Hey, I need help. I was hacked.
I recently installed a program that came with an attachment containing a virus. It managed to bypass my antivirus protection. Now whenever I open Google Chrome, it always redirects me to Yahoo, and I can't use Google directly unless I visit the site myself. Repeated searches bring me back to Yahoo as well. Anyone know how to fix this issue? P.S. I don’t have a toolbar or extensions, and it seems my browser doesn’t crash on its own—it just goes to Yahoo instantly. The problem might be related to the virus, but my computer specs are good, so it’s not my fault. Thanks for your help!
Open the control panel and search for a suspicious program, or explore your browser settings. It’s really easy to delete such items
I've faced similar problems with certain viruses and adware. You should use ADW Cleaner, an antivirus, for a complete scan—either a paid version or a full one (like Bitdefender). This should resolve the issues; if not, there are other solutions available. Let me know if this didn't help. You might also try reinstalling your browser.
I have an alternative script ready for you, malware bytes will notify me, and I'm happy to share it with you at Cookiecrumbles222.
