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

The existence of the Adult.yourblocksite.com website on your computer means one thing – your browser has been infiltrated by a nasty browser hijacker. This malicious software can easily replace your homepage and preferred search provider with a custom page. In this case, it is the Adult.yourblocksite.com webpage. What’s more, you will get bombarded with a large number of adverts in all forms. Pop-ups, in-text, blinking alert messages, banners – every page you visit, you’ll get attacked with ads.

The thing is, they will be specifically targeted to look more appealing to the user. That’s all thanks to the hijacker’s ability to steal user’s browsing data like web history and habits, search queries, preferred pages, etc. The main goal is to create income through the pay-per-click or pay-per-view method.

Browser hijackers are most commonly distributed via spam email messages, email attachments and executable files, free software bundles, fake update requests, corrupted torrent files, shady links and ads, etc. Many users stumble upon update pop-ups that urge them to follow a questionable link, in order to update a program on their computer. Do not fall into such malicious trap! Always rely on licensed and official sources to get your software updates. Don’t just blindly trust a random pop-up that wants to trick you into clicking on a seemingly trustworthy link.

Also, when downloading software from the internet, the smart thing to do is to opt for Advanced/Custom mode in the Setup Wizard. This will give you the right to view the full content of that you’ve downloaded. If you notice any additional software, it is best to deselect such programs and applications, since that’s usually how malware tries to gain access on the unsuspecting users’ computers. By hiding in such software bundles, disguised as some useful app or program.

Browser hijackers are not real ‘viruses’ because they are known to attack their victim’s browsers only, not their computer systems. However, that does not make them harmless. On the contrary, they are very dangerous. Users might be one click away from unknowingly infecting their computer with a nasty virus.

You never know where the ads, generated by the hijacker, might reroute you to. They may lead you to an infected third-party website that aims to open backdoors for hackers. This will give a great opportunity for cyber criminals that seek to steal valuable information like IP addresses, Login ID, bank account credentials, credit card numbers, passwords, etc. Regain control over your browser and protect your privacy by removing this annoying parasite from your PC! If you don’t know how to do that, just follow our detailed instructions below.
