Last week, I saw a great deal of posts like “my internet browser demonstrates to me unwanted News-puyitu.com pop-up advertisements, is it a computer virus?” or “these News-puyitu.com pop-up advertisements in my Chrome making me insane, how to manage them?”. Due to the data for last months, virus suppliers started a vast adware distribution project. Let me show you, how you can delete the computer viruses from your computer, and also forget about the irritating News-puyitu.com pop-ups.
Pop-Ups : Discovering The Nature
You can admit that some websites (like a News-puyitu.com) show you pop-up advertisements. The message can contain something like “do you want to get notices regarding the current information?” or “enable notifications to be reported about new discounts?”. Usually, such messages are safe, and can just sidetrack you with its unexpected visual appeal. And it can be easily turned off, in case alerts from this website are no longer wanted.
Pop-up notices are rather an efficient marketing mechanism. If you want products of some kind, you can give a permission to the pop-ups from the site where you can buy this stuff, and as quickly as these items are in store again, or if you can have a discount – you will certainly obtain the alert regarding this. The counterparty – online stores, automobile lending companies, etc – will be in profit, too – purchaser will undoubtedly obtain a suggestion about the item he/she meant to buy. And such a marketing technique is nearly free – this aspect is extremely essential for firms.

Advertisements, which are shown to you by malware, are paid by their creators. In a few weeks, all anti-malware programs began to block these adware, thus, trojan loses in earnings. And to terminate the user’s desktop, virus distributors start ransomware distribution via these trojans.
