How did I get infected with?

The malicious program, you’re currently stuck with and is hiding behind Fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net, didn’t just magically appear out of the blue. Such applications have to be invited in.

That’s not surprising, considering how sneaky such tools are. Not only do they dupe you into agreeing to install them, but also keep you oblivious to it. That might seem improbable, but it’s true. Malware, like the one presently wreaking havoc on your PC, tend to use the old but gold means of infiltration to slither into your system undetected. Their favorite ones include hiding behind spam email attachments, corrupted links or sites, or freeware. They can also pretend to be bogus updates. The key to preventing such hazardous infections from invading your computer is to be extra attentive! Don’t throw caution to the wind, don’t rush, and don’t give into gullibility. Do your best NOT to be careless, but be extra careful! After all, even a little extra attention today can save you a ton of troubles tomorrow.

Why are these ads dangerous?

One day, you’ll turn on your PC, open your browser and see the Fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net page pop up. At first, you’ll discard it as a one-time mistake. But then it will happen again. And, again. And, again. And, many times over, until it starts to feel as it the page is all you see. You’ll see the website every single time you try to go online because a malicious application on your computer will force it on you. Why? Well, it’s programmed to do so. The infection that managed to find its way to your computer will redirect you to Fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net incessantly until your browsing experience turns into hell. You’ll see the page pop up so often that your computer’s performance will slow down to a crawl, and your system will begin to crash frequently. But that won’t be the only annoyance plaguing your browsing. Apart from the redirects, you’ll also have to bear a full-on flood of pop-up advertisements. Both the ads and the redirects will put the limits of your patience to the test. But as intrusive and obnoxious as that meddling is, it’s nothing compared to the security risk you’ll be faced with. If you allow the malware to stay on your PC, you’re risking your personal and financial information falling into the hands of strangers with unclear intentions. Does that sound like a gamble you’re willing to take? The tool, using Fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net as a front, starts spying on you from the very first moment it settles on your system. It keeps track of your browsing habits, catalogs your every move online, and then, once it deems it sufficient, sends the gathered data to the third parties that support it. That’s not some possibility. That WILL happen if you don’t delete the malware as soon as it displays the Fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net site for the first time. It’s up to you to decide whether that’s a calculated, reasonable risk to take. But think long and hard before you form your decision as both yours and your system’s future rest on it.
