Where does Hiburim come from?
There is a website called hiburim.com, but it is very unlikely that the application comes from that domain. When it comes to adware applications, users often download them bundled with freeware from third-party file hosting websites. Thus, we assume that Hiburim also travels bundled with freeware, especially as it seems to be closely related to Myconnections browser extension and some other add-ons.
In order to avoid Hiburim installation, you should download programs from official sources only. Also, if you must have a freeware app from a third-party website, you have to read all the installation steps carefully because very often installation wizards inform users about additional applications that are about to be installed on the PC.
What does Hiburim do?
Since the primary function of Hiburim is to collect information and display ads, there is no doubt that it is an adware application. Just like any other adware-related program, Hiburim needs to collect data on your web browsing habits so that it would be able to create a customized string of commercial advertisements. These ads are tailored especially for you, based on your web browsing history, catering to your likes and preferences. This way Hiburim tries to increase the chances of you clicking the ads.
Hiburim and other adware applications are seldom responsible for the third-party content you see on the ads. Hence, if you click an ad, and it redirects you to an unknown and potentially dangerous website, you have no one else, but yourself to blame for it. Naturally, it would not have happened if it were not for Hiburim, but still you are the one who clicked the advertisement.
How to remove Hiburim?
To avoid potential system security issues and even possible malware infection, you have to uninstall Hiburim and other unwanted apps at once. Run a full system scan with SpyHunter free scanner to generate a full list of undesirable programs currently installed on your system. Remove them manually (if possible) and then invest in a licensed antispyware application that would terminate the remaining applications automatically, and at the same time protect you from similar threats in the future.
