How to Remove Feedgeo.com (Chrome/Edge/Firefox) | Updated

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

You recently started to get bombarded by numerous intrusive advertisements that are suspiciously related to what you’ve been searching or browsing on the internet? We hate to bring you bad news, but it looks like you’ve fallen victim to adware. The Feedgeo.com redirect is linked to such malicious software. Its presence on your browser just confirms that a cyber infection has taken place.

Adware is more than capable of monitoring every move you make while online. It will obtain data like browsing history and search results, in order to better customize the advertisements, so they are more likely to get clicked on by the user. The aim is to create income via the PPC (Pay-Per-Click) method. The thing is, not every ad you see online is guaranteed to lead you to a safe source.

Adware is commonly spread by infected links and ads, spam emails, torrent files, software bundles, fake update requests, etc. This parasite cannot hack its way on your computer by itself. It needs your help to get access. Most commonly, users unknowingly allow such cyber threats on their PC. How? By not paying attention to what they click on.

Often, adware sneaks through when the user opts for a Quick installation. This way, you’ll have no way of knowing if the software that you’ve installed, had any additional programs or applications, that were hidden from you and were automatically granted access to your computer, all because you were too lazy to do a security check and read a few lines of text.

When installing software, we highly recommend choosing Custom or Advanced mode in the Setup Wizard. This is the only way you’ll be able to view the full contents of what you’ve downloaded. If you notice any optional installations, we strongly suggest opting out of all of them, since they are most likely malware in disguise, just waiting to infiltrate your computer unnoticed.

Sure, adware might not be as dangerous as other viruses like Trojans or ransomware. Most users don’t even consider adware to be a real ‘virus’, since it limits its attack on browsers only. However, don’t go thinking that this parasite is harmless. You’ll be surprised to find out how powerful it actually is and what serious damages it can cause. We advise our readers to act quickly when they detect the presence of such malware.

You don’t want to stick around and see what thing it is capable of doing. Keeping it on your browser puts your online security and privacy at risk. It exposes your personal and financial data. Hackers rely on your naivety and will exploit this opportunity to get their hands on such valuable information. That’s why you need to act as soon as possible and remove this threat from your PC, before it is too late!
