What is S1-n.com?

S1-n.com forwards to advertised sites

S1-n.com is a site that shows deceptive ads on desktop and mobile devices. It shows up on Fmovies, Y2Mate, MyFlixer, and other file download and converter sites. It displays fake download links and redirects to various other sites.

The sites promoted by S1-n.com include:

• get-rich-quick schemes, especially shady cryptocurrency trading platforms,
• notification hijackers (Totaltopfeed.com, Premiumbros.com),
• betting and gambling sites,
• untrustworthy VPNs and ad blockers,
• browser hijackers.

Not all the content that S1-n.com advertises is dangerous. But some of it is, so it’s best to be careful of this site.

It deliberately misleads people

While S1-n.com advertises a variety of online content, a very common destination is the mobile service provider subscription scam similar to the scams on Ouisys.com.

1. First, S1-n.com shows a fake download page bar and instructs the user to provide their phone number if they want to finish downloading a file.
2. Then, it opens a page that asks the user to enter their phone number and send an SMS. Although the user might not realize it, this subscribes them to a paid service.

Because S1-n.com is often advertised on file download sites, its deliberately misleading language works to confuse users and trick them into subscribing to unwanted and expensive mobile services.

S1-n.com might be promoted by adware infections

A poster on Answers.microsoft.com said that their browser would open S1-n.com automatically every time they turned on their computer. This could be a sign of an adware virus.

Adware infections are malicious apps and browser add-ons that show unwanted ads. They use advertising websites like S1-n.com to show those ads. That sort of adware infection is not directly the fault of S1-n.com, but rather a symptom of it.

How to stop S1-n.com pop-ups

Stop unwanted ads

One way to stop aggressive pop-up ads is to install an ad blocker. Ad blockers are programs and browser extensions that can stop ads from showing in your browser.

Since a lot of malicious ads appear as pop-ups, it helps to disable pop-ups in your browser settings:

• Mozilla Firefox
• Google Chrome
• Safari
• Microsoft Edge

When your browser blocks pop-ups, a message appears (usually in the upper right) where you can choose to allow the pop-ups to show up. You’ll still be able to open legitimate pop-ups and allow some sites to show them always.

Finally, if you avoid websites that show pop-up ads, you’re less likely to encounter S1-n.com and similar advertising sites.

Check your device for adware

If an adware infection is causing the S1-n.com pop-ups, your browser might open the site on its own, even when you’re not doing anything.

To find the culprit, atart by reviewing your browser extensions. A lot of problems with web browsers are caused by malicious extensions. The instructions for removing browser add-ons can be found below.

It can also help to use antivirus apps (Spyhunter for PC, Spyhunter for Mac, Combo Cleaner for Mac, etc.) to find and delete malicious and unsafe programs from your device.
