• TRADEADEXCHANGE.COM is a typical home page
  hijacker that uses unknown search engine. It can
  override start-up page and new tab on the browser
  affected by adware. If you have Search Hub on the
  computer, it only indicates that potentially
  unwanted program is taking command on your
  browser settings. Search Hub has this goal of
  replacing the default search engine with its own
  due to ads that it will display on the search
  result. 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 Hub as some kind of virus attack.

• Technically, Search Hub 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 Hub 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 Hub also gets
  installed in the background without taking users
  permission.

  set as default start-up page on browser affected

  browser known as extension, add-on, or plug-in.
  In the case of TRADEADEXCHANGE.COM, added code
  may vary. Authors behind this malicious program
  intend to mislead computer users by using
  different titles on their browser plug-in.

  is the abrupt changes on the home page or new tab
  of your browser. If it starts with
  TRADEADEXCHANGE.COM, then, it is clear that you

  that, you may also see relevant browser features
  such as toolbars, drop-down menu, and unwanted
