How to stop the Notification-list.com pop-up spam

As the site abuses notifications, it is notification permissions that need to be revoked to stop the ads. Don’t worry if you’ve never touched these settings, they’re easy to manage. Just open the browser that is being spammed with the pop-ups. It might be Chrome, Edge, Safari, or Firefox. If it’s none of those, then, chances are that your browser is Chromium and the settings for Chrome should apply. To access notification settings:

• Chrome – type “chrome://settings/content/notifications” in the address box.
• Safari – in the Safari menu, choose Preferences, Websites, Notifications.
• Edge – open Settings, Advanced settings, Notifications, Manage.
• Firefox – type “about:preferences#content” in the address bar, find the Notifications section.

Now you should see your list of websites that can send you notifications. It might include addresses like “www1.notification-list.com”, “www3.notification-list.com”, “notification-centar.com”, “latestsocial.com“, “flvto.biz“, and others. Just click on a menu (usually, it looks like three dots), switch, or another option to get a little menu. You should then be able to choose to disable or block the website from sending you any more ads.

If you aren’t sure about a particular website, just block it. You should only allow notifications from sites that you actually want to receive updates from. As Notification-list.com has no content, it’s pop-ups aren’t going to be valuable. This site is doing this for profit and nothing more.

Scan your computer with anti-malware tools if you suspect that a malicious program caused the Notification-list.com pop-ups. It’s possible that, if you didn’t enable Notification-list.com’s pop-ups yourself, some adware virus did it. That’s what they do – manipulate your browser settings to show you ads. To find and remove the adware, use anti-malware tools, for example, Combo Cleaner for MacOS, SpyHunter for Windows. Feel free to use any competent security tool that can detect PUPs (potentially unwanted programs) and is good at removing infections, not just preventing them.

How Notification-list.com sends the pop-ups

How the browser accepts pop-ups

It’s good to know how the pop-ups from Notification-list.com start so that you know what to avoid in the future. And you might need to. The internet is full of sites like Notification-list.com that also hijack notifications and spam browsers with ads. If fact, your browser can be affected by many of these sites at once. All that is needed is to allow notifications from each of them.

One of the ways that your browser might have been forced to accept notifications from Notification-list.com is if a malicious program did that. Malicious programs might be spread with malicious ads or with normal free programs:

• Malicious ads can automatically download dangerous software. You can generally avoid that by keeping your browser, operating system, and antivirus program up-to-date by installing the newest updates or allowing automatic updates.
• Freeware also carries malware occasionally. Pirating, torrenting, random download sites, email are potential sources of malware. The way this works is that the distributors of free programs often use the PPI model to make money. They get paid to include additional software with their program. Sometimes, the additional software is unwanted or even malicious.

Either way, malware can cause notifications from Notification-list.com being accepted and thus, Notification-list.com pop-ups start without you doing anything wrong.

The other way to encounter Notification-list.com is through bad ads. Putlockers, streaming, torrent, and adult sites are especially risky, but lots of sites have ads that open Notification-list.com. Often, Notification-list.com is opened unexpectedly. Once you’re on the site, you might be shown a loading video, or a fake reCAPTCHA prompt, and a notification prompt. These are meant to give you the impression that you need to do something to get past the Notification-list.com screen, and the only thing to do is to interact with the notifications prompt. If you click “Allow”, that’s how the pop-ups start.

Dangerous ads

Users’ productivity and nerves suffer a lot from Notification-list.com, pop-ups. The pop-ups come constantly and each one needs to be dismissed manually, or else they will just sit there, taking up screen space and covering up site content. Also, Notification-list.com is especially bad on mobile browsers, where the pop-ups are harder to ignore.

In addition to being distracting, Notification-list.com is dangerous: it spreads scams, get-rich-quick schemes, fake surveys, and other content designed by online fraudsters to rob people of money. Don’t trust Notification-list.com’s ads because that could literally cost you.

How to avoid notification spammers

It’s important to read the text of a dialog box or a pop-up before you click on it. In the case of Notification-list.com, the site wants to send you notifications – messages and updates right to your browser. You should block it.

You can also disable notifications from showing. That way, sites like Notification-list.com will just look stupid when you visit them.

Use an antivirus program to block malicious websites. Notification-list.com is a scam site and antivirus programs would have added it to their blocklist as soon as it was discovered. Also, use that antivirus program to scan software installers to avoid adware.

Finally, always know that you can just close a browser tab or window and not have to deal with the site. If Notification-list.com expands to full screen or takes control away from you in another way, open your Task Manager if you’re on Windows (press Ctrl, Shift, and Esc at the same time) or the Force Quit window if you’re on MacOS (Cmd, Alt, and Esc). Find your browser process and force it to close.
