Did you just get a pop-up from stamplive.com and ask yourself where it came from? Did the stamplive.com ad appear to have been launched from a web site that under normal circumstances don’t use advertising such as pop-up windows? Or did the stamplive.com pop-up show up while you clicked a link on one of the major search engines, such as Google, Bing or Yahoo?

Here’s a screenshot of the stamplive.com pop-up ad when it showed up on my machine:

After a while I was redirected to 590.xyz.

If you also see this on your computer, you almost certainly have some adware installed on your computer that pops up the stamplive.com ads. There’s no use contacting the owners of the web site you were browsing. The ads are not coming from them. I’ll try help you to remove the stamplive.com pop-ups in this blog post.

For those that are new to the blog: A little while back I dedicated a few of my lab computers and deliberately installed a few adware programs on them. I’ve been observing the actions on these computers to see what kinds of adverts that are displayed. I’m also looking on other interesting things such as if the adware updates itself, or if it downloads and installs additional unwanted software on the systems. I first noticed the stamplive.com pop-up on one of these lab computers.

stamplive.com was created on 2014-12-01. stamplive.com resolves to the 78.140.181.183 IP address.

So, how do you remove the stamplive.com pop-up ads? On the machine where I got the stamplive.com ads I had istartsurf, MedPlayerNewVersion and Movie Wizard installed. I removed them with FreeFixer and that stopped the stamplive.com pop-ups and all the other ads I was getting in Mozilla Firefox.

Judging from Alexa’s traffic rank, stamplive.com is getting quite a lot of traffic:

The issue with pop-ups such as this one is that it can be initiated by many variants of adware, not just the adware running on my computer. This makes it impossible to say exactly what you need to remove to stop the pop-ups.

Anyway, here’s my suggestion for the stamplive.com ads removal:

The first thing I would do to remove the stamplive.com pop-ups is to examine the programs installed on the machine, by opening the “Uninstall programs” dialog. You can reach this dialog from the Windows Control Panel. If you are using one of the more recent versions of Windows you can just type in “uninstall” in the Control Panel’s search field to find that dialog:

Click on the “Uninstall a program” link and the Uninstall programs dialog will open up:

Do you see something suspicious listed there or something that you don’t remember installing? Tip: Sort on the “Installed On” column to see if some program was installed about the same time as you started observing the stamplive.com pop-ups.

Then you can examine you browser add-ons. Adware often appear under the add-ons dialog in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. Is there something that looks suspicious? Anything that you don’t remember installing?

I think you will be able to identify and uninstall the adware with the steps outlined above, but in case that did not work you can try the FreeFixer removal tool to identify and remove the adware. FreeFixer is a freeware tool that I started develop about 8 years ago. It’s a tool designed to manually find and uninstall unwanted software. When you’ve tracked down the unwanted files you can simply tick a checkbox and click on the Fix button to remove the unwanted file.

FreeFixer’s removal feature is not crippled like many other removal tools out there. It won’t require you to pay for the program just when you are about to remove the unwanted files.

And if you’re having issues figuring out if a file is clean or adware in FreeFixer’s scan report, click on the More Info link for the file. That will open up your browser with a page which contains more information about the file. On that web page, check out the VirusTotal report which can be quite useful:

Did you just get a pop-up from offers.bycontext.com and ponder where it came from? Did the offers.bycontext.com ad appear to have been initiated from a web site that under normal circumstances don’t use aggressive advertising such as pop-up windows? Or did the offers.bycontext.com pop-up show up while you clicked a link on one of the big search engines, such as Google, Bing or Yahoo?

Here is a screen capture on the offers.bycontext.com pop-up from my system:

If you also see this on your computer, you almost certainly have some adware installed on your system that pops up the offers.bycontext.com ads. Contacting the owner of the web site would be a waste of time. They are not responsible for the ads. I’ll do my best to help you with the offers.bycontext.com removal in this blog post.

Those that have been visiting this blog already know this, but here we go: A little while back I dedicated a few of my lab computers and intentionally installed a few adware programs on them. Since then I have been following the actions on these machines to see what kinds of advertisements that are displayed. I’m also looking on other interesting things such as if the adware auto-updates, or if it downloads additional unwanted software on the machines. I first noticed the offers.bycontext.com pop-up on one of these lab machines.

offers.bycontext.com resolves to the 46.105.156.73 address. offers.bycontext.com was registered on 2014-05-15.

The problem with pop-ups such as this one is that it can be launched by many variants of adware, not just the adware on my computer. This makes it impossible to say exactly what you need to remove to stop the pop-ups.

So, what should done to solve the problem? To remove the offers.bycontext.com pop up ads you need to examine your system for adware or other types of unwanted software and uninstall it. Here’s my suggested removal procedure:

1. What software do you have installed if you look in the Add/Remove programs dialog in the Windows Control Panel? Something that you don’t remember installing yourself or that was recently installed?
2. How about your add-ons you have in your browsers. Anything in the list that you don’t remember installing?
3. If that didn’t help, you can give FreeFixer a try. FreeFixer is built to assist users when manually tracking down adware and other types of unwanted software. It is a freeware utility that I’ve been working since 2006 and it scans your computer at lots of locations where unwanted software is known to hook into your computer. If you would like to get additional details about a file in FreeFixer’s scan result, you can just click the More Info link for that file and a web page with a VirusTotal report will open up, which can be very useful to determine if the file is safe or malware:

Here’s how the zeroredirect1.com pop-up looked like when I got it on my computer:

The domain in this case was zj.zeroredirect1.com.

Does this sound like what you see your machine, you most likely have some adware installed on your machine that pops up the zeroredirect1.com ads. So don’t send angry emails to the site you were browsing, the ads are most likely not coming from them, but from the adware on your machine. I’ll do my best to help you remove the zeroredirect1.com pop-up in this blog post.

I found the zeroredirect1.com pop-up on one of the lab machines where I have some adware running. I’ve talked about this in some of the previous blog posts. The adware was installed on purpose, and from time to time I check if something new has appeared, such as pop-up windows, new tabs in the browsers, injected ads on website that usually don’t show advertisements, or if some new files have been saved to the hard-drive.

zj.zeroredirect1.com resolves to the 54.172.189.104 address and zeroredirect1.com to 54.84.0.18. zeroredirect1.com was created on 2013-06-14.

Do you see something strange-looking listed there or something that you don’t remember installing? Tip: Sort on the “Installed On” column to see if something was installed approximately about the same time as you started seeing the zeroredirect1.com pop-ups.

The next thing to check would be your browser’s add-ons. Adware often show up under the add-ons menu in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer or Safari. Is there anything that looks suspicious? Anything that you don’t remember installing?

Does this sound like what you are seeing right now? You see pop-up ads from smartprofits.org while browsing sites that usually don’t advertise in pop-up windows. The pop-ups manage to circumvent the built-in pop-up blockers in Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. Perhaps the smartprofits.org pop-ups appear when clicking search results from Google? Or does the pop-ups appear even when you’re not browsing?

Here is how the smartprofits.org ad looked like on my system:
