Remove Smartlink.name Notifications and Pop-Ups

browser hijacker

Smartlink.name hosts a browser-based scam that is not dangerous. However, it is certainly annoying, and the changes it causes could be troublesome to deal with. You are likely to encounter Smartlink.name's contents for the first time because you visit low-quality sites used to spread pirated content, illegal streams, etc. Smartlink.name tries to convince users to follow its instructions in order to play media, download files, or unlock other content. Its messages often claim that users must pass an anti-robot check to confirm their identity, and continue to the next page.

What Does Smartlink.name Ask For?

The 'instructions' we mentioned above are quite simple. Smartlink.name says that all users need to do to complete the process is to press 'Allow.' However, pressing this button yields an entirely different result – it commands your browser to accept notifications from Smartlink.name.

This change enables the website  to deliver notifications to your Web browser regularly. However, it does not use the feature to be helpful and entertaining. It will abuse it to spam you with advertisements, which are often irrelevant to your interests. Apart from being intrusive, the Smartlink.name notifications may also expose you to scams, deceptive sites, and other harmful content. It is best to avoid the Smartlink.name notifications, and to focus on eliminating them. Check our guide on how to stop annoying notifications in Web browsers.
