Search.trackmyflight.co is bothering you every time you open a web browser? That’s a clear sign that your computer is infected and in danger.
Search.trackmyflight.co is described as a free tool that will provide you with quick access to the flight essentials – book and track flight and get quick information about airport parking. Those features might look cool, but we are here to inform you that they are useless – it’s just a way to direct some traffic to affiliated websites.
So if your computer is infected with Search.trackmyflight.co, this website will appear as a homepage on your web browser and it will pop-up every time you try to search for something. It is originally a browser add-on but it can make changes on your web browsers – set a new homepage and change default search engine. By the way, you will be not able to change those settings back until this infection is removed from your computer so it can be really irritating.
It is yet another malicious extension that was produced by Polarity Technologies LTD. We already discussed some of the malware they have developed, such as Search.easyrecipesnow.com or Search.classifiedseasy.com. Both of those web browsers are almost identical to Search.trackmyflight.co, the only difference they are promoting similar websites. However, they have on trait that is completely the same – it is the promotion of Weatherly application. Weatherly application is also a browser extension, that once installed should be displayed as additional toolbar and provide you with weather forecast in your area all the time, regardless of the website you are using. However, this tool is just a waste of time because it is not accurate and due to the fact that it is aggressively promoted by malware, we consider it to be unwanted as well.
Other websites promoted by Search.trackmyflight.co are no good to, they will bring no value to your web browsing and might get you in trouble. One of them, called news.mynewswire.co and looks like a website of fake news. The one that you see shared on social media because of click-bait titles. Who stands behind this website is not clear since whois information is protected and hidden. So the business plan of Search.trackmyflight.co is plain simple – they hijack web browsers and redirect users to websites like this. There are tons of ads and sponsored articles that you don’t want to have anything in common with.

Scan your system with either one of them and the virus will be vanished within several minutes.
