The Novostisporta.info site appears to be suited to Russian-speaking users with its support for the Russian language only. The site is dedicated to sports events in the Russian Federation and a limited number of news related to foreign soccer teams. Even if you are a Russian-speaking netizen, you may want to avoid loading Novostisporta.info. The page has been reported to be connected to a browser hijacker. Affected PC users have complained that their Internet clients may load Novostisporta.info as the homepage by default, new tabs may be opened automatically to present articles published at Novostisporta.info. Computer security experts have found that there is adware in the wild, which is programmed to reroute users to Novostisporta.info and generate Web traffic to the site. According to data on Hypestat.com, the news portal at Novostisporta.info receives 7,950 unique visitors approximately and earns a modest revenue of 18 USD from advertising alone.
The owner of Novostisporta.info may not be content with how little is gained from the site and may have hired help from adware developers who specialize in "boosting" a site's performance. That is just one possibility, and the adware creators may have nothing to do with Novostisporta.info but the ad network that provides the website publishers with content from advertisers. It should not come as a surprise if you are told that some site owners and ad networks may use computer-generated clicks and traffic on associated commercials to make a profit. There is evidence suggesting that Novostisporta.info may promote questionable software and lead users to untrusted pages. The Novostisporta.info browser hijacker may modify the browser settings of Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox to facilitate its operations. The browser hijacker may hide its activity by running as a subprocess under the svchost.exe service by Windows.
