News-paduye.cc push notifications appear when you do not expect, disturbing and annoying you. Nonetheless, they are slightly more than annoying notifications – their nature is clearly malicious, and they can introduce other malicious stuff to your system. In this article, I will guide you on how to remove News-paduye.cc pop-ups and explain how to avoid them in the future.
Any interaction with News-paduye.cc pop-up notifications will be ineffective at best. In worst case scenario, the sites it can open can introduce malware to your system. These pop-up advertisements may also promote fake shopping sites which will take your money and payment info. The latter generally ends up with losing all the money you have on the exposed card.
What are News-paduye.cc pop-up notifications?
As the pop-up definition goes, these are short and small advertisements that attract your attention to a product they promote. But the difference between regular push notifications and News-paduye.cc pop-ups is the malignant origins of the latter. Common pop-up advertisements are offered for you to enable with a straightforward purpose – notify you about the new publications, goods for sale and so on. It is a useful thing to help your site to keep visitors and help the interested users to have the best price.

News-paduye.cc push notifications, on the other hand, have a deal with unlegit web pages. You will commonly see the offer to turn them on following the redirection from another site. It’s OK to see redirects unless they throw you into such a questionable place. In this case, enabling pop-up ads is served under the guise of the anti-bot check. In other cases, the websites can deny showing you the contents unless you apply these pop-up ads. These demands should already raise suspicion, as websites generally have a different anti-bot mechanism. Spectating this demand should be the reason to leave the website doubtlessly. In some cases, even after clicking “Allow”, you will not get to the site – the sole page it has is a landing page with the offer to turn on the push notifications.
How does this work?
The vast majority of browsers support turning on push notifications from websites. Sites, on the other hand, may send out notifications with the content they like. It can be an advertisement of the product published on this particular website, as well as an ad of their partner page. As a result, you may see the push notification from site X, but clicking it will throw you to site Y – because a link to that website was built in.
Crooks rely on this ability in their attempt to earn money using illegal advertising. They trick victims into allowing them to show the banners, and after that just spread hundreds of banners of anyone they have a deal with. As you may suppose, no legit companies will have a deal with fraudsters. All the News-paduye.cc popups you may see lead to other fraudulent sites. In some cases, the same victim may get into a trap of multiple pop-up spamming websites, and its browser will turn into a complete mess.
The banners these rascals show are paid under the pay-per-view model. It usually provides a negligible commission for one person, but when you have a huge number of users and make it hundreds of times every day – that is a much more significant sum. Even though most of such ads are ineffective, it may still give all the participants a lot of money.
Are News-paduye.cc pop-up advertisements dangerous?
Yes, they are. At the surface, they may look non-threatening – just a blinking pop-up that appears from time to time. However, the contents of this window differ drastically from what you generally see in pop-up notifications. News-paduye.cc website is ruled by fraudsters, who intentionally spread hundreds and thousands of irrelevant ads in pop-ups. They also don’t follow any common sense and can launch sporadic pop-up notifications into a hurricane of promotions. For weak systems, that may be enough to cause performance issues. But that is not all problems these pop-ups carry.
As with any other thing that touches illegal advertising, News-paduye.cc push notifications lack legit offers. Even when hackers make the banners similar to ones from well-known retailers, the site these banners will throw you to are completely different. And these pages may 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-paduye.cc pop-ups are not recommended to click on either, and the best solution is to disable them as soon as possible.
How to remove News-paduye.cc pop-ups?
Fortunately, News-paduye.cc push notifications removal is pretty easy. They sit in the web browser and cannot conceal themselves in the system. Nevertheless, as I pointed out above, some pop-up notifications can introduce malware to your system. It is nearly impossible to show all of the cases, and manual attempts to remove malware is a poor idea. Therefore, after removing the source of the push notifications it is recommended to use anti-malware software. This step is especially recommended if you have never allowed push notifications, but they still appeared. This situation can point at malicious software activity.

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.
