Footybase.com Virus - How to remove

Footybase.com may look like a search engine, but this program does not have the basic feature of search providers, which is the search rendering. Its logo is Search, painted in the colors of Google. The tiny search bar below it contains the inscription Google Custom Search. But this does not mean that Footybase.com application is developed by Google company or is in any way affiliated with it, God forbid! The space below the search field is not empty, it is undertaken by the advertising window, lying in the centre of the main search page of Footybase.com fake search engine or, otherwise, a browser hijacker.

These are the shady advertisers, who cannot offer anything useful for you, no matter what they would promise you. Their offers are the bogus ones. The advertisements, which contain these offers, are often the infected ones. They can appear even on the legitimate websites of Google, or they can rest on their breeding ground – the dark domains of 3rd party, which stand side by side with the authentic web pages of Google, whenever you perform a search on this rogue search engine. Footybase.com is a false prophet, which guides you through the false roads, on which cyber pests are lurking.
