Hello hello. Found another startpage modifier<\/strong> named Vosteran<\/strong> right now. If you got Vosteran on your computer, you will see start pages in Chrome<\/strong>, Firefox<\/strong> and Internet Explorer<\/strong> changed to Vosteran.com<\/strong>, lots of Vosteran.exe<\/strong> processes running in the Windows Task Manager which appears to be a custom build of the Chrome browser! You’ll also see add-ons and new search providers installed in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. I’ll show how to remove Vosteran<\/strong> in this blog post with the FreeFixer removal tool.<\/p>\n

Here’s the vosteran.com<\/strong> start page in Firefox:<\/p>\n

\"vosteran.com<\/a><\/p>\n

and the new add-ons called Vosteran 2.3.0<\/strong> and Vosteran Search 1.0.2<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\"Vosteran<\/a><\/p>\n

If you check the Task Manager, you’ll see a bunch of vosteran.exe processes running:<\/p>\n

\"vosteran.exe<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When I uploaded\u00a0vosteran.exe<\/a> to VirusTotal<\/a>\u00a0none of the anti-virus programs there detected the file.<\/p>\n

Vosteran is bundled<\/strong> with other software. Bundled means that it is included in another software’s installer. When I first found Vosteran, it was bundled with a piece of software named unofficial Skype download<\/strong>\u00a0which was digitally signed by Astro Delivery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Generally, you can avoid bundled software such as Vosteran by being careful when installing software and declining the bundled offers in the installer.<\/p>\n

Since you probably want to remove Vosteran<\/strong>, these are the files you should check for removal if you want to remove it with FreeFixer<\/a>. You may have to restart your system to complete the removal.<\/p>\n

\"vosteran.exe<\/a> \"vosteran.com<\/a> \"vosteran.com<\/a> \"vosteran<\/a><\/p>\n

Hope this helped you remove the Vosteran start page modifier and vosteran.exe. If some of the Vosteran.com stuff remains in you browser, you can try the reset feature<\/strong> in your browsers to reset your browser to state that is almost the same as when you installed it for the first time.<\/p>\n

Any idea how you got Vosteran on your system? Please share by posting a comment. Thank you very much!<\/p>\n

Hope you found this useful and thanks you for reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
