  • START.SIVIEWER.COM is a browser hijacker that
    comes into computers by means of software
    marketing method named bundling. If your homepage
    is changed to START.SIVIEWER.COM, this means that
    the PC has been infected. You should take
    immediate actions to remove this web page. Though
    it appears as a search engine, it will not
    display any of correct search results to meet
    your needs. On the contrary, you will suffer from
    a bunch of searching ads. What will these ads
    bring for you?

  • For non-experience users, START.SIVIEWER.COM
    might be considered as a harmless web searching
    tool. Actually this website is defined as a
    browser hijacker that enters computers and
    modifies browser settings without users
    permission. You should be wary of this browser
    hijacker because you could get it downloaded
    unknowingly. Commonly, this kind of malicious
    website often comes along with suspicious
    freeware and fake browser extensions.

4
  • START.SIVIEWER.COM will take the place of your
    homepage as well as search engine once inside. It
    will also make you suffer from endless
    redirection. As a result, you cant visit other
    websites and perform other activities.

  • 2 If you find that its simply a case of your
    default search or home page having been hijacked,
    you may revert these settings back, via the
    browsers settings. But if it is more serious,
    like your links being redirected to other sites,
    being unable to open certain websites, etc, then
    maybe your Hosts file too could have been
    hijacked. You may need to reset your Hosts File.

  • 3 Flushing your DNS Cache is also something we
    would like to recommend, if you find that your
    browser has been hijacked.

    your Trusted Sites Zone

  • 5 You may also use the Reset browser settings
    tool of your web browser to reset all its
