Suddenly Search.myweatherxp.com took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
Search.myweatherxp.com is a browser hijacker. This tool shows up one day seemingly out of the blue and starts wreaking havoc. It announces its presence on your computer by replacing your preferred homepage and search engine. This switch comes as a surprise because users don’t even remember installing the tool in the first place, let alone agreeing to this change. But that’s just one of the “charms” of hijackers you’ll have to get used to. Once they get you to approve them in, they don’t have to ask for your permission before implementing changes to your system. That’s right. The hijacker can reshuffle anything and everything it so wishes, and you’ll just have to accept it. Do you think you can live with that? Being surprised by constant, daily changes? Don’t take such a colossal, unnecessary gamble for such a worthless and harmful tool. Delete Search.myweatherxp.com the first chance you get.
How did I get infected with?
Search.myweatherxp.com is a resourceful tool and, even though, it’s bound to ask for your approval before installing itself, it still has no problem sneaking in undetected. The tool relies on trickery and finesse to gain access to your PC. More often than not, it hides behind spam email attachments, corrupted links or websites, or freeware. It can also pose as a fake system or program update, like Java or Adobe Flash Player. Do you see the pattern? Either one of these means of infiltration relies on your distraction, haste, and naivety. So, if you wish to keep the hijacker away from your system, make sure to be more cautious and don’t rush! Try to remember that a little extra attention can save you a lot of troubles.
Why is this dangerous?
Once Search.myweatherxp.com invades your system, it’s free to change anything and everything, without bothering to ask for your approval first. Think on that for a second. If the hijacker chooses to, it can install as many malevolent tools as it so wishes. One day, you’ll turn on your computer and find it brimming with malware. How long do you believe your system will last until it gives in to The Blue Screen of Death? On top of this threat, you also run the risk of having your personal and financial information handed to strangers with agendas. That’s because as soon as the hijacker invades your PC, it starts keeping track of your online activities. It catalogs every move you make, and when it deems it has collected enough information from you, it sends it to the unknown third parties behind it. After they have it, they can do with it whatever they wish. The question is, are you going to let them? Do what’s best for you and your computer, and get rid of the hijacker as soon as you possibly can. Search.myweatherxp.com is not worth even half the troubles it causes.
