Remove clavixzura.com pop-ups

clavixzura.com is a deceptive website, identical to thousands of websites that have the same purpose of tricking users into allowing desktop ads. These types of sites misuse a legitimate browser feature that allows sites to request permission from users to show notifications on their desktops. While legitimate sites show useful content, sites like clavixzura.com use this feature to spam ads. What’s more, those ads could expose users to potentially dangerous content, such as malware and scams. Allowing clavixzura.com and similar sites to show notifications would be a mistake, but if you have given it permission, you can easily revoke it via the browser’s settings. Instructions can be found at the end of the report for users who need assistance.

 

 

Many websites use a browser feature that requests permission to send notifications to users’ desktops. This is why you often see pop-up messages asking if you want to allow notifications when you visit certain sites. For instance, if you give permission to a news website, you’ll receive updates directly on your desktop. Clicking these notifications will take you to the relevant content. This feature can be quite handy for staying informed about news, discounts, important announcements, etc. However, some less reputable sites, like clavixzura.com, exploit this feature to bombard users with advertisements.

When you are redirected to clavixzura.com, a browser alert will appear saying “clavixzura.com wants to show notifications”. If you click “Allow”, the site will begin displaying ads on your desktop. Some of these advertisements may look like legitimate system notifications, making it easy to confuse them with real alerts and possibly engage with harmful content, including malware and scams.

If you get redirected once or twice, it’s likely the sites you visit that are redirecting you. In that case, installing an ad blocker program will be very beneficial. However, if you experience frequent redirects, it’s possible you’re dealing with adware, and you’ll need to take steps to remove it.

Redirects to clavixzura.com could be caused by adware

You might end up on sites like clavixzura.com for two main reasons. One possibility is that adware on your computer is redirecting you there. Another reason could be accidentally clicking on something while browsing an ad-heavy site, in which case installing an adblocker program should fix the issue.

Frequent redirects can be caused by adware. While not as malicious as other malware, adware bombards you with ads. It usually gets installed through software bundling, where it comes bundled with free programs as an optional offer. These offers can be deselected, but they install automatically if not manually unchecked. To be able to deselect the offers, always choose Advanced (Custom) settings when installing free programs. This lets you see and uncheck any additional offers. Since many free programs use this method, it’s important to stay vigilant and deselect unwanted options.
