Seplumming.pro Pop-ups - How to remove

Seplumming.pro is a website with the name that does not make any sense. In fact, it is basically the same as andalbrighth.pro, neatdude.cool and renropsitto.info. The similarity is in their design, behavior on the targeted computers and the malicious activity they attempt to perform. If you have discovered seplumming.pro to be active in your Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or some other browser, it’s important that you investigate the problem more thoroughly and fix it. Otherwise, redirections caused by this website may cause other more essential troubles for your computer.

Seplumming.pro, in fact, is not a virus or malware, even though people prefer to speak of it this way. This is because the website essentially distracts them from performing important tasks online, or simply from the pleasure of browsing the preferred content. However, the fact that seplumming.pro is annoying is not the only negative thing to expect of it.

Why is seplumming.pro an unsafe website

Seplumming.pro malicious activity aims to perform these three functions:

• browser hijacking;
• displaying unsolicited ads;
• tracking the user’s browsing activities.

Regarding browser hijacking, seplumming.pro forces users into enabling its intrusive web push notifications or making you click on the associated “Allow” button. This is done in a very pushy way, for example, through switching your browser into the full-screen mode without letting you easily close the pop-up alert. Thus, people are not able to do anything with their browser but performing the tricky instructions provided by seplumming.pro. The pop-up may give you the message claiming that it is important to click on the “Allow” to verify your age, to confirm that you are not a robot or to fix your missing Internet Connection. Some statements given by the alert are absolutely deceptive.

Once its web push notifications are activated, seplumming.pro starts permanently displaying the load of excessive advertisement banners and sponsored links in the rectangular boxes placed in various parts of your screen. These pop-ups may attack your screen even when the browser is not in use, however, it will be running in the background and causing the aforesaid pop-up show. Redirections by seplumming.pro are dangerous, so you should stay away from clicking on its ads. They may lead you to many other dangerous resources on the web, such as:

• installers of PUPs (potentially unwanted programs);
• websites aiming to collect your personal details illegally;
• fake Microsoft or Apple technical support pages (online scam).

Seplumming.pro is directly involved in spying over your browsing activities. It tracks your browsing preferences, i.e. the search queries you submit through your browser. Then it analyzes this data and may deliver some ads that would be more relevant to you. However, this does not make seplumming.pro a legitimate service. The information collected by it may be illegally transferred to third parties and even to cybercriminals.

How to block seplumming.pro pop-ups

The function of displaying web push notifications is a legitimate component of many browsers. Some online resources similarly suggest that you enable their notifications by clicking on “Authorize” or “Allow” buttons. This way you will be notified about new publications on these decent websites. However, seplumming.pro works in a totally different way. It forwards you to the multitude of dangerous places on the Internet and may cause a lot of subsequent problems.

You need to disable seplumming.pro from your browser settings. In Google Chrome, find “Site Settings”, then go to “Notifications”, find seplumming.pro in the list and delete it. The similar steps may be done in Mozilla Firefox through accessing its “Privacy & Security” section in Preferences. However, manually disabling seplumming.pro does not guarantee that other computer problems will be resolved. Your system may still contain malware that continues its damaging activities. We recommend scanning with either Spyhunter to identify these problems and automatically fix them.
