Replyalert.net Pop-ups - How to remove

Replyalert.net is a dangerous pop-up site that tries to trick people into subscribing to a flood of spam ads that come right into their browser. This page can attack desktop and mobile browsers and promotes restricted, possibly dangerous content.

Replyalert.net is only one example of a sea of adware sites like it, together with Windowsdefender.club, Deloton.com, and Vikolidoskopinsk.info. These sites can be incredibly annoying and flood your device with pop-ups very quickly:

• They send pop-ups that look like social media alerts that lead to unrelated pages.
• These pages promote each other and might cause you to receive even more ads into your browser.
• Phishing sites, malware, tech support scams are advertised.
• Browser hijackers are promoted.
• Unregulated medical supplements are promoted.
• Fake lotteries and giveaways are constantly advertised.

By the way, these adware sites are absolutely not associated with legitimate services and webpages. For example, Windowsdefender.club is not associated with Microsoft. There’s a version of Replyalert.net that has “www-google-com” in its URL – it has nothing to do with Google. These sites are undoubtedly malicious and they might use familiar URLs to confuse people, but don’t give into that. Close Replyalert.net when it opens.

How the Pop-ups start

Replyalert.net targets users all over the world and is most likely to appear when you browse various filesharing, speed-testing, browser gaming, streaming sites that have very aggressive ads. Actually, almost any website can inadvertently spread Replyalert.net if it is infected by malicious actors. If you ever clicked on a link to a known, safe website and were redirected to some fake update alert or a gambling advertisement, you might have stumbled on an infected site. Clicking on an unknown shortened link might also load Replyalert.net.

On pages that advertise Replyalert.net, the site can show up when you click on a download button or try to open some content on a website, or just whenever it feels like it. It can be quite aggressive and appear unprompted. When it does, it might force your browser into full-screen display and use a phrase similar to:

• Click “Allow” To Download.
• Click “Allow” To Continue.
• Press “Allow” To Close The Page.
• Press “Allow” If You Are 18.

The “Allow” refers to the alert that “Replyalert.net wants to show notifications”. Some people complain that they need to allow notifications in order to download a file or access a piece of content. This is false – you can just close the tab with Replyalert.net (Cmd+W for Mac OS, Alt+F4 for Windows) and continue to browse normally. Do not interact with sites that require you to allow notifications because they are not safe.

Once Replyalert.net has the ability to send you web push notifications, it takes full advantage of it. Whether your phone or your desktop browser was affected, it is forced to receive and show pop-ups that open all sorts of unsafe websites.

How to stop Replyalert.net ads

• 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.

When you access the notifications section in your browser, find Replyalert.net and block it form updating you. It might take a while to dismiss the pop-ups that already appeared, though. Block other suspicious websites, too, and any that you don’t want to receive pop-ups from. You can also disable notifications altogether, though that might be a bit extreme.

Additionally, you can use an antivirus or another program with real-time web protection to block malicious websites, or block them yourself.

It’s also advisable to scan your computer with a competent antivirus program (Combo Cleaner for Mac OS, SpyHunter for PC) to make sure any of the sites you were on ever downloaded some malware for you. To avoid automatic downloads, make sure your browser and your operating system has the latest updates installed.
