What is Topnewsfeeds.net?

Topnewsfeeds.net shows unwanted ads

Websites aren’t apps – they can’t be installed. They exist somewhere out there, separate and independent from our computers. And yet, Topnewsfeeds.net infects internet browsers and forces them to spam ads like some sort of an aggressive adware virus.

Topnewsfeeds.net does this by getting into browser notification settings. Web push notifications allow sites to send messages to your browser. These messages appear as pop-ups on your screen. Some sites use them to send out useful reminders and updates. Other sites use them to show advertisements. Topnewsfeeds.net is the latter.

The ads from Topnewsfeeds.net appear as notifications on your screen. They’re always labeled with “Topnewsfeeds.net” but clicking on them opens various other sites.

Topnewsfeeds.net is similar to Unread-notification.com, Makeklick.biz, Express-news.me, etc. There is an uncountable number of these ad-spamming sites.

Some of the ads may be dangerous

Sites like Topnewsfeeds.net don’t have high standards for what ads they’ll show. Naturally, advertisers who aren’t allowed on other platforms for one reason or another flock to any platform that’ll have them. As a result, Topnewsfeeds.net has a high concentration of junkware, scams, counterfeit electronics, and other iffy products.

Some of the ads are even designed to look like notifications from trusted websites, for example, from social media sites. This deception is used to trick people into clicking on the ads.

Topnewsfeeds.net gets access to notifications

Another deception is in how Topnewsfeeds.net asks you to allow it to send notifications to your browser. It might show a captcha, a loading bar, or maybe a video player like in the illustration above. Topnewsfeeds.net implies that you must allow its notifications (click the Allow button) in order to move forward.

When Topnewsfeeds.net is advertised, it appears in a new browser tab. It does not look like an ad.

Imagine if you were on a video streaming site when the Topnewsfeeds.net ad popped up. How would you tell that the page is an adware site and not a real video player?

Luckily, there are ways to curb notification hijackers.

How to stop Topnewsfeeds.net from sending ads

Avoid unsafe websites and ads

Sites like Topnewsfeeds.net are advertised online, often on controversial sites, such as free movie sites, file download sites, and video converters. If you go on such sites without shielding yourself with an ad blocker, it can be a very frustrating experience. Not to mention, potentially dangerous. Ads on those sites lead to scams, malware, and notification hijackers like Topnewsfeeds.net.

You can block ads with ad blockers. You can also block malicious sites with some anti-malware apps. Anti-malware apps, such as Spyhunter for Windows, Spyhunter for Mac, Malwarebytes, and others, can also help you stay safe against malicious and potentially unwanted programs. However, few antivirus scanners consider Topnewsfeeds.net to be spam. Catching malicious sites is hard as there are so many of them.

Automatic Malware removal tools

To defend yourself against notification spammers, you can go into your browser settings and disable notification prompts. You’ll stop seeing browser notification prompts, though you’ll still see the pre-permission messages that some sites show. You’ll still be able to manually allow a site to send you notifications in browser settings.

Block notifications

To stop Topnewsfeeds.net from showing notifications on your screen, go into your notification settings:

• Chrome – open Settings, scroll down to Site settings (under Privacy and security), click on Notifications.
• Edge – open Settings, click Site Permissions, Notifications.
• Safari – in the Safari menu, choose Preferences, Websites, Notifications.
• Firefox – open Settings, Privacy & Security, scroll down to Permissions, and click on Settings next to Notifications.

Now, find Topnewsfeeds.net, click the menu button next to its entry, and choose the Block/Deny option. This tells your browser to stop accepting messages from Topnewsfeeds.net, as well as to never again let Topnewsfeeds.net ask you to subscribe to its notifications.

While you’re in the settings, check all of the sites that are allowed to send you notifications. Are there any unfamiliar addresses? It’s so easy to allow notifications accidentally! You might want to block them or remove them, too. Only allow notifications from sites that you actually want to hear from.
