TopArcade Hits Virus is a harmful application, which arrives from the same malware family as Searchnu. TopArcade Hits Virus enters the corrupted PC packed with other software products, third-party applications, such as freeware and shareware programs, and then alters system settings in order to execute damaging activities. While being installed, TopArcade Hits Virus starts interrupting the attacked computer user during online search sessions by showing annoying pop-up advertisements comparing prices and delivering so-called better solutions or deals. However, these pop-up advertisements are filled with a variety of web-links, so web user can't be sure that he/she won't be rerouted to the harmful website, which disperses a variety of security threats. TopArcade Hits Virus also shows numerous notifications and alerts. TopArcade Hits can be downloaded manually from several websites, which are used to push it. However, TopArcade Hits Virus can also invade the compromised PC without the victimized computer user's awareness. TopArcade Hits Virus hijacks the targeted web browser and diverts victims to insecure websites when they browse on the web.
