What are Saniceproxic pop-up advertisements?

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 Saniceproxic notifications is the malicious origins of the latter. Common pop-up notifications are offered for you to enable with a legitimate purpose – keep you aware about the fresh publications, discounts and so on. It is a useful thing to help your site to keep visitors and help the interested visitors to have the best deal.

Brief summary of the Saniceproxic.com pop-up ads:

Saniceproxic pop-up notifications, in contrast, have a deal with less legit sites. You will generally observe the offer to enable them after a redirection from another site. It’s OK to see redirects unless it throws you to such a dubious place. At that point, turning on pop-up advertisements is offered as the anti-bot check-up. Alternatively, the sites may refuse to show you the content unless you apply these pop-up ads. These requirements should raise suspicion, as sites commonly have a different anti-bot mechanism. Witnessing this demand is a reason to close the website doubtlessly. Sometimes, even when you click “Allow”, you will not get to the site – it has only a landing page with the offer to turn on the pop-ups.

Saniceproxic push notification.

How does this work?

The vast majority of web browsers support enabling push notifications from websites. Sites, on the other hand, may send notifications with the content they like. It can be an advertisement of the product or a page posted on this particular website, or a promotion of their partner page. As a result, you can see the pop-up from site X, but interacting with it will throw you to site Y – because a referral link to that website was added.

Crooks rely on this ability in their attempt to gain money using illegal advertising. They trick victims into allowing them to show the banners, and then just spread hundreds of banners of other crooks they have a deal with. As you may suppose, no benevolent companies will have a business with fraudsters. All the Saniceproxic popups you can see lead to other fraudulent sites. At some point, the same user can get into a trap of several pop-up spamming websites, and its web browser will turn into a complete mess.

The promotions these rascals show are paid under the pay-per-view model. It generally provides a miserable payment for one view, but when you can send ads to a huge number of users and show them hundreds of ads every day – that is a much bigger sum. Even though most of such ads giving no result at all, it may still give all the parties a lot of profit.

Are Saniceproxic pop-up advertisements dangerous?

Yes, they are. Initially, they may look non-threatening – just a blinking pop-up that appears from time to time. However, the things this window promotes differ drastically from what you used to see in pop-up advertisements. Saniceproxic.com web page is ruled by fraudsters, who intendedly show tons of irrelevant ads in pop-ups. They also don’t follow any manners of advertising and can launch sporadic pop-up advertisements into a hurricane of promotions. For weak computers, that may be enough to make the system slower. But that is not all problems these pop-up notifications carry.

As with any other thing related to illegal advertising, Saniceproxic pop-ups do not contain any legit offers. Even though crooks make the banners similar to ones from Amazon, Walmart or Ebay, the website these ads 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 ads 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, Saniceproxic pop-ups are not recommended to click on either, and the best solution is to disable them as soon as possible.

How to remove Saniceproxic pop-ups?

Fortunately, Saniceproxic pop-up advertisements removal is pretty easy. They reside in the browser and can’t hide themselves among system files. However, as I stated before, some pop-ups may introduce malicious software to your computer. It is hard to describe all cases, and manual malware removal is a poor idea. Thus, after removing the source of the pop-up notifications it is recommended to use anti-malware software. This step is especially recommended if you have never clicked “Allow” to push notifications, and they still appeared. That can be a sign of adware activity. GridinSoft Anti-Malware will be the best both system recovery and malware removal purposes, because of its system recovery functionality and multi-component detection system.
