aartemis.com

The last thing you should do right now is use aartemis.com as an authentic and useful search engine. It is not at all reliable and it is quite possible that by using it you will put your own virtual security in danger. As research shows, the website has been developed by Koyoter Technology Limited, and the reason why we categorize it as a browser hijacker is because it often takes over web browsers illegally. Have you discovered that your regular home page and search provider have been replaced without your notice or consent? Then a browser hijacker must be running on your computer. Even if your browser settings have not been modified and you are not worried about aartemis.com removal, you should not use this search engine because it cannot provide authentic search results.

Have you already used aartemis.com to search for information? If you have you must know that all Web, Images, Videos and News searches are transferred to Yahoo search. Needless to say, Yahoo is not considered to be a highly malicious search engine; however, it is not recommended to use search engines which can redirect you to secondary sources. Another reason why it is recommended to delete aartemis.com from your browsers, if the infection has been infiltrated, is the related advertisements. Have you discovered suspicious banner adverts on the page itself or are your browsers bombarded with in-text and pop-up advertisements? Either way you should not trust any ads because they could be used to redirect you to a variety of unreliable sites. In the worst case scenario, the content presented through these advertisements could even be used to drop malware and leak your private information.

As research shows, it is not so simple to delete aartemis.com from the browsers and the operating system altogether. Whilst to some computer users it will be enough to remove aartemis.com from browsers manually, others are likely to discover malware regeneration. This is something that can be related to other browser hijackers, including isearch.omiga-plus.com and dosearches.com, as well. This is one of the reasons why we recommend installing automatic malware detection and removal software to delete the infection. Reliable tools will remove all existing malware and ensure that schemers cannot attack your PC again. Click the download button below to acquire SpyHunter, a reliable Windows protector.

    Hey bosspecops and angrygirl,

    If you followed all instructions and all is done only one thing left to check .lnk file target.

    1. click Rightmouse button on your Chrome, Firefox or IE browser shortcut.
    2. Select Properties
    3. Click the Shortcut tab.
    4. Locate the Target box and modify the represented line so it would end with chrome.exe”, firefox.exe” or iexplore.exe”, depending on your browser.
    5. Click OK

    Gives us a feedback about your success

    Hello Adi and Max,

    If these instructions are not working for you I suggest you to download free scanner and scan entire system. Maybe there is something more then aartemis.com infection.
