webhostoid.com hijack after installing YTD Video Downloader

Getting redirected to webhostoid.com? You can fix it by using the browser's reset function.

  1. GeniusBox adware installs a proxy server on a system that uses d2e24t2jgcnor2.webhostoid.com; resetting the browser's settings may remove the proxy server setting for the browser, but won't remove the proxy server software from the system. Though your HTTP and HTTPS traffic may no longer be susceptible to eavesdropping when you remove the proxy server setting for browsers, the software will remain and could potentially later reconfigure the system to again route HTTP and HTTPS traffic through itself. I found I could rid a system of the GeniusBox software by removing it by "Uninstall or change a program from the Windows Control Panel.
