How did I get infected with?
Adware bombards you with the Gooooodle.com ads. This parasite sneaks into your computer and affects every aspect of your browsing experience. Don’t, however, overestimate the parasite. Even though it makes a mess out of your browser, the adware doesn’t do so through ingenious cyber-attacks. This parasite is not a virus but a standard app which has many limitations. It, for example, can’t get installed without the user’s permission. The adware needs you to approve its access. There is, of course, a catch. Having to seek permission is not the same as having to do so outright. The adware is a trickster that hides in the fine print. It lurks behind bundles, fake updates, and pirated software. This pest infects your computer when you let your guard down. Don’t make its job easier. Choose caution over carelessness. Your diligence can prevent infections. Even a little extra attention can spare you an avalanche of problems. Always take the time to do your part! Don’t visit questionable websites. Download software and updates from reputable sources only. And, of course, don’t skip installation steps. When available, use the advanced/custom setup wizard. Deselect the bonus apps and go through the terms and conditions. Don’t hesitate to abort an installation process if you notice anything suspicious!
Why is this dangerous?
The Gooooodle.com ads are just the beginning of an ad invasion. You are dealing with a parasite which constantly increases the number of its ads, as well as finds new ways to annoy you. What starts as an occasional banner turns into a whirlwind of pop-ups and hyperlinks. Its numerous advertisements, of course, burden your browser and make it prone to freezing and crashes. Don’t focus on the ads, though. They are just a symptom that clue you to the essence of the problem. If you take a close look at them, you’ll realize that you are in serious trouble. You are under surveillance. The “Brought to you by Gooooodle.com” ads are not random but targeted at you. They are based on the websites you visit, the links you follow, the videos you watch. Even your activities under the Incognito mode trigger offers. That’s how the adware operates. It studies your browsing habits and uses your preferences against you. Do you think that ends well? Do you feel comfortable knowing that any crook out there can target you? Do you believe that the adware collects information for advertising purposes only? Don’t fool yourself! The adware’s operators sell everything on the black market. Their practices could get you in serious trouble. Don’t test your luck. Remove the parasite ASAP!
