Prolivation.com Homepage Hijacker Removal Instructions and Help


What is Prolivation.com?
Prolivation.com takes over your ability to view webpages by attaching the URL

prolivation.com/cgi-bin/r.cgi?

in front of any web page you try to visit. In essence, this destroys the ability to view web pages since currently the domain prolivation.com is actively registered but dormant. The script itself allows the site to monitor visited URLs and/or redirect the requests, add popups, etc. Adult sites may be substituted for the requested site.

The hijacker edits the registry as well as editing the file to reset the home and search pages for Internet Explorer. Because of these changes to your system the hijacker program is difficult to remove.
