First we will take a look at what exactly is the Google Redirect Virus, and what it can do to your PC. If you already know, and are sure that your problem is related to the Google Redirect Virus skip this part and follow the removal guide below.
What does the Google Redirect Virus do?
Google Redirect Virus is first of all an annoying bastard. Created by clever online criminals, it installs itself through a Trojan, and is designed to manipulate your Google search results. It hides the normal search results and shows you fake advertisements related to your search, popups and other malicious sites. These sites are another source of Trojans, Worms, spyware and other malicious software. The biggest problems you could encounter are mainly the purchase of rogue software, or a wide variety of online scams. Relying on the world`s largest search engine, its effectiveness is due to the fact that it`s also hard to spot, novice surfers being frequently caught off guard.
I have antivirus protection, why doesn’t it work?
Lots of people rely solely on their antivirus program, which is not a bad thing if you have a competent strong AV, but not many are capable of detecting and removing spywares or of providing realtime protection. If you are pleased by your antivirus, even though it is limited, you may consider purchasing a strong antispyware tool. If your AV does indeed offer spyware protection, check if its database is out of date, make sure you update frequently or set it to auto-update. If you`re encountering problems while your antivirus is up to date, and also offers spyware protection, it probably means that it`s too weak and that you should look for a better one. DO NOT look for a new AV while you`re still infected with the Google Redirect Virus because you can end up with fake malicious AV programs.
