Hetontbetca.info is generated by the specific adware controlling your important browser settings and randomly redirecting you to suspicious online resources. However, the problem is that often the adware cannot be visually identified. Checking your available programs does now show any dubious applications. Nevertheless, your browser still acts in a very strange manner when it forwards you to irrelevant pages instead of the website you intended to initially go to.
The fake alert stated by hetontbetca.info
The main intention of hetontbetca.info when it initially comes up is to convince you to enable its web push notifications. You will notice that the pop-up contains two integrated buttons called “Block” and “Allow”. The alert has the goal to force you into clicking on the “Allow”, so it gives you this warning:
Checking your browser
To access the website, click “Allow”
Alternatively, the pop-up could mention that it is important to click on its button for the purpose of verifying your age, downloading the specific file or confirming that you’re not a robot. Unfortunately, the results of interacting with these alerts may cause a lot of very bad consequences. The browser will be hijacked even more dramatically. Push notifications by hetontbetca.info will disturb your attention greatly, without letting you concentrate on other more important information while you browse the web.
