The Informationprotection.us website is another domain used by fake computer support agents that use GetProtected.info as well. Both domains are related to a browser hijacking software that is dispersed among PC users embedded with freeware installers. The browser hijacker related to Informationprotection.us works similarly to the one linked to GetProtected.info except showing pop-up windows. However, the homepage of users affected by the Informationprotection.us browser hijacker may be changed, and they may see it loaded every time they turn on their computers. The content on Informationprotection.us resembles BSOD error messages that are native to Windows systems but do not show in Web browsers and prevent users from operating their computers due to a severe system glitch. The messages on Informationprotection.us may claim that your OS is experiencing 0xb23fcc65, 0xc9d57428 and 0x00000050 errors and need to call 855-376-4628. However, users should remain calm and avoid calling the fake computer support agents at 855-376-4628 to avoid installing software like Antivir Solution Basic and RegFix Pro. The programs mentioned before are rogue security applications that are not designed to help users but to scare them and direct them to pay for services they will not receive. Additionally, the IP address 86.105.212.57 of Informationprotection.us is detected as a source of adware like AdvanceElite and Deal Fox. The browser hijacker linked to Informationprotection.us may use an executable DLL file that is adapted to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer to change your homepage. You might want to use a credible anti-spyware utility to remove threats associated with Informationprotection.us on your PC.
