But how do you agree to install a program and not even remember it? Well, that’s rather straightforward. You were duped. Such malicious applications use trickery and finesse to fool you into installing them while keeping you oblivious to it. To succeed in their deception, they usually turn to the old but gold means of infiltration. And, the hijacker, you’re stuck with right now, forcing Search.cantstopplaying.com on you all the time, is no exception.

Why is this dangerous?
Once your PC is compromised, and you’re stuck with a hijacker, you’re in for a pretty bad time. Since it slithers its way in undetected, at first, you don’t even know there’s a dangerous infection, residing somewhere in the corners of your computer. That quickly changes when the tool decides to reveal itself. Think of the page’s appearance as a warning sign. If you spot Search.cantstopplaying.com, accept there’s a browser hijacker on your PC. The quicker you do, and the faster you act, the better. To deny it or pretend like it won’t be disastrous for both you and your system, the worse your situation will get. The website is just the first step, the mere tip of the iceberg. It only worsens from there. As was already established, the hijacker clues you into its existence with the appearance of the page. Shortly after its infiltration, it switches your default search engine and homepage to Search.cantstopplaying.com. Every single time you attempt to go online, you’ll be redirected to it. How long do you think before this browsing intrusion goes from annoying to utterly infuriating? Before you answer, take into account that it won’t be the only one, you’ll have to put up with. Apart from the endless redirects, you’ll also have to deal with a never-ending stream of pop-up advertisements. Obnoxious, intrusive, unreliable pop-ups. With that in mind, can you answer differently than ‘Not long?’ Naturally, the troubles don’t stop there. The continuous online disruptions cause your system to crash frequently, as well as slow your computer’s performance to a crawl. But, as was already stated, all of these issues are considered ‘minor.’ They seem like a walk in the park, compared to the worst one, which the hijacker places upon you. The nasty, invasive tool threatens your privacy. It’s programmed to spy on you and steal your personal and financial information. Once it settles in your system, it starts to keep track of your browsing habits and catalogs your every move. When it deems it as gathered enough data from you, it proceeds to send it to the unknown third parties that published it. Think about that for a moment. Strangers will have access to your private life. They’ll have your private details at their disposal. Do you think that will end well for yourself? Why don’t you do yourself a favor and avoid all of these problems? Find and delete the hijacker, which managed to sneak into your PC, as soon as it first throws the Search.cantstopplaying.com page your way. You’ll save yourself a ton of time and energy, and your future self will thank you for your prompt reaction.
