Remove Trovigo.com, Trovigo Has Companions!

trovigo-com-virus Global PC Support Center has received a case that trovigo.com appeared together with Start.qone8.com, AVG search and yahoo search on several tabs. None of the build-in browser function would help resolve this problem.

What Is Trovigo.com?

Trovigo.com has been classified as browser hijacker due to the following behaviours:
  1. trovigo.com sticks to be default homepage.
  2. trovigo.com offers search results regardless of users’ preference.
  3. trovigo.com provides more access to commercial sites according to queries than Google does.
However, trovigo.com is not technically a virus. By adopting BHO technique and JS technique rather than replicating itself to attack internal configuration, trovigo.com manages to stay on a machine without being flagged by installed anti-virus program.
