The Eanswers.com Virus

Your new search engine does not generate reliable search results. Oh, no. What it mostly shows you are sponsored links which crooks use to boost web traffic to particular pages and gain money via the pay-per-click mechanism. If you click, hackers make money. But this is not the worst part. By clicking you put yourself in danger. As we said, the links are compromised. They cannot be trusted.

Sometimes a single click is enough for you to infect your PC even more. Yes, there might be some safe links as well but you cannot tell which is which unless you click and that’s just too much of a risk. Aside from that, you are also bombarded with ads which serve the same malicious purpose. Numerous annoying adverts which additionally baffle your normal web surfing. As a result, your PC starts to underperform too. Don’t put up with this. Once you delete the intruder, everything will get back to normal. Do it now.

How to protect your machine better in the future? First of all, get yourself a reliable anti-malware program to help you. And second of all, pay attention. Infections turn to trickery and deceit to dupe you and invade your PC. For instance, they use spam emails, freeware, fake updates, corrupted pages and links, illegitimate download sources, unverified torrents, etc. and etc.

The infiltration methods are many but neither of them is good enough to work without your inactive cooperation, aka your distraction, haste, and negligence. That’s what hackers need the most. Without your carelessness, they cannot succeed. So, don’t be careless. Read carefully before you agree to something. Avoid shady pages and don’t click on every ad that comes your way. Use only verified download sources. Don’t open emails from strangers. All these little things could save you tons of troubles. Don’t forget that.
