Symptoms and solutions for Virus Hijacked Browser
If you notice that any of your browsers like Internet Explorer, Firefox or Chrome browser suddenly start
to behave erratically, it could very well mean your browser has been hijacked. Browser hijacking is
usually an attack by malicious software that changes your Web browser's settings.
Here are some symptoms that could help determine if your browser has indeed been hijacked:
Browser home/start page changed to an unwanted site
New favorites, bookmarks, toolbars, or desktop shortcuts that you did not add
Typing a URL into the address bar and being taken to some other URL instead
You default search engine has been changed
Inability to access certain sites, particularly anti-malware sites that might help you
Your Internet security settings have been lowered without your knowledge
Endless pop-up ads for things you don't want to see
Sluggish computer response; malware often slows your whole system down
