Remove Matrixstar.net Notifications and Pop-Ups

Matrixstar.net is a con page that shows a fake anti-robot or CAPTCHA check. Of course, these are quite common online, and many users might not think twice about following Matrixstar.net's instructions. The page tells visitors to press 'Allow' to confirm that they are a real person, and to continue browsing. However, if you do this, you will not end up discovering nay content or media. Instead, you will unknowingly subscribe to the notifications of Matrixstar.net.

While there is nothing malicious about this, you should know that Matrixstar.net will abuse your browser notifications to spam you with intrusive content. Its notifications will show up a dozen times per hour, and they may often try to coerce you into interacting with dubious content. It is not uncommon for the Matrixstar.net notifications to link to other scams, fake products/services, or to content alerts and information that is straight-up fake. For example, some users report that the Matrixstar.net notifications contained fake virus alerts that, once clicked, prompted them to download dodgy antivirus software.  

It goes without saying that you should not click on the Matrixstar.net notifications, and you should not trust a thing they say. However, ignoring this issue is not enough – the spam will continue to bother you whenever you use your computer. You need to take the necessary steps to limit Matrixstar.net's ability to use browser notifications. To do this, follow the steps available in our guide on how to stop annoying notifications in Web browsers.
