Raven Point Attachment

Raven Point Attachment is a program that falls into the gray zone between a direct computer security threat and a potentially unwanted application. Our research team says that this program is a browser hijacker because it modifies your browser’s settings without your explicit permission. Luckily, this program works only on the Chrome browser, so its effect is not far-reaching. At the same time, it also means that you can delete Raven Point Attachment from your system without much difficulty. Programs like browser hijackers should be terminated immediately because they can easily expose you to potentially harmful content even if they do not mean it.

When this program arrives at your computer, you will soon see that something is wrong because it changes your default search engine. After a while, Raven Point Attachment may also start displaying commercial advertisements. Now, why would this program promote commercial content if the main thing it does is change your default search engine? The thing is that browser hijackers enter target computers because they need to make money. Unlike Trojan infections that tend to log key strokes and steal other sensitive data, Raven Point Attachment depends solely on your web browsing habits, likes, and preferences.

Why is that so important to a browser hijacker? This program needs to collect information about your web browsing habits because it needs to “know” what kind of content it can promote to you. For instance, if you always look for various hotels, Raven Point Attachment might end up displaying commercial ads with various hotel deals around the world. Every single time you click those ads, you would generate a financial profit for the people behind this hijacker via the pay-per-click system. This scheme is not illegal, and you might even think that the program can provide you with useful information.

However, there are certain security issues you cannot ignore when it comes to third-party commercial advertisements. The thing is that Raven Point Attachment cannot review the commercial content it displays. It means that while some ads might provide you with relevant information, there will also be such pop-ups that will contain outgoing links to potentially harmful sites. Hence, there is a chance to get infected with malware via the Raven Point Attachment ads. Knowing that you need to do everything to avoid that, and the best way to protect your system from harm is to remove this browser hijacker for good.

Our main concern is that at first users may not realize that Raven Point Attachment is a potential threat. This browser hijacker must have entered their computers in a software package, so they were initially focused on downloading some other application. However, once this program enters your computer, you will see that it will redirect your traffic to clever-find.com, and then the redirection will take a few more loops via blpsearch.com and yahoo.com. It clearly shows that the program tracks your online activity and your search keywords to figure out what content it should display in its ads.

This program mostly spreads in India, Saudi Arabia, Croatia and Bangladesh, although it is obvious that there are no national borders when it comes to potentially harmful programs. And you must be reading this description because you are looking for ways to remove Raven Point Attachment. Thus, scroll down to the bottom of the article for the manual removal instructions.

Nevertheless, when you remove Raven Point Attachment from your computer, do not forget to run a full system scan with the SpyHunter free scanner. As you can probably tell, this browser hijacker could be just one of the many security issues currently plaguing your system.

If you need help protecting your system from potentially unwanted programs, you can always acquire a legitimate security application for that. Also, your web browsing habits are important in ensuring your system’s safety, too. Since users often download browser hijackers themselves without even realizing it, you have to recognize the potential threats behind third-party software sources and a number of other websites that could be related to freeware distribution.

Finally, if something goes wrong and you feel that you cannot terminate this browser hijacker on your own, please do not hesitate to leave us a comment. Our team is always ready to assist you.
