According to our researchers, Normandoh.com might be distributed through bundled software installers. It means the application could be offered together with other unreliable programs. Such setup files might be spread through torrent and other untrustworthy file-sharing web pages. It is crucial to know some bundled installers show additional suggestions only if the user chooses advanced or custom installation. This is why we recommend selecting this option whenever possible if you do not want to receive unwanted tools unknowingly. There is also a possibility the browser hijacker could be spread via suspicious pop-ups or similar advertisements. Therefore, provided you do not want any questionable software on your computer, we advise staying away from suspicious ads, especially if they offer tools you have never heard of.

After being placed on the user’s browser (the application is compatible with Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer), Normandoh.com should replace the user’s default search engine with itself. The problem is it searches the Internet with a modified Yahoo search engine, which means the gathered results could be altered before being displayed. During this process, the browser hijacker might place additional advertising content from various third parties. Given the application’s End User License Agreement and Privacy Policy statements say its creators do not take any responsibility for third-party advertising content, it might mean some of it could be unreliable. For example, the ads could promote similar browser hijackers or untrustworthy programs, potentially dangerous web pages, and so on.

We do not say you will necessarily come across unreliable advertising content while browsing with Normandoh.com, but there is such a possibility. Naturally, knowing there are more reliable search engines to choose from, our researchers advise not to take any chances with this browser hijacker. If you decide to get rid of the application, you have a couple of options. The easiest one is to install a reliable antimalware tool and let it remove Normandoh.com from your browser. The other option is to try to erase the browser hijacker manually. This task could be rather complicated. Our researchers say it is because the user has to remove the application, the threat came with, and unfortunately, we cannot know its title. What we suspect is it might be some browser extension, probably the one installed right before the browser was hijacked.

Therefore, for users who wish to remove Normandoh.com from the browser, we would advise resetting their browsing applications. Doing this should erase all suspicious extensions or other content that could be related to the browser hijacker. The instructions located below this article will explain how to reset Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer, so if you need any help with this task, feel free to use them.
