Suddenly Searchzillions.com took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
Searchzillions.com is a browser hijacker. It’s one of those tools, which are best left out of your computer rather than on it. Why? Well, because it’s hazardous, harmful, intrusive, deceitful, intrusive, etc. It’s a dangerous infection that should NOT be allowed to remain on your PC! You should delete it the second you realize it has slithered its way in. Otherwise, you’re only setting yourself up for a bad time. Pretty soon, you’ll regret the decision of allowing it to stay. Even though the tool is not malicious by design, it’s certainly used for malicious purposes. Its selling point is that it’s designed to help you. If only that were true. Unfortunately, it’s not. searchzillions.com can, and will, harm you, much more than it can help you. The hijacker is NOT worth even half the trouble it causes, so delete it at once!
How did I get infected with?
Like most hijackers, searchzillions.com invades your system without you even realizing it. It usually hitches a ride with freeware and infects your PC when you’re highly distracted while going through their installation. Most users are way too gullible and not nearly as attentive as they should. Your naivety and distraction result in you getting stuck with a hijacker. When you rush and are not as careful as you should before you know it, you get stuck with more than you bargained for. That’s because few people pay attention when installing freeware. No one reads the terms and conditions, and what they actually agree to. That makes it easy for hijackers to infect your PC without so much as a single obstacle.
Why is this dangerous?
Searchzillions.com is a typical browser hijacker. It keeps track of your browsing habits, and once it gets to know you better and understand what you like and dislike, it presents you with ads, corresponding to your interests. It floods you with “appropriate” pop-ups in the hopes that they will grab your attention enough to fool you into clicking on them. Clicks are imperative since each click generates pay-per-click profits and web traffic, which is the primary objective of the hijacker. The ads continue popping up until you finally make the decision to get rid of the searchzillions.com tool from your system entirely. But don’t expect it to make the removal process easy for you. Still, it’s worth the trouble to go through with it and delete the tool entirely! By removing searchzillions.com from your computer, you’ll save yourself a lot of headaches and problems.
