Vi-view.com

Vi-view.com is website promoting an image viewer, which is said to have advantages over other applications because of its speed, attractive user interface, and zooming capabilities. The application also enables users to manage their images on the computer, create thumbnails, and view pictures in 67 formats, including TIF, BMP, and PSD/RAW. Vi-view.com is the trademark of Flyingbird Technology Limited. The seemingly harmless application is known to be capable of changing the settings of Internet browser, including Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox. The category of the application depends on malware researchers, and it can be removed from a computer by a reputable spyware removal tool.

The Vi-view.com application can change the home page and the default search provider. More specifically, it sets mystart.vi-view.com as the home page, and searches.vi-view.com as the default search provider. If you do not want to use this search engine, take action to fix your browsers.

Similarly to other products, Vi-view may ask you to provide your personal information. Your personal information may be required when communicating with the company, ordering or registering products. Your personal information, such as email address and phone number is said to be for internal purposes only and is not sold, rented or shared with third parties. Nevertheless, you should be very careful with programs that change the settings of your browsers. Extremely close attention should be paid to those cases when the settings are changed without user interference.

Moreover, Vi-view may provide you with some online surveys in order to find out your preferences. You may be asked to provide your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, demographic information and some other personal information. If you do not want to receive newsletters or information about the latest products of the company, do not disclose your personal information to Vi-view.

We recommend that you remove the Vi-view.com application because it has been found that the application is related to the browser hijackers v9.com and 22find.com. It is possible to remove the Vi-view application manually by uninstalling it, but we recommend that you implement a powerful spyware removal tool. Our advice is to use SpyHunter because this application can remove the Vi-view and shield the system from numerous computer threats, including Trojan horses, rogue anti-virus programs, browser hijackers, adware programs, and many other threats.
