Jangoram - How to remove

Jangoram is a browser hijacker which comes under the disguise of download optimizer. Specifically, this add-on is designed for Mac software. Thus, it mainly affects Safari web browser and is to be ‘‘looked through a magnifying glass’’ by Apple users.

About Jangoram Browser Hijacker

Jangoram browser extension replaces your default homepage and search engine with its own – search.jangoram.com. This happens immediately after the plug-in has gotten on your computer. Search.jangoram.com virus may act as a clickjacker since it may abruptly redirect you to the websites other than you enter. This redirection may result in your browser being unresponsive or, even, crashing. Not to mention the fact that your access to the certain domains are being violated. Furthermore, the sites you are being rerouted to threaten the security of your computer with creepy malware species.

The other side of Jangoram application is the adware nature. It generates numerous ads which are indicated by the following texts, ‘‘Powered by Jangoram’’, ‘‘Brought to you by Jangoram’’, ‘‘RocketTab powered by Jangoram’’, ‘‘Ads by Jangoram’’ or ‘‘Ads powered by Jangoram’’. These ads are displayed in various forms: pop-ups, coupon boxes, hyperlinks (in-text ads), banners, etc. In order to enhance this advertising campaign Jangoram records the URLs of your visited websites, IP location, search query entries, etc. This way ads are made to be more appealing and earn more clicks which, in turn, means that more PPC (pay-per-click) revenue is generated for the developers of Jangoram. This way of rerouting is not by any means less dangerous than the aforesaid redirection. It is pretty clear that you have to remove this plug-in from your computer’s system as soon as possible.

How does Jangoram Browser Hijacker Infect Your Computer?

Search.jangoram.com virus is bundled with freeware/shareware applications such as media players, video recorders, etc. The Internet is crammed with such free bundled installers. Moreover, they do not properly disclose about other software being installed along the actual apps. This suggests that you have to break the habit of quick installation. Read the documentation you are provided with (e.g. the Privacy Policy and the Terms and Conditions of Use). Next, switch to Advanced/Custom setup mode and go through the checkboxes to unmark preselected installs. In addition, resist the temptation of visiting unreliable domains such as torrents, gambling, gaming websites and the like.

No matter how devious Jangoram can be, reputable malware removal tools such as Spyhunter, Malwarebytes or StopZilla can easily erase it. Follow the removal instructions for Jangoram virus below, if you want to learn how to remove it manually.
