Asdvd.info

Asdvd.info's description makes enticing offers of free games, parenting information and other topics that would be of interest to the average web surfer, but you should treat visits to Asdvd.info with a modicum of paranoia, since Asdvd.info has been noted both for its promotion by Google redirect attacks and for its usage of a design scheme that's widely used by similar websites. While links from Asdvd.info are likely to provide you with irrelevant or advertisement-based content, Asdvd.info-promoting browser hijackers may censor your search results to prevent you from using other search sites and finding PC security information. Accordingly, redirects to Asdvd.info should be considered a direct attack against your computer and responded to via good anti-malware software in an appropriate scanning environment (such as Safe Mode), although contact with Asdvd.info, by itself, may not cause harm to your PC.

Asdvd.info – a Great Way to Find Other Sites Like Itself (But Not Actual Search Results)

Although Asdvd.info does look like a normal, if bare bones search engine, SpywareRemove.com malware research team has noted that Asdvd.info is nearly identical to Ninjaa.info, Dbgame.info and Envoyne.info, three other sites that also noted for browser hijacker-related marketing. Even more worryingly than that, however, is the fact that Asdvd.info's actual search functions appear to be second-rate or even nonexistent, eschewed in favor of providing links to similar types of iffy search sites and finding ways to profit off of click fraud. Until these issues are resolved, you may want to be careful around both Asdvd.info and sites that are promoted by Asdvd.info, since they may result indirectly in exposure to PC threats or other attacks.

Although redirect attacks to Asdvd.info are, at the time of this writing, explicitly limited to redirects from Google, SpywareRemove.com malware experts also warn that browser hijackers that are responsible for these attacks may also redirect you to other sites besides Asdvd.info and its clones. Other redirect destinations of varying levels of maliciousness include Happili.com, the Puma search sites (such as Loanpuma.com or Buffpuma.com) and Addedsuccess.com.

Putting the Asdvd.info Genie Back in Its Bottle

Some of the above sites have been noted to be involved in distribution of malicious software, which mandates the necessity of removing any Asdvd.info-related browser hijacker as soon as you can access an appropriate anti-malware program. Because failure to remove such Asdvd.info-associated PC threats can often be a product of scanning your PC while the relevant threat is still active, you should also consider booting into Safe Mode, from the Command Prompt or an external device. Until you disable your Asdvd.info-redirecting browser hijacker and related PC threats, you may also experience other browser-related attacks, inclusive of:

• Search results that have their advanced features (such as Google's Image and Video functions) disabled.
• Blocked access to PC security websites that could help you remove an Asdvd.info-related browser hijacker, or to websites that contain Google-affiliated services (such as Gmail and YouTube).
