What is Omiga Plus?

Omiga Plus is a browser hijacker which can set isearch.omiga-plus.com as a new home page of the installed web browsers. The infection can affect Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers without any warning, which is why the search provider is considered to be unreliable and intrusive.

How does Omiga Plus work?

The installation of Omiga Plus is more complicated and multi-layered than you think. Once installed it activates the Windows Protect Manager which could aggravate the removal of the browser hijacker. What is more, the infection modifies the browser shortcut files setting isearch.omiga-plus.com as the default search tool. If you do not reset the settings of the browser shortcuts, you will not be able to delete Omiga Plus manually. Regarding this disturbing feature, the infection works similarly to Qvo6, Qone8, Aartemis, and other infamous browser hijackers. Another thing that these threats have in common is the distribution. According to malware researchers here at Anti-Spyware-101.com, you may need to worry about the removal of browser hijackers if you accidentally download bundled software.

Omiga Plus travels bundled with Desk 365, SoftStud, Fast Start, and other questionable applications which we recommend having deleted as well. Unfortunately, the real threat hides behind the hijacker itself. The banner advertisements, pop-up ads and sponsored search results displayed by the infection all represent the links to third party sites. Whether you discover advertisements served by fra1.ib.adnx.com or any other server, you should not click on them because one click could be enough to unleash malware installers.

How to remove Omiga Plus?

Omiga Plus removal should be your priority if you have discovered the malicious infection on your PC. Unfortunately, many computer users postpone the operation, especially if they have already attempted the manual removal because the infection can regenerate. If you want to delete all existing PUPs, adware and other infections simultaneously we suggest the installation of automatic malware detection and removal software. Ultimately, it does not matter how you choose to delete the infection, as it is most important that you do delete it. Of course, virtual security researchers choose automatic malware removers because they can guarantee further virtual protection as well.
