Is there a useful way to solve the problem? Please help me.

The browser hijacker won’t ask your permission and get on your computer in silence. Some unknown navigation sites are actually green house where malicious and annoying programs or other threats grows up. When you enter these websites accidently and click on pop-up ads, malware quickly gets installed on your computer within several minutes. So users are not recommended to visit strange websites. To prevent clicking on unwanted ads, you’d better install Adblock Plus (a kind of browser extension). Another distribution technique called “bundling” is also welcomed by developers of the browser hijacker. Under cover of normal freeware or shareware, many unwanted programs can enter the target computer easily. Although users are not forced to install these bundles, the developers manage to lead you to choose them.

For example, the Standard option is selected automatically and recommended by the software when you are in the Setup Wizard. Options that are related to unwanted programs are also selected automatically. If you don’t deselect unwanted options by yourselves, malware gets on your computer by default. The running speed of the computer becomes slow because a number of unwanted programs are being installed. Most of the time, users are careless while installing. They should have stopped the program running in the background although they select unwanted options mistakenly. In a word, computer users should be more careful before they click on “Install” button.
