Wholenicenews.com pop-ups show up on your device because you have clicked on some pop-up offers on some rogue websites accidentally or because you have an adware program installed on your computer. Pop-ups sent to your computer by legitimate websites may be displaying useful content; however, with Wholenicenews.com, this is not the case.

Instead, it is an empty page whose only purpose is to conduct aggressive advertising campaigns for possibly unsafe or fraudulent entities on the Internet. A common method used by Wholenicenews.com to make you accept its pop-ups is to state that you have to enable the alerts to see the website’s content. Occasionally, the website also may claim that this is needed to ensure that you’re not a robot. In both situations, users are best advised to skip the Web page and look for the information they need in other places.

In some cases, users suffer from Wholenicenews.com pop-ups due to the effects of adware existence. This particular adware-type is not oriented on traditional banner promotions but on countless intrusive pop-ups that appear on the user’s display. In that case, the fraudsters aim to maximize the profit per single user by generating a massive amount of promotional alerts in a short period.

To get your browser back to normal, it is required to remove Wholenicenews.com’s permission to send you alerts or remove the adware program that is showing the pop-ups through a reliable anti-malware solution. It is not advisable to tolerate these alerts on your system, as they are by no means benevolent. Just the opposite – clicking on any content generated by Wholenicenews.com may lead the user to unsafe websites and even result in malware being installed on the user’s computer.
