Suddenly AllMyWeb.com took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
AllMyWeb.com is categorized as a browser hijacker. Since you are reading this article, you must be seeing full-screen pop-up ads from AllMyWeb.com on your Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer web browsers. Also, you are probably redirected to that page every time you open a new tab. If this is your case, without doubt your PC has been infected with adware. The AllMyWeb.com pop-up will provide you with a search box and quick access to popular websites, still you should avoid using it because it is considered to be unreliable. AllMyWeb.com ads will keep popping up interrupting your online activity until you eliminate all adware on your computer. So make sure you do that as soon as possible.
How did I get infected with?
You know the reason for the appearance of AllMyWeb.com pop-up ads, but you probably do not know what led to infecting your system with the adware associated with the pop-ups. There is one thing for certain and it is that there is more than one adware program on your computer because they tend to travel in packs. Although it is possible to determine which is the one generating AllMyWeb.com pop-up ads, it is much harder to tell how it got installed on the PC. You could have downloaded a spam email attachment, clicked a dubious-looking ad, or installed suspicious freeware. Whatever the case, the result is the same. Hence, you should remember to be more careful while you are on the web.
Why is this dangerous?
If you think that as long as you ignore AllMyWeb.com pop-up ads everything will be alright, you are wrong. Of course, it is better to avoid interacting with the pop-ups, but that does not solve the problem. The more you let the existing adware remain on your system, the worse its performance will get and the more threats you will be exposed to. Apart from AllMyWeb.com pop-ups, the adware might also display third-party ads that contain links to malicious websites. What is more, it is capable of collecting information about your browsing habits, which will later be shared with unknown individuals. For all the reasons mentioned, you should immediately take measures to locate and remove all infections from your PC.
