I see popups or I am redirected to different websites

This problem can be caused due to a browser hijacker. A browser hijacker is a type of malware designed to change your browser's settings. A browser hijacker changes your web browser's home page and default search provider to a different one without your permission. The toolbars are usually bundled with certain free programs that you normally download and install. These bundles include a licensing agreement that you must accept to download and install the software. The agreement applies to all software in the bundle including the unwanted toolbars.
You may also experience some or all of the following issues:
  • Your search is getting redirected to different websites
  • Webpages load slowly
  • You see multiple toolbars on your web browser which you did not install
  • You get multiple pop-up alerts for advertisements
Download and run the Norton Power Eraser to scan and remove the unwanted toolbars. After you remove the unwanted toolbars, run a Rootkit scan with Norton Power Eraser to perform a deep scan on your computer.
