The Bnews.com adware lurks in the shadows of your OS and causes trouble. This parasite corrupts all installed web browsers and forces dozens of reshuffles on you. Chrome, Edge, Opera, Firefox, there is no immune program. The adware alters their setting and turns them into ad-displaying tools. This parasite injects various ads on every website you visit. You would notice that even pages that used to be ad-free are now heavy on banner and in-text adverts. The adware gets paid when you click on them. Thus, it doesn’t limit their number. Quite the contrary: the parasite floods your browsers with coupons and discounts. This aggressive advertising, unfortunately, is not harmless. It takes a toll on your device. The adware causes your system to perform poorly, and your browser to crash. These issues, however, are nothing compared to the things that happen behind your back.

How did I get infected with?

The Bnews.com adware is not an ingenious virus. It cannot hack your computer. The adware needs your permission to get installed. As you can imagine, though, there is a catch. The adware knows how to manipulate its victims. The parasite lurks in the shadows and waits for you to make a mistake. All it needs is one second of carelessness. So don’t make its job easier. Choose caution over carelessness. Bear in mind that no anti-virus app can protect you if you act recklessly. Only your caution can keep your device secure and virus-free. So, arm yourself with knowledge and be always vigilant. Parasites like the Bnews.com adware tend to hide in torrents, spam emails, corrupted links, and software bundles. To prevent these methods from succeeding, pay attention to the fine print. Download software from reputable sources only. When installing an app, opt for the advanced/custom setup option. More often than not, the apps we download off the web come bundled with extras, bonus programs. These extras, however, are often parasites like the Bnews.com hijacker. Make sure you know what you install on your OS. Under the advanced installation, you would be able to uncheck all unwanted apps. Also, before you click on that “Accept” button, read the terms and conditions. Abort the installation if you notice anything suspicious.

Why is this dangerous?

The Bnews.com adware is not a mere annoyance. This parasite is very hazardous. It opens your browser to surveillance and targeted ads. Confused? Well, as you know the adware spies on you. It knows your every online activity. It also knows how to use this information against you. If you, for example, enter “sneakers” into a search engine, the adware would display ads for sports shoes. You, however, should not expect the parasite to display legitimate ads. The Bnews.com adware gets paid to promote, not to guarantee your security. This parasite has no security mechanism. It doesn’t verify its adverts. Anyone willing to pay can use it to bombard you with various adverts. Numerous crooks do. They use the collected data to prepare customized adverts. They would then push these ads to your browser. The crooks show you what you want to see, but when you click, bad things happen. The adware may redirect you to dangerous websites. You may think that you can dodge this bullet by avoiding the adverts. Unfortunately, that plan won’t work. If you don’t click, the adware would redirect your browser to the sponsored websites. This parasite loads third-party web pages in new tabs and windows. Do not risk ending up on scam and infected web pages. Remove the Bnews.com adware before it gets a chance to lure you into an online trap!
