AdGoblin.AdsInContext Adware

Removing AdGoblin.AdsInContext
Categories: Adware,BHO,Hijacker
Adware are programs that facilitate delivery for advertising content
to the user and in some cases gather information from the user's computer.

As this information is entered by the user, it is captured by the BHO (Browser Helper Object) and
sent back to the attacker.
Typically, keyloggers of this type will send the stolen information back to the attacker via email
or HTTP POST, which can appear suspicious.When the default home page is hijacked, the browser opens to the web page set by the hijacker
instead of the user's designated home page. In some cases, the hijacker may block users from
restoring their desired home page.
