Recently, I saw a ton of posts like “my internet browser displays me unwanted News-rimoxi.cc pop-up advertisements, is it a virus?” or “these News-rimoxi.cc pop-up ads in my Chrome making me mad, how to manage them?”. According to the stats for last months, virus suppliers began a broad adware distribution project.

Pop-Ups : Discovering The Nature
You can admit that some sites (like a News-rimoxi.cc) show you pop-up promotions. The message can contain something like “do you want to get alerts regarding the most recent news?” or “allow alerts to be reported about latest price cuts?”. Normally, such messages are harmless, and can only sidetrack you with its unexpected visual appeal. Plus it can be quite easily turned off, in case alerts from this web page are no longer required.
Pop-up alerts are fairly an efficient advertising mechanism. If you are interested in goods of some sort, you can allow pop-ups from the website where you can buy this stuff, and as soon as these products are in store again, or if you can have a discount – you will certainly get the notification concerning this. The counterparty – online retailers, vehicle lending companies, etc – will certainly remain in profit, too – buyer will surely obtain a reminder about the product he/she planned to buy. And such a marketing approach is nearly free – this aspect is really important for companies.
