If your browser is constantly being redirected to the Lookawoman.com site, then you may have adware installed on your computer.
What is Lookawoman.com?
Lookawoman.com is part of an advertising service that website publishers can use to generate revenue on their sites. Unfortunately, there are malicious programs that are redirecting users to these Lookawoman.com ads without the permission of the publisher in order to generate revenue.
When Lookawoman.com redirects a browser to an advertisement, the ads are typically for unwanted browser extensions, surveys, adult sites, online web games, fake software updates, and unwanted programs.
Why am I seeing the Lookawoman.com pop-up ads?
You are seeing the Lookawoman.com pop-up ads because your device is infected with malware, malicious push notifications, or a site you have visited has redirected your browser.
Less than reputable sites can display malicious ads that redirect your browser to the Lookawoman.com pop-up ads to generate advertising revenue. If this happens, you can close the page and install an ad blocker like AdGuard to block the malicious ads. However, if you continuously see pop-ups like Lookawoman.com pop-up ads, then your computer might be infected with a malicious program, and you need to scan your device for adware and remove it.
Here are a few typical signs that you have a malicious program installed on your computer:
- Advertisements appear in places they shouldn’t be.
- Your web browser’s homepage has mysteriously changed without your permission.
- Web pages that you typically visit are not displaying properly.
- Website links redirect to sites different from what you expected.
