If Smartinf.ru replaces your default homepage automatically, it is a certain sign that there is a browser hijacker on your PC. These tools are specially designed to change the settings of your Web clients in a way that will benefit third parties. The modifications you may be experiencing tend to be highly annoying and potentially threatening, so you should scan your system to remove this hijacker immediately. The primary task of this suspicious extension is to redirect you towards Smartinf.ru as much as possible. Not only is it possible this Russian site to appear as your homepage but your Web clients may be forced to load Smartinf.ru at random intervals of time. You may see this page when you open new tabs as well. The platform itself is not threatening, and Smartinf.ru will not encourage you to install any corrupt software.
Smartinf.ru is a news site that contains numerous articles allocated in four columns. Most of them are interesting and well-written so you may spend quite some time on the page while reading them – in case you understand Russian, of course. What you should be careful for, though, are two things. First, the page contains a search box, which may place links towards sponsored sites at the best positions. Second, you may notice many ads on the sidebars of Smartinf.ru. In both cases, you should be vigilant because part of the partner sites may be unsafe. Some of the advertised pages may host potentially harmful software, or trick you that your PC is infected. Typically, the browser hijacker behind Smartinf.ru may enter stealthily alongside freeware. To oppose this 'bundling' method, always install cost-free tools through the 'Advanced' menu.
