Remove Search Pile Homepage from Chrome/Firefox/IE

Suddenly Search Pile took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.

Search Pile is a browser hijacker. It uses slyness and subtlety to slither into your system, and once it’s in, it proceeds to make a mess. The more you permit it to stay, the bigger the mess is going to get. Do yourself a favor and don’t delay deleting it. Nothing good will come from the tool’s presence. You should perceive it as nothing more than an indication that bad things are going to happen to your computer. The longer you postpone removing it, the situation’s only going to grow from bad to worse until, one day, you’re greeted by The Blue Screen of Death. Does that sound like something to look forward to? Do what’s best for you and your system, and save yourself the time and energy of dealing with the hijacker’s ever-growing pile of daily problems. Remove it from your PC as soon as you become aware that it has infiltrated it, and your future self will thank you for it.

How did I get infected with?

Search Pile is required to ask for your permission before it installs itself. You might believe that this will help you spot it and prevent it from entering. You’d be wrong. This tiny detail doesn’t slow the tool down one bit. Not only does it get your permission to settle into your system, but it parades in right through the front door as you hold it open without even realizing it. That’s right. The hijacker dupes you into giving it the green light while keeping you oblivious that you did. How? Well, easy. The hijacker resorts to trickery and deceit. More often than not, it pretends to be a false system or program update, like Java or Adobe Flash Player. But don’t think that exhausts its arsenal of methods it can use to invade your PC. It doesn’t. Te hijacker can also sneak in undetected by hiding behind freeware, corrupted sites or links, or spam email attachments. As the tool relies on your distraction, naivety and haste to gain access to your system, perhaps if you don’t provide them, it won’t be successful in its attempt to infiltrate your computer. Try to remember that a little extra attention can only be beneficial, so don’t throw caution to the wind.

Why is this dangerous?

Search Pile is a hazardous infection you should NOT allow to remain on your computer! Immediately after infiltration, issues start piling up. The hijacker reveals its presence by initiating an unasked for and unapproved reshuffle – it replaces your preferred homepage and search engine with Search Pile. Now, you may have no memory ever giving your thumbs up for this change, but it’s nonetheless right there, in front of your very eyes! Do you wish to know why that is? Once the hijacker gets you to give your consent to its installation, it’s no longer bound to ask for your permission on anything else. Take a minute, so that sinks in. Can you imagine it? You’ll be stuck with a malicious, intrusive tool that’s free to perform any and all reshuffles it so desires. If it wants to, it can change your settings and block you from accessing your favorite and most commonly visited websites. So, say goodbye to Facebook and all of your other social media pages. Bye, bye! But that’s the least the hijacker can do. For example, if it feels like it, it can install as many malevolent tools as it wishes. Oh, yes. You better brace yourself for who knows how much more malware, which the hijacker is free to force upon you at any time it so feels like it. That’s something to look forward to, right? But even that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The hijacker also floods you with endless waterfalls of pop-up ads. Oh, yes. It exhibits the same traits as an adware application. It will not only infuriate you to no end by redirecting you to Search Pile, but it will also bombard you with pop-ups each and every time you try to go online. Other “perks” of having the hazardous tool as a guest on your PC include having your personal and financial information placed in grave jeopardy. Search Pile spies on you from the second it slithers its way into your system. It keeps a thorough record of every move you make, and when it decides it has gathered enough data from you, sends it to the third parties that support it. After these strangers get their hands on it, they can use it as they see fit. Do you believe this will lead to anything positive? Granting access to your private life to unknown individuals with questionable intentions? That’s NOT a good idea no matter how you look at it. Do the right thing. Protect yourself and your system be deleting Search Pile the very first chance you get. Or else, you’ll be forced to get used to that feeling of shock and dismay, and cleaning up the hijacker’s never-ending daily messes. Remember, the sooner it’s gone, the better!
