Last week, I saw a plenty of posts like “my browser demonstrates to me unwanted News-usoqex.cc pop-up advertisements, is it a virus?” or “these News-usoqex.cc pop-up advertisements in my Chrome making me insane, how to manage them?”. According to the stats for last months, pc virus distributors began a wide adware circulation project.

Pop-Ups : Discovering The Nature
You can admit that some websites (like a News-usoqex.cc) use you pop-up ads. The message can have something like “do you want to have notifications regarding the current news?” or “allow notifications to be reported regarding recent price cuts?”. Typically, such messages are safe, and may only distract you with its sudden showing up. Plus it can be simply turned off, in case notices from this online resource are no longer required.
Pop-up notices are rather an efficient marketing instrument. If you have an interest in products of some type, you can allow pop-ups from the site where you can purchase this things, and as soon as these items are in inventory again, or if you can have a price cut – you will certainly obtain the notification regarding this. The counterparty – online merchants, car lending companies, etc – will be in profit, too – buyer will certainly get a pointer regarding the item he/she planned to buy. And such an advertising approach is practically free – this aspect is extremely essential for corporations.
