How to Remove En.uc123.com (Chrome/Edge/Firefox) | Updated

I wrote this article to help you remove En.uc123.com. This En.uc123.com removal guide works for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

The appearance of the En.uc123.com site is a sign. A bad one. The page is a clear indicator of a cyber infection on your machine. That’s right. Your PC harbors a browser hijacker. Needless to say, you have to take immediate measures to remove it. The longer the hijacker stays, the more problems it causes. Luckily, the pest is not that hard to remove. There are some much more dangerous infections roaming the web. Like ransomware and Trojan horses, for example. This, however, doesn’t mean that the hijacker is harmless. Of course, not. It is still a parasite and you cannot expect anything beneficial to come out of its presence. On the contrary.

The hijacker will throw an avalanche of issues at you and these issues will keep on piling up unless you do something about it. You have to remove the hijacker ASAP. Once you spot the En.uc123.com page, take it as the warning it is and heed it. Then, start looking for the infection`s hiding place and when you find it, delete it on the spot. This malicious program was not developed to be helpful to you. Do not fool yourself. Cut its stay short. This is the best course of action you can take, so take it.

The nasty program adds a pesky extension to all of your browsers immediately after setting on board. This plugin works perfectly with Chrome, Mozilla, Microsoft Edge and any other browser that you might be using. This means that all of your browsers are infected now. They are under hackers` control and injected with numerous ads. Aside from this, your previous homepage and search engine are gone too. The infection replaces them with its own malicious domain and you were not even informed about the switch. Now, whenever you decide to go online you have to use the En.uc123.com. It is your online shadow. But beware. Your new search engine does not provide safe and accurate search results. What it provides is quick access to malware.

The links you see are corrupted. At least, most of them are. If you click, you allow infections to be installed on your PC. Not only that, though. You also help hackers gain pay-per-click revenue at your expense. The same goes for the numerous ads you get bombarded with on daily basis. They also serve crooks` malicious purposes. You click, they get money. And all of this for what? Your browsing experience is effectively destroyed. Your machine underperforms too. And, you are always a single click away from malware. Do not put up with that. Use our removal guide below and delete this intruder immediately. If you don’t, you will regret it sooner or later.

How did the hijacker enter without you noticing? The answer is simple. The pest tricked you. It probably arrived bundled with another program and you, being distracted and in a rush, didn’t realize. Freeware bundling is one of the most popular infiltration tactics. It is preventable, though. If you pay more attention and don’t rush, you have a good chance of catching the pest on the spot.

Next time you install something, take the time to read the Terms and Conditions before accepting them. If you skip them, you may agree to something you are totally against. Also, go with the Advanced settings in the Setup Wizard. This way you can see all “bonus” apps which are about to be installed together with the program you originally wanted. Deselect them all. You have that option. You are not obliged to install everything in the bundle. And you shouldn’t. Such extras are usually infections. Deselect them first and then you can still install the app you wanted in the first place.
