About Search2.fvpimageviewer.com Browser Hijacker

This bogus browser extension hijacks your default homepage (start page), new tab URL and search engine and sets search2.fvpimageviewer.com instead. It may install a shortcut on your desktop and append an argument to the startup. Thus, every time you launch your browser, you are redirected to search2.fvpimageviewer.com. This can happen with almost any web browsers, for instance, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, etc. Restoring your default homepage will only work for one browsing session. The next time you open your browser, you will be rerouted to the same main page of FVP search engine.

This search provider cannot be trusted since it promotes 3rd party advertising websites which, in turn, pay commission to the hijacker. These 3rd party domains are jammed with questionable pop-ups and other forms of ads. Search2.fvpimageviewer.com installs other modules on your browser so the legitimate websites are also crammed with 3rd party ads. Both the ads and the domains of 3rd party are considered a danger zone swarmed by all sorts of malware.

It is easy as pie since Search2.fvpimageviewer.com monitors your every online surfing session and exchanges this gathered data with 3rd parties for money.
