Suddenly Dnav.com took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
Let’s play the questions game. We ask you questions, and you answer. What does it mean if, one day, you find your homepage replaced? What if your search engine also gets switched? What if you’ve never come across this new page that’s in their stead? It seems suspicious, but is it? What if that page is Dnav.com? Well, if the answer to the last question is ‘Yes,’ you’re in big trouble. You and your system are in danger. Why? Well, the answer you were looking for, but did not want, is ‘hijacker.’ More specifically, you’ve managed to catch a browser hijacker infection. The questions raised above, all come as a consequence to that infection. Its presence on your PC is what brought them to your attention. Just to be clear, that is NOT something you want to deal with as these tools are utter plague. A menace. Hijackers are notoriously invasive and troublesome. They slither in undetected, and proceed to wreck your system. They not only throw you into a world of nasty issue, but also threaten your privacy. The tool spies on you, and steals data from you. It catalogs every single move you make online, and then sends the gathered data to strangers. When it decides it has enough, it hands it off to the people behind it. Unknown individuals with agendas will have access to your personal and financial information. Oh, yes. As long as the tool remains on your PC, your private life is in jeopardy. There isn’t a SINGLE reason in favor of keeping the tool. It overwhelms you with issues and headaches. And, the more time you grant it on your PC, the worse your predicament gets. Hijackers take advantage of every opportunity you give them to make a mess. So, don’t! Don’t let a malicious, annoying tool wreak havoc on your system! Don’t stand by as it threatens your privacy! Protect your PC and yourself! Once you see Dnav.com, take the hint. The site is a clear warning there’s a hijacker somewhere on your computer. Find its hiding place ASAP! And, when you do, get rid of it! The sooner you do, the better. You’ll save yourself a ton of troubles, and earn the gratitude of your future self.
How did I get infected with?
Dnav.com pops up once a hijacker has invaded your PC. Although, ‘invaded’ may not be the most appropriate word in this case. Why? Well, how can you consider it an invasion, when you let it in yourself? When you open the door, and hold it open as the tool parades through? You may not remember doing that, but you did. You let the application into your system. It asked whether you agree to install you, and you must have complied. After all, hijackers cannot enter without the green light of approval from the user. You. But don’t beat yourself up too hard. The infection doesn’t just pop out in the open, and seek admission. That leaves too much room for denial. So, instead, it turns to slyness and subtlety. It uses the sneakiest ways to ask for compliance on its install. Like, hiding behind freeware. Or, corrupted links, or spam email attachments. It can even pose as a bogus update. Like, Adobe Flash Player. If you wish to avoid getting stuck with such an unwanted tool, be wary! Always do your due diligence when installing a tool or an update. Never give into gullibility and distraction. And, do NOT rush! Sometimes even a little extra time and vigilance can go a long way. Remember that.
Why is this dangerous?
Dnav.com becomes the bane of your browsing after a hijacker slithers into your PC. The nasty page begins to pop up everywhere. It appears when you surf the web, or open a new tab. It replaces your default search engine and homepage. Oh, yes. One day, you come to find them as Dnav.com. You didn’t ask for the change, you didn’t approve it and, yet! There it is! That’s what a hijacker does. If it so wishes, it can perform reshuffles throughout your system. And, it’s not bound to seek your compliance on them. So, imagine what would happen, if it decides to install malware? It can. That is a valid possibility. An outcome, you have to prepare yourself for. If the infection so desires, it can install as many other infections as it feels like. And, it can do so, without asking for your approval. It doesn’t even have to inform you. It can just spring the changes on you as a surprise. And, what surprise it would be to turn on your PC, and find it overrun with malware? Should that happen, The Blue Screen of Death won’t be far behind. After all, how long do you believe your system will last under constant advances of cyber threats? Don’t wait around to find out. Protect your system! Not to mention, your privacy! Do you remember what we mentioned above? How the tool spies on you? Steals data from you? Sends said data to strangers with agendas? Don’t threaten your system’s well-being. Don’t jeopardize your personal and financial information. Do what’s best for you and your PC, and get rid of the infection at once. As soon as Dnav.com takes over your screen, act! Find where the hijacker, using the page as a front, is lurking. And when you do, delete it. It’s for the best.
