Suddenly Search.golliver.com took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
Search.golliver.com is a malicious and intrusive browser hijacker. The tool is incredibly harmful, and it should not be allowed to remain on your computer. The first thing you should do after you discover its presence is to delete it! If you choose not to, you’ll most certainly regret it. Once the hijacker slithers its way in and latches onto your computer, issues start piling up almost instantaneously. The first one, which will reveal that you have a dangerous infection lurking in your system, will be finding out that your default search engine and homepage were switched to Search.golliver.com. This change will appear one day, seemingly out of the blue. You will have no memory of giving your permission for it or even of installing the tool in the first place. And, yet, there it will be! That’s because after hijackers trick you into allowing them in, they can then implement any and all changes they so desire without bothering to ask for your approval. They can do whatever they want to, whenever they want do, and you’ll just have to accept it. Just imagine the consequences this can cause. Don’t take such a colossal risk! Don’t allow the hijacker to stay! Get rid of it as soon as you possibly can, you’ll save yourself a ton of headaches and troubles, and your future self will thank you for it.
How did I get infected with?
Search.golliver.com resorts to the usual antics when it comes to gaining access to your system. Yes, the tool is bound to ask for your permission before it installs itself, but don’t think that will help you in any way because it won’t. This tiny detail doesn’t slow the hijacker down one bit, and you don’t even see it coming. It’s so resourceful and masterful in its trickery that it has no problem fooling it. In fact, it’s so skilled that it not only dupes you into approving it in, but also manages to keep you oblivious to the fact that you did. More often than not, the tool sneaks in by hiding behind spam email attachments, corrupted links, or websites or by hitching a ride with freeware. However, it can also pose as a bogus system or program update. It leads you to believe you’re updating your Java or Adobe Flash Player, but, in actuality, you’re giving the green light to a hijacker. By the time you realize the mistake you’d made, the damage is already done. That moment of awareness hits you when you discover the first unapproved change – finding your search engine and homepage replaced. If you wish to avoid getting stuck with a hazardous hijacker such as Search.golliver.com, be sure to be more careful and don’t rush! Avoid haste, naivety, and distraction and remember that a little extra attention can go a long, long way.
Why is this dangerous?
Search.golliver.com is immensely hazardous and damaging! As was already stated, once the tool slithers its way into your system, it’s able to implement any change it so desires without bothering to ask for your permission first. It doesn’t even have to inform you. It can merely surprise you. Think on that for a moment. Imagine the surprise of turning on your computer and finding out that the hijacker has approved the installation of malware tools, which are now wreaking havoc. Yes, if the hijacker feels like it, it can choose to install as many malevolent tools as it wishes. Furthermore, it can also choose to reshuffle your system settings in a way that will block you from accessing your favorite websites. That may not be as harmful as being infected with malware, but it’s just as infuriating. But that won’t be the only infuriating issue you’ll be forced to deal with. Search.golliver.com will bombard you with pop-up ads every single time you try to browse the web. The waterfall of pop-ups will cease after you delete the hijacker altogether. Otherwise, you better get used to continuous redirects and pop-up ad interruptions, a slower computer performance, frequent system crashes, and a severe malware threat. Oh, yes. The ads are so immensely unreliable that if you click on even one, you’ll inevitably end up installing more unwanted malware on your PC. What’s more, the hijacker also presents you with a grave security risk. It jeopardizes your personal and financial information as it spies on you. It keeps track of your browsing activities and catalogs your every move. When it determines it has collected enough data from you, it sends it to the unknown third parties behind it. Are you willing to hand your private life to strangers with agendas? Think long and hard before you decide.
