  • SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO is a normal home page hijacker
    that uses unknown search engine. This adware
    override start-up page and new tab on internet
    browser application. If you have SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO
    on the computer, it only indicates that
    potentially unwanted program is taking command on
    your browser settings. SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO has this
    objective of changing the default search engine
    with its own due to ads that it will display on
    the search result.

3
  • This is very profitable as far as adware makers
    are concerned. They do not care even if having
    those invasive ads are annoying to computer
    users. For this main reason, many users perceived
    SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO as some kind of virus attack.
    The truth is, this browser hijacker is just a
    mimic of Search Shield adware.

4
  • Technically, SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO is not regarded as
    computer virus. Even though majority of adware
    behaves like a virus, they were not made to be
    infectious. In particular, SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO does
    not spread on its own. It needed a carrier like
    freeware or shareware. Adware authors used to
    bundle this browser hijacker to other programs
    and made its installation unseen. While
    installing freeware, SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO also gets
    installed in the background without taking users
    permission.

5
  • When SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO begins to engage your
    browsers home page or new tab, we can assume
    that adware is present on the computer. This
    attack can be track down to recent installation
    of third-party programs that you may have
    obtained from suspicious web sites. Most computer
    users are clueless, but majority of free programs
    are packed with adware including
    SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO. This adware is normally bundled
    to download manager, free games, utilities, bogus
    software update and many more.

6
  • SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO may not arrive on its own. It
    may also install extensions and other unwanted
    apps on the browser. As you can observe,
    SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO tries to dominate the browser.
    Publisher of this browser hijacker is very eager
    to set SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO as the default home page
    and search engine. It even proclaims to protect
    your searches every time if SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO is
    added on Chrome browser. Once you are committed
    to this unwanted search, it will begin to issue
    various types of advertisements that aims on
    generating online profit.

7
  • With encountered troubles and annoyances, some
    computer users deemed SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO as some
    form of virus infection. However, security
    experts put this browser hijacker in the list of
    Adware or PUP. SEARCH.GOMAPS.CO is less hazardous
    and does not infect files on the computer.
    Furthermore, it requires users action to get
    installed. This is the reason why authors of
    adware are employing various deceptive schemes to
    market their products.
