News-jazudi.cc pop-up notifications, on the other hand, are related to untrustworthy websites. You will commonly witness the proposition to enable them following the redirection from another website. It’s OK to see redirects unless it throws you to such a questionable place. At that point, turning on push notifications is offered under the guise of the anti-DDoS check. In other cases, the web pages may deny showing you the content unless you enable these pop-up notifications. These theses should be the red flag, as websites commonly have a different anti-bot mechanism. Seeing this demand is a reason to close the page right away. In some cases, even after clicking “Allow”, you will not get to the website – it has only a landing page with the offer to turn on the pop-up notifications.
News-jazudi.cc push notification.
How does it work?
The vast majority of web browsers support turning on pop-ups from sites. Websites, on the other hand, may send notifications with the content of their choice. It may be an advertisement of the product or a page published on this website, as well as an ad of their partner page. As a result, you may see the pop-up from site X, but clicking it will throw you to website Y – because a link to that website was added.
Cybercriminals rely on this ability in their approach to gain money using illegal advertising. They trick victims into turning on pop-ups, and then just spread numerous ads of anyone they have a deal with. As you may suppose, no legit companies will have a deal with fraudsters. All the News-jazudi.cc notifications you may see lead to other untrustworthy sites. At some point, the same victim may get into a trap of several pop-up spamming sites, and its web browser will turn into a complete mess.
The promotions these crooks show are paid under the pay-per-view model. It generally provides a negligible payment for one person, but when you have hundreds of victims and show them hundreds of ads each day – that is a way bigger sum. Even though most of such ads are ineffective, it can still bring all the participants a lot of money.
Are News-jazudi.cc pop-up ads dangerous?
Yes, they are. Initially, they can look non-threatening – just a colourful pop-up that appears a couple times in an hour. However, the things this window promotes differ sharply from what you generally see in pop-up ads. News-jazudi.cc website is ruled by fraudsters, who intendedly throw hundreds and thousands of malicious ads in pop-ups. They also never follow any common sense and can make sporadic pop-ups into a hurricane of promotions. For weak systems, that may be enough to cause performance issues. But that is not all problems these pop-up notifications carry.
As any other thing related to illegal advertising, News-jazudi.cc pop-up ads lack legit offers. Even though hackers make the banners similar to ones from well-known retailers, the web page these banners will throw you to are completely different. And these pages can offer you to turn on other pop-ups, install a “useful” program, or pay for a thing at a big discount and never receive it. Let’s leave aside the cases when pop-ups promote phishing pages or straightforward malware. There’s no way these pages will bring you any good, thus interacting with them is a very bad idea. For the same reason, News-jazudi.cc pop-up advertisements are not recommended to click on either, and the best solution is to disable them as soon as possible.
How to remove News-jazudi.cc pop-ups?
Fortunately, News-jazudi.cc pop-up notifications removal is pretty easy. They parasite in the browser and cannot hide themselves among system files.

Therefore, after disabling the push notifications it is recommended to use anti-malware software.

When the browsers are reset, you need to ensure that your browser will connect the right DNS while connecting to the web page you need. Create a text file titled “hosts” on your pc’s desktop, then open it and fill it with the following lines2:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp.
#
# 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
# ::1 localhost
Find the hosts.txt file in C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc directory. Rename this file to “hosts.old.txt” (to distinguish it from the new one), and then move the file you created on the desktop to this folder. Remove the hosts.old from this folder. Now you have your hosts file as good as new.
