News-yutito.cc pop-up advertisements appear when you do not expect, detracting and annoying you. Still, that is slightly more than annoying notifications – their origins is clearly malicious, and they can bring other malicious stuff to your computer. In this article, I will show you the guide how to remove News-yutito.cc push notifications and explain how to avoid them in the future.
Any interaction with News-yutito.cc pop-up advertisements will be useless at best. At worst, the web pages it can show you can introduce malware to your system. These pop-ups can also promote fake shopping websites 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-yutito.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 pop-ups and News-yutito.cc notifications is the malicious origins of the latter. Normal pop-up advertisements are offered for you to enable with a straightforward purpose – notify you about the fresh articles, goods for sale and so on. It is a useful thing to help your website to retain visitors and help the interested users to have the best deal.

News-yutito.cc pop-up notifications, on the other hand, are related to less legit sites. You will generally see the proposition to turn them on after a redirection from another website. It’s OK to see redirects unless it throws you into such a questionable place. At that point, enabling pop-up advertisements is served under the guise of the anti-bot check-up. Alternatively, the web pages can refuse to show you the contents unless you enable these pop-up ads. These demands should raise suspicion, as sites generally feature a less obscure anti-bot mechanism. Seeing such an requirement is a reason to skip the website doubtlessly. In some cases, even when you click “Allow”, you will not get to the web page – it has only a landing page with the offer to turn on the pop-up ads.
How does this work?
Most of browsers support enabling push notifications from sites. Sites, on the other hand, can send notifications with the content they like. It can be a promotion of the page posted on this website, or an ad of the page of their partner. As a result, you may see the push notification from site X, but opening it will throw you to site Y – because a link to that website was added.
Crooks rely on this ability in their approach to gain money using illegal advertising. They trick victims into allowing the pop-ups, and then just spread hundreds of ads of anyone they have a deal with. As you may suppose, no legit organisations will have a deal with fraudsters. All the News-yutito.cc popups you can see lead to other fraudulent sites. In some cases, the same victim may be trapped by multiple pop-up spamming sites, and its browser will turn into a complete mess.
The banners these rascals show are paid under the pay-per-view model. It commonly provides a miserable commission for one view, but when you can send ads to a huge number of users and show them hundreds of ads each day – that is a much more significant sum. Even though the majority of such banners are ineffective, it can still bring all the parties a lot of money.
Are News-yutito.cc pop-up advertisements dangerous?
Yes, they are. At the surface, they can look harmless – just a colourful pop-up that appears a couple times in an hour. However, the things this window promotes differ drastically from what you generally see in push notifications. News-yutito.cc website is controlled by fraudsters, who deliberately spread hundreds of irrelevant ads in pop-ups. They also don’t follow any common sense and can launch sporadic pop-up ads into a storm of promotions. For weak systems, that may be enough to make the system slower. But that is not all problems these push notifications carry.
As with any other thing related to illegal ads, News-yutito.cc pop-up advertisements do not contain any legit offers. Even when crooks make the banners looking similar to ones from Amazon, Walmart or Ebay, 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-up notifications 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-yutito.cc pop-up notifications are not recommended to click on either, and the best solution is to disable them as soon as possible.
How to remove News-yutito.cc pop-ups?
Fortunately, News-yutito.cc pop-up advertisements removal is not very complicated. They reside in the browser and can’t hide themselves in the system.

Therefore, after removing the source of the pop-ups it is recommended to use anti-malware software. This step is especially recommended if you have never allowed pop-up ads, but they still appeared.

When the browsers are reset, you need to ensure that your browser will connect the right DNS while connecting to the site 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.
