Zebrahikol.club is a scam website that uses social engineering methods to trick users. It asks users to click on the allow button to verify if they are not robot. The website pretends to be a robot identifying service, that filters bot from the internet traffic. However, there is no such service on this website. It just wants you to click on the allow button. The allow button is for push notifications. If you click on that button you give your permission to send notifications.

STEP 2: Use MalwareFox to remove malware
MalwareFox is a light yet strong antimalware capable of detecting and removing modern security threats. It analyzes the behaviour of all programs and uses cloud-based scanning to catch the malware. Whenever a program takes action that matches with the malware description, MalwareFox blocks that program. Moreover, it is light on your system resources, which lets it finish the scan quickly.
I am not trying to make you install high-cost removal tools. The subscription for MalwareFox antimalware is reasonably low. But that is only when you want a fully-featured tool with real-time detection capability. You can use the free version also to scan the PC manually. However, you can opt for the 14 days trial where you get to try all the features and then decide to purchase the premium version. If you are already using any other antivirus, you don't need to remove that, MalwareFox works with them effectively without any conflicts.
