Ms.pushit.work is not a virus, even though this is the way many Internet visitors speak of it. They are so annoyed by the massive pop-up show they see that the term “virus” is the first word that comes to their minds. The problem, however, is not so severe compared to the damage that could be caused by other kinds of computer threats, such as keyloggers, ransomware, trojans, etc. What the ms.pushit.work pop-up does is actually displaying intrusive pop-up ads beyond the user’s control. This guide will furnish you with detailed instructions on fixing this issue in a proper way.
What is ms.pushit.work
The sequence of repeated pop-ups by the ms.pushit.work website is a social engineering attack. Its mission is to force you into subscribing to pretty intrusive push notifications directly on your screen. Ms.pushit.work pop-ups may display small advertisement banners, sponsored links, and other promoted content in order to generate revenue for its developers and distributors.
Some websites may render the feature of push notifications in a legal way. For example, we could take certain online store selling bicycles as an example. If you are looking for the brand new model of your bike, the website may suggest you subscribe to its new arrivals though enabling push notifications. This way you will be notified right away to your Desktop when new items are in stock.
Unfortunately, things are totally different when it comes to ms.pushit.work pop-ups. They act in a very aggressive form. They are so tricky and intrusive in their nature that they even may switch your browser into the full-screen mode in order to force you to click on their “Allow” button without giving you an option to close the window or to read more detailed information about the problem.
What happens when the “Allow” button is clicked
It is clear that the ms.pushit.work website is not related to some specific (unique) content. Unfortunately, it is interconnected with many other resources that often absolutely irrelevant to your areas of interest. However, the alert still attempts to make you think you will gain some benefit because of allowing its notifications. This is the message the pop-up displays:
ms.pushit.work wants to show notifications
Loading… Please tap the Allow button to continue.
Unfortunately, once the “Allow” button is clicked, users start immediately receiving the huge number of intrusive ads that will promote all sorts of content. Some websites to which the ms.pushit.work pop-ups redirect you are relatively safe, however, the great number of these redirections will eventually lead you to a lot of malicious pages. Hence, all such ads and sponsored links delivered by means of the ms.pushit.work notifications should not be clicked. You never know what kind of its content is secure and what part is dangerous. Therefore, it is better to stay away from interacting with the ms.pushit.work pop-ups.
