The creators of dubious or unsafe software always choose the easiest way to introduce their applications into the PCs of unsuspecting computer users. One of their most effective methods is to convince innocent computer users to click a conveniently displayed 'Allow' button to play a video. This is the case with a website named Webdefencesurvey.online that is pestering computer users' machines lately.

When you visit this domain, you will see a pop-up, according to which you should click the 'Allow' button. However, instead of accessing a video, computer users will allow Webdefencesurvey.online to execute the task it was programned to accomplish, which is to exhibit numerous, invasive and unwanted advertisements on the users' screens. Therefore, you should ignore Webdefencesurvey.online requests and never click the 'Allow' button. Doing so, you may install a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP), adware or even unsafe applications, besides being subjected to its advertisements and other actions that may end up being injurious.

Webdefencesurvey.online may change the users' homepage and browser settings. Such unauthorized change may be due to an also present browser hijacker. These applications may be installed easily as additions to freeware applications and may affect Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and more.

Webdefencesurvey.online can be easily removed from an affected machine by an anti-malware application.
