What are Loadprecisehighlyfile pop-ups?
Loadprecisehighlyfile popups are an effect of adware presence. Adware is a kind of malware that demonstrates to you the pay-per-view of pay-per-click promotions, which generates a substantial amount of income for adware distributors. These ads might include explicit information, or have a web link to malevolent content/website, considering that adware maintainers have no purpose to examine the goodness of the content they are going to reveal – their solitary target is money.
Pop-up promotions itself is an excellent, low-cost and very effective advertising method1. It allows the vendor to link the customers’ attention to their site, and the buyers to receive the dynamic updates on the goods they intend to purchase. When the consumer will get a pop-up alert that the TV set he desires to purchase is offered at the online store he/she visited earlier with a 15% price cut, one will certainly use this possibility and get it. Taking into consideration the extremely low price for the popups and their targeting, such a promotion and marketing method is a favorite thing amidst the advertising departments of large online retailers.
Nevertheless, such a profitable strategy could not be missed by virus developers. Potential to show the popup advertisements by force to the targets of malware attack is a great basis for malicious adjustments with the popup promotions. And Loadprecisehighlyfile.digital advertisements is just one of hundreds that are “employed” in this system.

When the browsers are reset, you need to ensure that your browser will connect the correct DNS while connecting to the website you want. Create a text file named “hosts” on your pc’s desktop, after that open it and fill it with the following content3:
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#’ symbol.
#
# For example:

# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handle within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost

Nevertheless, there is one problem that makes things much harder to fix, particularly without the anti-malware program. The majority of adware versions that are used to show you the Loadprecisehighlyfile pop-up promotions are modifying the deep browser configurations, disabling an access to the settings tab. So, if you attempt to fix your browser settings after your computer was infected by pop-up-related malware, your browser will collapse soon.

Browser will stop reacting for ~ 30 secs, and after that it will be back to the normal, up until you try to open settings once again.
