Captcha Glow is another browser hijacker application that, once inside a computer, will change the Web browser settings to take control of it. The Web browser settings altered by Captcha Glow will cause various unwanted problems, so it is clear that an application that is capable of messing up your Web browser without even asking for your permission should be removed from the affected computer as soon as possible.

Once Captcha Glow takes control of your Web browser, it will change your homepage, substitute your default search engine and you will not be capable of reverting the changes made by Captcha Glow. These changes aim to generate money for the people behind Captcha Glow, which happens every time the website it promotes gets a click.

Other unsafe features present on browser hijacker applications are their capacity to collect various details about the infected machine, use a considerable amount of the machine's resources, collect the user's information and use it to perform harmful actions or sell it to ill-minded third parties.

Security experts always recommend removing a browser hijacker from an infected machine. You can do it quickly and easily using an anti-malware solution.
