What is News-yeyowu.cc ads?

News-yeyowu.cc is a bogus page trying to monetize user activity by showing them ads

News-yeyowu.ccPop-up ads generated by crooks can lead users to unsafe sites

News-yeyowu.cc is a fake website created by crooks to trick people into subscribing to push notifications. The page is disguised as a verification step. Supposedly, users need to click the “Allow” button to confirm that they are not robots, and they will be able to proceed.

However, by clicking “Allow” users give permission to show them push notifications. They start getting spammed with annoying pop-up ads that can appear even when the browser is closed. Fraudsters may also use rogue advertising networks that place ads leading to dangerous websites.

As a result, people can end up on scam pages that try to lure out personal information, fool them into downloading PUPs (potentially unwanted programs),[1] and even malware. We urge users not to click on any links embedded in the ads even if they seem to be promoting legitimate products.

Usually, people say they start seeing ads promoting adult sites, fake antivirus offers, software deals, giveaways, and surveys. That is why it is important to disable the ads as soon as possible, especially if there are other individuals using the affected machine.

NAME News-yeyowu.cc
TYPE Push notification spam; adware
SYMPTOMS Pop-up ads start appearing in the corner of the screen after the “Allow” button is pressed
DISTRIBUTION Shady websites, deceptive ads, redirects, freeware installations
DANGERS Links embedded in the push notifications can lead to dangerous websites where users can be tricked into providing their personal information and suffer from monetary losses
ELIMINATION Users can block push notifications via browser settings
FURTHER STEPS It is recommended to use a repair tool like FortectIntego after the removal to fix any remaining damage

Distribution methods

Pages, that are generated for the sole purpose of spamming users with pop-ups, do not have any other content. They rarely appear in the search results. Usually, they are hidden on other shady sites that are unregulated. For example, illegal streaming sites are full of deceptive ads and sneaky redirects.

Even though Google said it would get rid of fake “Download” and “Play” buttons,[2] they still exist. If users stumble upon these buttons and click on them, they may be under the impression that if they press “Allow” they will be able to watch the movie or TV show they selected.

It is best to only visit pages that you know and trust. Use legitimate streaming services, like Netflix or Hulu. They require only a small monthly subscription fee and users are able to watch as much content as they want. Some would say that it is costly but keeping your system running smoothly may save you money in the long run.

Clear your browsers

After an encounter with such a website, it is strongly recommended to clear your browsers. Websites and web-based applications can use various tracking technologies to collect data like your IP address, geolocation, websites you visit, links you click on, and things you purchase online. All of this is done with the use of cookies and cache.

These small data files are not inherently bad. Legitimate sites use them to personalize the user experience by showing relevant results, etc. However, they can also be used to generate revenue by selling them to advertising networks, and other third parties. There is an automatic solution to this problem – FortectIntego. This powerful software can stop the tracking and delete the existing information, as well as fix serious system errors with a click of a button.

Check your PC for adware infection

Unwanted browser behavior can also be caused by PUPs. Sometimes pages like News-yeyowu.cc show up without any user input at all. This can be caused by adware[3] which is a program that can generate commercial content in the machine without the users' knowledge. Many of them are disguised as “handy” tools so they would be more difficult to identify for average users.

That is why having professional security tools like SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner and Malwarebytes is essential. A PC without an antivirus is like a home without a door. Anti-malware solutions can scan the machine and detect suspicious processes running in the background.

How to prevent from getting adware

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 Private Internet Access 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, Data Recovery Pro can also help to recover at least some portion of your data after data-locking virus infection or general cyber infection.
