How to remove 7go(www.7go.com)

What is  www.7go.com

 

7go  is a browser redirect that redirect you to www.7go.com. Every time when you open a new tab, it will redirect you to the www.7go.com. This is a tricky virus as it gets into your computer without your knowledge until you find your homepage and default engine are changed. Every time when you open a new tab or go to other page, it will redirect you to the www.7go.com . Besides, 7go.com can trigger more ads popped up when you navigate other sites. When it is running in your computer, it can slow down computer’s performance as it takes up limited resource, like main memory.  That could explain why your computer freeze or crash occasionally.


The main goal of the hacker who developed this nasty browser hijacker is to gain profit, namely promoting webpage flux. If more people use this webpage as homepage and default engine, more companies will come to them and want to drop more ads in the webpage or sort out what  you searched and then pop up related ads. That may explain why there are more and more ads or always some ads related to the search queries. This sounds horrible. It did, because that means hacker can not only record your search queries but also your private information like account and password.

Some free programs are bundled with www.7go.com and if you do not uncheck when you install other programs, it will increase your possibility of being infected. Second is viewing the insecure sites. Those sites usually are compromised and loaded with ads and pop ups. If you click those ads, links or pop ups, you pick it up. www.7go.com can install  in your computer automatically. If your computer is infected with  www.7go.com, you’d better remove it before it makes more damage to your computer or you can turn to 24/7 online experts for help.
