There are some fantastic and super-duper cool ads, but there is also tons of garbage ads out there. The ads we want are the REAL ONES. The ads that look too good to be true and are beautified with exotic pictures and audio are usually the ones you don’t want to have on your screen because they carry Feed Sonic Search. They are TRULY only made to steel your personal information like passwords to e-mail accounts and/or social media channels, credit card information, addresses, files and documents.

Feed Sonic Search is actually not thought of as a dangerous virus, but it is a type of malware that basically installs itself. “How is this possible?” — another common question. Well, think of this for a moment: if a program, or a file, installs itself and you have no clue about it, do you think that it’s a good thing? Do you think that it will be a program that you need — one that will be so useful to you and at the same time valuable, but free of charge? How suspicious!!! It have gotten on your PC through either the opening of spam e-mails, downloading attached file someone has sent you, or via e-mail from one of your friends and/or acquaintances in your address book.

How was Feed.Sonic-Search.com installed on your computer?
Software bundling is a frequent way for the virus to station itself on your PC. It happens when you are trying to download one program, but actually there are additional files that are camouflaged into that one program. This happens when you use the default build-in settings on your PC. You can change them by re-working the options for downloading and set them in a way that you will allow you to have more control of what is being loaded on your PC.
The way the malware works is that it is also capable of generating earnings from pay-per-click or pre-click. Why? Because this will ease hackers in obtaining your bank account(s) information and it would be used for larger criminal purposes. The more you continue clicking at these ads, the more of them you will constantly and continuously receive. Some of them are quite terrible and you will see that Feed Sonic Search is there because it will cause extreme problems with the performance of your computer; this includes: glitches, misplaced files, deleting of random files that you actually need or it will ask you for urgent updates on your computer that you will have to pay for. BE ALERT AND REMEMBER THAT SUCH NOTICES AND/OR REQUESTS ARE SCAMS!!!
Chrome is the most used browser and its settings are set in a way that allow it to happen. Mozilla Firefox have taken the Flash away in order to protect its users, but then you need to be careful when you are downloading the flash through a third-party–who sits on the other side and who is taking your money? IE is ‘aged’ and not very well maintained, so hackers use this weakness to get to you. Keep the removal guide at your side always and follow its instructions!
