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

Do you constantly get redirected to the Geniustrainer.net page? Have your homepage and search engine been replaced by the same website? We hate to tell you this, but it looks like your PC has been infiltrated by a browser hijacker. This parasite is more than capable of modifying your browser settings and even installing questionable extensions, toolbars or add-ons on your browser, without bothering to ask for your permission. Once the cyber pest has established itself on all of your browsers, it will start generating numerous intrusive advertisements.

Most commonly, they are known to promote exclusive deals, special offers, one-time-only coupons and discounts, etc. The thing with such ad content is, that the adverts will be specifically targeted to appear more attractive to the user. This is all thanks to the hijacker’s ability to steal any web data you have like browsing history, surfing habits, search queries, etc. By using this data, it raises its chances of creating pay-per-click revenue.

Browser hijackers are sneaky parasites that will do anything to trick you into letting them on your computer. Often, they lurk behind spam email messages, email attachments and executable files, software bundles, dubious ads and links, infected torrent files, fake update messages and shady utility tools promotions. In order to make sure that your online presence is secure, you need to be diligent and pay close attention to what you click on.

Always make sure that you select Custom/Advanced mode in the Setup Wizard when installing software that you’ve downloaded from the internet so as to be able to see if there are any additional software that has been hidden from you. More often than not, they turn out to be malware in disguise. That’s why you need to follow our advice and stop opting for a Quick install. While it may save you time, it will not save you from a potential virus infection. Malware relies on your negligence and naivety. Do not fall into the trap set by hackers. Be diligent and follow our recommendation.

Browser hijackers are not harmless. Don’t make the mistake of underestimating its powers. Ads might not look dangerous, but sooner or later your browsers will start to struggle to display them all. With time, the number of the adverts will increase, and so your browsers will start to crash frequently, your internet connection will drop, you’ll even notice that your computer is slower than before. Not to mention the possible dangers that may hide behind the seemingly reliable ads and pop-ups.

Once you’ve noticed the presence of the annoying cyber parasite, you need to remove it from your computer, before it is too late! Do not waste time! Protect your online security and privacy! If you want to return to a normal and ad-free browsing experience, as well as make sure that your computer is safe from malware, we suggest you follow our detailed instructions, so you can learn how to get rid of this menace once and for all!
