that can appear even when the browser is closed. Crooks may be using rogue advertising networks[2] that place ads leading to scam pages. On these dangerous websites, people can get tricked into providing personal information, downloading PUPs (potentially unwanted programs),[3] and even malware.

Distribution of push notification spam sites

There are thousands of pages just like Cms100.xyz. They are easy to create and duplicate. They may also become a good passive income source as crooks can get paid for every click users make. To avoid them it is important to know how they are spread on the Internet.

Usually, they are placed behind deceptive ads and sneaky redirects on other shady sites. That is why we recommend only visiting websites that you know and trust. Do not use illegal streaming pages because they are unregulated. They may display fake “Download” and “Play” buttons.[4]

It is also worth noting that the appearance of spam sites could be also explained by an adware infection. It operates in the background without the users' knowledge and causes an increased amount of commercial content, like pop-ups, banners, and redirects.

Protect your data while browsing

You have probably noticed, that almost every website you visit asks to “Allow” cookies. They are small data files that can track data, like your IP address, geolocation, websites you visit, links you click on, and things you purchase online. Generally, this is not a bad thing as it helps websites to personalize the user experience.

However, fraudsters can use this information to make a profit. Cookies can be sold to advertising networks or other third parties. If the pages you visit do not have strong security, cookies can also be hijacked and used for malicious purposes.

That is why it is important to clear your browsers regularly. This can be automated with a maintenance tool like FortectIntego. It can delete all cookies and cache and fix system damage, like errors, and registry issues which is especially helpful after a virus infection.

Adware removal

Once you block the notifications, there is still a chance that there is adware hiding in your system. You might be experiencing an increased amount of commercial content like surveys, banners, pop-ups, and redirects. We strongly suggest deploying professional security tools like SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes to scan your machine if you have any of these symptoms.

Antivirus software can detect suspicious processes running on your machine and eliminate all the related files. What is more, it can prevent such infections in the future by warning you about a suspicious download. You can also remove programs manually, but it can be difficult to identify PUPs as they are often disguised as “handy” tools that you use every day.

It may look like antivirus software, system optimizer, media player, etc. Besides, manual removal can sometimes result in a renewal of the infection, as people fail to eliminate all the related files and entries. Otherwise, if you want to perform manual removal, you can follow the instructions posted below for Windows and Mac systems:

How to prevent from getting adware

Do not let government spy on you

The government has many issues in regards to tracking users' data and spying on citizens, so you should take this into consideration and learn more about shady information gathering practices. Avoid any unwanted government tracking or spying by going totally anonymous on the internet. 

You can choose a different location when you go online and access any material you want without particular content restrictions. You can easily enjoy internet connection without any risks of being hacked by using Private Internet Access VPN.

Control the information that can be accessed by government any other unwanted party and surf online without being spied on. Even if you are not involved in illegal activities or trust your selection of services, platforms, be suspicious for your own security and take precautionary measures by using the VPN service.

Backup files for the later use, in case of the malware attack

Computer users can suffer from data losses due to cyber infections or their own faulty doings. Ransomware can encrypt and hold files hostage, while unforeseen power cuts might cause a loss of important documents. If you have proper up-to-date backups, you can easily recover after such an incident and get back to work. It is also equally important to update backups on a regular basis so that the newest information remains intact – you can set this process to be performed automatically.

When you have the previous version of every important document or project you can avoid frustration and breakdowns. It comes in handy when malware strikes out of nowhere. Use Data Recovery Pro for the data restoration process.
