mainsourceofupdate[.]best is a deceptive/scam web page, which claims that the visitor's Adobe Flash Player is outdated. It also endorses a fake Flash updater. These rogue updaters are used to proliferate a wide variety of untrustworthy and malicious content. Few users access mainsourceofupdate[.]best intentionally, since most are redirected to this site by intrusive advertisements or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already infiltrated into the system.

Visitors to mainsourceofupdate[.]best first see a pop-up window informing them that the Adobe Flash Player supposedly needs to be updated. After this pop-up is closed, the site displays another web page, which informs users that Adobe Flash Player is an essential browser plug-in. Flash Player enables users to view content ranging from videos to animation, and is also necessary to play high-quality audio and certain online games. It states that, since this plug-in missing the latest security updates (i.e., the software is outdated), it has been blocked and is no longer operational. To continue using Adobe Flash Player, mainsourceofupdate[.]best recommends updating it. This web page has a pop-up window in the bottom right corner. The text presented within this window urges users to continue watching (it does not specify what), since Flash Player requires the latest updates. The page then shows yet another pop-up, which repeats the general message. If users are tricked by mainsourceofupdate[.]best, they will download/install a fake updater used to proliferate unwanted and malicious content (e.g. fake Mac cleaners/optimizers, browser hijackers, adware, trojans and so on).

As well as generating redirects to deceptive/scam, untrustworthy and malicious web pages, PUAs have other dangerous capabilities. PUAs often seem legitimate and tempt users to install with offers of 'useful' features, which are usually nonoperational. Unwanted apps such as fake system cleaners/optimizers often require activation to perform their advertised functions, however, despite being activated (i.e., purchases made), they remain nonfunctional. Adware-type applications run intrusive advertisement campaigns, diminishing the browsing experience and delivering harmful ads. Browser hijackers make unauthorized changes to browsers and limit/deny access to their settings. PUAs commonly have data tracking capabilities. They record users' browsing activity (browsing and search engine histories) and gather personal information (IP addresses, geolocations and other details). This private data can then shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) intent on misusing it for profit. To summarize, PUAs can cause browser/system infiltration and infections, and lead to financial loss, serious privacy issues and even identity theft. To ensure device integrity and user safety, remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

mainsiteofupdatenow[.]best, centersourceoffreeupgrade[.]best, and securedconection[.]com are some examples of other scam websites. They tend to use social engineering and scare tactics to trick users into performing specific actions. For example, deceptive pages can claim that a crucial piece of software is outdated and then suggest updates. They can also warn visitors that their devices are at risk/infected and offer applications for the removal of the nonexistent threats/issues. These are just some ways in which these sites encourage users into downloading/installing/purchasing untrustworthy or malicious content, revealing personal and/or banking information, and so on. You are strongly advised against trusting web pages that 'detect' any device threats or issues, make ludicrous offers, claim that visitors have won 'amazing' prizes, or similar.

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

Fake updaters can be the source of PUAs, however, these apps can also be installed together with other normal products. This deceptive marketing method of pre-packing regular software with unwanted or malicious content is called 'bundling'. Rushing download/installation processes (e.g. ignoring terms, skipping steps, using pre-set options, etc.) increases the risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content onto devices, thereby endangering them with potential infiltration and infections. Some PUAs have 'official' download pages. When clicked, intrusive advertisements can execute scripts designed to download/install PUAs without users' consent.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

You are strongly advised to research all content, prior to downloading/installing. Use only official and verified download channels. Do not use untrustworthy sources such as Peer-to-Peer sharing networks (BitTorrent, eMule, Gnutella, etc.), unofficial and free file-hosting websites, third party downloaders and similar - these are far more likely to offer deceptive and/or bundled products. Software should be updated with tools/functions provided by legitimate developers. Third party updaters are high-risk and should be avoided. When downloading/installing, read the terms, explore all possible options, use the 'Custom/Advanced' settings and opt-out of additional apps, tools, features, etc. Intrusive ads usually seem normal and harmless, however, they redirect to dubious sites (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating and others). If you encounter ads/redirects of this kind, check the system and immediately remove all dubious applications and/or browser extensions/plug-ins. If your computer is already infected with PUAs, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate them.
