Symptoms of a Ninjaa.info-Related Malware Attack
The main danger of a Ninjaa.info-related malware attack is the fact that the victim's security software will usually be disabled or completely unable to detect the presence of malware related to the attack. This is because the TDSS rootkit has the capacity to disable security applications as well as creating a hidden system file within the victim's own drive which effectively hides other malware from security software. Because of this dangerous symptom, ESG malware analysts urge affected computer users to use a specialized TDSS rootkit removal tool. Browser redirects to Ninjaa.info are not normal in any way, even if your normally-reliable anti-malware software does not detect a problem on your computer system. Other symptoms of Ninjaa.info-related malware include the following:
- Constant redirects to the Ninjaa.info website, usually after achieving a search on a real search engine. This is because the Google Redirect Virus can change results of a web search so that they link to Ninjaa.info site instead of linking to their corresponding website.
- Changes to the victim's web browser settings. These include changes to the web browser turning Ninjaa.info into the default search engine and homepage.
- Severely decreased connection speed. An infected computer will often take several minutes to load even the simplest web page. Ninjaa.info-related malware can block certain websites, making Ninjaa.info particularly more dangerous than other similar browser hijacker infections.
