Help! Jzip Hijacked My Browser by Nobody: 8:37pm On Oct 10, 2011
Was coerced into downloading and installing jzip to help me install an app from a .zip folder, wasn't satisfied so I kept on googlin'.
suprise, my browser loaded search.jzip.com on launch, tried to open another tab still search.jzip.com took over, I clicked on google still search.jzip.com loaded.
I quit browsing, uninstalled jzip and all its add-ons to my browser still: search.jzip.com took over. In fact I was able (or lucky) to load this forum after persistently trying, any Idea on removing this malware
pls help cry

Hmmmm, darn freewares!!!

What browser are you using? I assume its Firefox? If yes, then the following reference that should help you get rid of it:
1. How To Remove Jzip Plugin
2. Jzip Removal tips

If you need a free and trusted compression utility, I'd recommend 7zip

All the best ridding your system of the ware!
