How to stop ads from Happyfeed.net

Block notifications

Ads by Happyfeed.net are not only annoying, but many of them are also potentially dangerous (scams, fake giveaways, junkware, etc.). These ads arrive via web push notifications and can appear whenever the browser is open.

To stpo these ads, open the browser that’s affected by them. Then find the notification settings:

• Chrome – type “chrome://settings/content/notifications” in the address box.
• Safari – in the Safari menu, choose Preferences, Websites, Notifications.
• New Edge – type “edge://settings/content/notifications” in the address box.
• Firefox – open Settings, Preferences, Privacy & Security, scroll down to Permissions, and click on Settings next to Notifications.

When you see the notification settings page, you should see a list of all the websites that you’ve either allowed or blocked from sending notifications to you. Happyfeed.net has multiple subdomains, such as Rbxm.happyfeed.net, Kflu.happyfeed.net, and others, that can have separate entries.

Next to each address that is allowed to send notifications, there’s a button that shows a little menu that offers you to block or remove the site. Choose “Block” and that makes Happyfeed.net (or whichever site you “blocked”) unable to send notifications to your browser anymore. You can still visit the site, though.

Look for other malware

It is also advisable to use an antivirus program to check your computer for malware (for example, with Spyhunter for Windows, Combo Cleaner for macOS, or another program that you trust). It’s a good idea to check if there’s malware on your device, considering that:

• Happyfeed.net promotes junkware,
• adware promotes Happyfeed.net.

Unexpected ads

Happyfeed.net is a meme site, as well as a notification spammer. It appears in pop-up ads on various converter, pirating, adult video, and other etc. sites. For example, I encountered Happyfeed.net on Mp3-youtube.download.

When you’re trying to watch a video, download a file, or even if you just click randomly on the site, Happyfeed.net may appear in a new browser tab. It’s a blank page that asks you to allow its notifications. If you do, it starts sending notifications to your browser with various promoted links.

In this sense, Happyfeed.net is much better than most notification spammers. It doesn’t lie about what allowing notifications will do. Still, people might accidentally allow those notifications and Happyfeed.net doesn’t provide an easily accessible guide for stopping the pop-up ads.

Happyfeed.net is similar to Topflownews.com, Special-offers.online, Plsnotifyme.com, and other adware sites. According to web analytics, these sites get some of the same people visiting them. If your browser is hijacked by Happyfeed.net, then it might be hijacked by another adware site, as well.

Potentially dangerous websites

That’s because notification spammers tend to be advertised in the same ways. Sites that may be controversial or infringing on IP rights (so, pirating and adult sites) can’t afford to have high standards for their ads (or they just don’t care) and so they end up working with malicious and low-quality advertisers, showing ads that are banned elsewhere for breaking various rules.

Happyfeed.net is adware and thus many ad-networks do not allow it to advertise. Some do, though – PopCach, Adf.ly, AdsTerra, etc. These networks are often associated with controversial sites and so it’s not surprising that they promote Happyfeed.net.

If you want to avoid sites and ads like these, use an ad-blocker or an anti-malware program that has real-time web filters. They block potentially unwanted sites and can stop your browser from loading the most annoying and dangerous advertisements.
