As we said, the Search.myway.com is the first thing you notice once you have been infected but, unfortunately, it is not the last. The site becomes your online shadow and appears at every turn. When you open your browsers, it is there. When you open a new tab, it is there. Do anything at all online, the page is still there. It even replaces your homepage and search engine completely behind your back. You were neither asked nor informed of the implementation. This is simply because you are not in charge of your browsers anymore. The pest is. It also injects them with countless annoying commercials. You are drowning in a sea of ads on daily basis.

But how did you get stuck with this PUP in the first place? The chances are you didn’t even notice when the infiltration happened. This is because the PUP tricked you into installing it.

Some of them include spam emails, corrupted pages, third-party ads, unverified download sources, illegitimate torrents, bogus updates, freeware/shareware bundles, etc.
Each infection can do the job IF you provide your inactive cooperation. By inactive cooperation, we mean your negligence. If you are in a rush and don’t pay attention, you click “yes” to everything and one of these yes`s was your permission for the PUP to enter. Be more careful. Carefully read what you agree to and don’t let infections dupe you. They pray for your carelessness. Without it, they cannot succeed.
