V9.com

V9.com is one of those browser hijackers that are hard to recognize at first. That is so, because V9.com does its best to play its part of a legitimate search engine, by providing you with genuinely relative search results. Nevertheless, you should be able to notice quite soon that there are a lot of sponsored links among V9.com search query results, and then clicking on those links leads you to websites absolutely irrelevant to your search. Therefore, you must remove V9.com from your computer right now, because you can never know what other potentially unwanted programs might exploit V9.com to get into the system.

Getting exploited by malevolent third parties is the main issue with V9.com. It functions similar to Qone8 Virus, PortaldoSites, Delta-Homes and other browser hijackers from the same group. The thing is that rather than infecting your system with malware, V9.com exposes you to possible infections, revealing various system vulnerabilities, and displaying its own security loops out in the open. Basically anyone can embed third party pop-up ads into V9.com if they know how to. And since V9.com is not responsible for a third party content, it cannot be blamed for the fact that you could possible get infected with a malware program after having clicked on a particular pop-up advertisement. After all, you click it yourself.

Therefore, refrain from clicking any commercial advertisements that reach you via V9.com. Do not forget that this browser hijacker uses tracking cookies to collect data on your web browsing preferences, so do not be surprised to see pop-up ads related to your likes and preferences. That is done in order to push you into clicking a particular advertisement, as the third party which embeds it usually thrives on pay-per-click advertising, so spamming you with such pop-ups is one of the main V9.com’s tasks.

Needless to say, that this information collected by V9.com could be used for marketing and even malicious purposes, and so you must not allow a browser hijacker to be in possession of any type of data related to you or your system. Remove V9.com right now, and then perform a full system scan with SpyHunter free scanner to make sure that your PC is really clean, and there are no other potential threats on board. Do not hesitate to invest in a powerful antimalware tool if need be.
