Browser Protect Virus Removal Guide

Do you know what Browser Protect Virus is?

Browser Protect Virus is a computer application available at browserprotect.org. It claims to be a reliable computer program that helps to keep your browsers safe from browser hijacking. According to the information on the website, Browser Protect supports Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome browsers. At first glance this application seems to be a reliable computer program, but it is involved in shady distribution tactics and it cannot protect your browser from harm, so you must remove Browser Protect Virus from your PC right now.

Aside from the official website at browserprotect.org, the application can be downloaded together with freeware applications (from third party websites) or even via torrent downloads. At first sight, Browser Protect Virus does not look dangerous at all. However, if you choose to go on with the "malware" removal that this application suggests, you will notice that it immediately opens or redirects you to Facebook's home page. If you log in to your account, Browser Protect Virus can hijack it and then share links to its own official websites on your wall. If you notice your own Facebook account or your friend's sharing links to browserprotect.org, change your password immediately and inform your friends about the possible scam.
