About MyNetSpeed.co browser hijacker

MyNetSpeed.co is described as a tool that will help you to measure the speed of your Internet connection. There are tons of other free tools online that can help you to do this task – they are much more reliable, thus we do not recommend to use MyNetSpeed.co for this or any other purpose.

As you can see in the screenshot above, by testing the speed of your internet connection, you automatically agree to install this browser extension on your system. Once inside of your computer, MyNetSpeed.co will change some settings on your web browsers, such as your homepage or default search engine. It will also flood your web browsers with ads in all kinds of forms, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements. New tab or even window with ads on it can be opened at any time as well.

Ads displayed by MyNetSpeed.co usually appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon. You will be offered to purchase some goods or services at very appealing price rate. Do not fall for that trick. Most of the time those offers are fake, they are just trying to win your attention and make you click on one of those ads this way. And we don’t recommend to do that. If it happens so that you click on the ad displayed by MyNetSpeed.co you will be immediately redirected to other websites that might be owned by various cyber criminals, such as hackers or scammers. This way your computer can get infected with other viruses or if you attempt to purchase something there you can even get scammed and lose your hard earned money.
