With my years of experience as a freelance website developer, I can say that I had encountered a lot of viruses in the past. Thanks to my antivirus, I managed to protect my system from those malicious programs. Yes it gets infected sometimes, but I can clean it up with my virus remover. However, these cyber criminals will not stop. They will continue to develop new viruses and malware to pick on internet users all over the world.
I love music and I would listen to songs wherever I am through my cell phone, particularly while working on my projects. I usually download songs from the internet. It was, I guess, the reason why I got this latest virus. The weird thing is that my virus detector did not alert me that a threat was on the way. It got into my system without my knowledge and started to gradually cause damages. The effects are so annoying.
The virus redirecting Google searches is known to us now as the Google Search Redirect Virus. It sneaks into our system without leaving a trace. That is why regular antivirus programs can't recognize it. I was surprised when I searched for classified ads. Instead of getting accurate results for my search, I landed on a porn site. The incident would just recur every time I enter a text on my search bar. That is when the idea of catching a virus came into my mind.
The sites where I would land contain a lot of ads. Most of these ads are fake. Clicking them is like widely opening a door for other viruses that would spread havoc to your system and install key logger codes to steal sensitive information from you.
I have lots of work to do and I am being timed for it. I can't bear with a malfunctioning browser. Besides, I could not afford to lose money for these hi-tech robbers. I had to get out of this mess at once. Without any hesitation, I immediately purchased an antimalware program. It solved the problem in a flash.
