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

The Baby Setup ‘virus’ is categorized by IT specialists as adware. It is a malicious software that infects your browser and makes your online experience a living hell. This parasite is known to monitor your online activity and steal your web data such as but not limited to surfing history and habits, as well as search queries. After processing this information, the adware moves on to generate a specific kind of advertisement that the user is most likely to click on. Such ads can be in-text, pop-ups, blinking messages or banners.

Often, such content will promote some sort of exclusive deals and offers, special sales and coupons, discounts, fake update requests, etc. The main goal of adware is to create revenue via the pay-per-click method.

The most common means of adware distribution is by spam email messages, email attachments and executable files, free software bundles, corrupt torrent files, shady links and ads, etc. In order to prevent such a malicious infection, we recommend our readers to avoid opening emails from unknown senders, especially if they contain attachments. More often than not, spam emails turn out to be infected by some type of a virus that seeks access to the computer of the oblivious victim.

Also, users should be cautious when they download software from the internet. It is best to opt for a Custom/Advanced installation process. Only this way you will be able to have full control over what actually gets installed on your computer. If you see any suspicious looking program or application, you can simply deselect it.

In addition to being very intrusive, the Baby Setup adware is also more than capable of compromising your online privacy and security. That’s why it is often called a ‘virus’. In reality, it is not a real virus, because it doesn’t infect your computer system. However, don’t think that this malicious parasite is harmless. It might not be as dangerous as a Trojan Horse, but that doesn’t mean that you should underestimate its abilities.

Behind the ads and pop-ups generated by this malicious pest, can lurk hidden dangers. You may be one click away from a potential virus infection like a Trojan, worm or even ransomware! Adware is not something you should keep on your computer. In order to return to a secure and ad-free browsing experience, you need to remove this malicious parasite from your PC as soon as you notice its presence!
