When a browsing session is interrupted by an unauthorized rerouting to Govome.com, there is no doubt that your PC has been affected by a malicious browser hijacker. The program could reconfigure Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox settings, disturb Internet connection speeds and even expose security backdoors. Even though the search engine does not seem suspicious at first, it is not advisable to use it for personal web searches. If the suspicious application has already corrupted the computer, you should delete Govome.com hijacker without further delay. Manual removal instructions are presented below; however, we firstly recommend discovering how the precarious program works.

If you have been redirected to Govome.com, you should not perform any searches using Web, Images, Videos and News modules. As research shows, using the News section is completely wasteful because none of the keywords match any results. What is more, when you search the web and click on provided results, you are linked to the source through the suspicious click.infospace.com. If that is not dubious enough, the first positions of the search results (taken from Google) are allocated to promotional content which does not have any relation to your queries. For example, if you type in ‘antivirus’, one of the results leads you to an online gaming site.

At the bottom of the Govome.com page you can find links to Terms of Agreement, Privacy Policy or Contact information. It is not recommended emailing bigjourney@outlook.com because this would enable Big Journey and its products to contact you, or maybe even flood with spam. In fact, there is even a possibility that your personal email would be leaked to third party members. Here’s what is disclosed within the Privacy Policy:

We use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit a Big Journey service, and this may include sending one or more cookies or anonymous identifiers to your device. We also use cookies and anonymous identifiers when you interact with services we offer to our partners, such as advertising services or Big Journey features that may appear on other sites.

To remove Govome.com hijacker you should employ legitimate security tools which could delete the threat automatically. This is secure and effective solution, especially if you want to guard your Windows system against future schemers’ attacks. After the removal is complete, use the manual instructions below to delete Govome.com browser modifications.
