Goo.glesafe.com Removal
What is Goo.glesafe.com?
Goo.glesafe.com is a browser hijacker that gets distributed along with potentially unwanted applications. It is a clone of Bogots.com and Pesquisa.ninja. The hijacker enters your PC and takes over your browsers by altering your set preferences. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with Google Search. The hijacker was created for the sole purpose of making money for its developers. It will not bring you reliable search results, or any other beneficial features, so there is no point in keeping it installed. We suggest that you terminate Goo.glesafe.com as soon as you can.

How does Goo.glesafe.com work?
Goo.glesafe.com mainly spreads through free software bundles. It is presented in freeware’s installation wizard as an optional offer. Computer users usually miss this offer and thus agree to adding the hijacker without even realizing it. That is why it is important that you pay attention to every step of the installation wizard and decline all offers of unfamiliar applications. The hijacker may also be promoted through misleading pop-ups that may claim to distribute Java, Flash Player, and other software or its updates.
The main symptom of the infection is rather obvious: it replaces your home page and default search provider with Goo.glesafe.com. This site does not contain anything other than a search box. If you enter a query into it, you get rerouted to br.search.yahoo.com. The results that are provided to you on page are relevant, however, they also contain ads and sponsored links. These links should not be trusted. The same can be stated about other adverts that will be shown to you online as well as the pages that you may get redirected to because of the hijacker. If you want to go back to normal Internet surfing, you should waste no time and eliminate Goo.glesafe.com without hesitation.
