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

AnytimeAstrology (by MyWay) is a nasty cyber infection. The program promises to provide accurate search results and horoscopes but it doesn’t deliver. AnytimeAstrology is a browser hijacker. It was created for the single purpose of serving hackers` malicious purposes. It was never meant to be beneficial to you in any way. And it truly isn’t. The best thing to do after realizing it is on board is to remove it ASAP. If you leave it be, it won`t be long before you regret it.

Hijackers are very intrusive and irritating pests. They make a complete mess of your machine. Don’t think that AnytimeAstrology is an exception. No. It operates the same way and creates nothing but problems. Find it and delete it before it gets out of control. Because it will, eventually, and then things will worsen. There is no place for such a pest on your system. The sooner it is gone, the better.

Once in, the hijacker doesn’t waste time. The intrusions start immediately. The pest starts making modifications in your browser settings without any permission of yours. It replaces your homepage and previous search engine with its own malicious domain. This means that every time you go online, you will be forced to deal with the hijacker. This new search engine of yours is not reliable though. It does not provide accurate results as advertised. What it does provide is sponsored links which boost web traffic and help crooks make money via the pay-per-click mechanism.

This is what the hijacker is used for: to help cybercriminals become rich. You are helping them too. You are becoming their sponsor just by keeping the hijacker on board. Not only that, you risk downloading more malware. By clicking you are not only generating pay-per-click revenue, you are also risking compromising your machine even more. Nothing the hijacker shows you can be trusted and a single click is all it takes for you to bury yourself deeper in trouble.

There might be some perfectly safe links on your screen but you cannot tell them apart from the infected ones which are the majority anyway. Do you see how the hijacker demolishes your previously normal and enjoyable web surfing? You are constantly redirected to shady pages and bombarded with questionable links, ads and fake updates. Your machine, in general, starts to underperform because of these shenanigans. And yet, this is not all. The hijacker also spies on you, collects information and reports back to its developers. Put an end to this before things get ugly. Use our removal guide below and get rid of AnytimeAstrology immediately.

How did you end up infected with the AnytimeAstrology hijacker? The pest has an official website so we guess it is possible that you downloaded it my mistake and without knowing what it is and what it does. However, it is much more possible that the pest tricked you into agreeing to its installation. This is what these parasites do. They use tricky tactics in order to enter victims` machines. One of the most commonly used ones is called freeware bundling. The crooks attach the malware to another program and you do the rest by not being careful when installing said program.

Pay extra attention during all installation processes. Always read the Terms and Conditions before accepting them. Don’t skip steps and don’t rush. Take your time to understand what you agree to. Also, choose the Advanced settings in the Setup Wizard instead of the Standard ones as they allow you to see if there are any “bonus” apps which are about to be installed with the original program. If there are, you better deselect them. Usually, such extras are infections. You don’t need them. Be vigilant as this is the only way to keep your PC clean.
