If you see allinchrome.com set up as your homepage without your consent, you should be aware that a browser hijacker has affected your system. Allinchrome.com is developed by Navigation Network Co., Limited. What browser hijackers such as this one do is alter the browser’s default settings so that the homepage, search page, new tab page and sometimes error page are changed to their preferences. Such potentially unwanted and hazardous programs may have entered the system in packaged installers. Continue reading to learn more about browser hijackers and how to deal with them.

Allinchrome.com General Description

The layout of the page provides several sections with hotlinks to various legitimate websites such as Twitter, Facebook, Yahoo, MSN, etc. However, relevant ads according to the user’s language settings and location may also be displayed. The page may also advertise third-party software.

The page itself may not be considered unsafe to use. However, the method it applied to get to your browser may indicate a bundled download of potentially unwanted software.

How does Bundling work?

Bundling of software is used to cover financial losses and generate revenue. It can be implemented in cases when software developers have suffered financial losses or just want to monetize their platforms. Bundling can be avoided by selecting the Advanced/ Custom installer option.

However, opting for the custom installer may not work in cases of silent or unattended downloads. Silent installations will happen without the user being notified of it. In other words, once the primary software is downloaded to the system, an additional one is also installed, only silently. Unattended downloads, on the other hand, don’t acquire user interaction at all.
