There&#8217;s no use contacting the owners of the web site you were browsing. The charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com status bar messages are not coming from them. I&#8217;ll try help you to <strong>remove the charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com<\/strong> status bar messages in this blog post.<\/p>\n<p>If you have been reading this blog already know this, but if you are new: A little while back I dedicated some of my lab computers and knowingly installed some potentially unwanted programs on them. Since then I have been tracking the behaviour on these computers to see what kinds of adverts, if any, that are displayed. I&#8217;m also looking on other interesting things such as if the potentially unwanted program updates itself, or if it installs additional software on the machines. I first observed charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com in Mozilla Firefox&#8217;s status bar on one of these lab machines.<\/p>\n<p>charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com resolves to 54.231.14.49.<\/p>\n<p>So, how do you <strong>remove charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com<\/strong> from your web browser? On the machine where charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com showed up in the status bar I had <a title=\"Remove PlainSavings Ads\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/library\/file\/PlainSavingsbho.dll-199447\/\">PlainSavings<\/a>, <a title=\"Remove WNet.exe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/library\/file\/WNet.exe-199449\/\">WNet<\/a>, <a title=\"How To Remove ActSys.exe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/library\/file\/ActSys.exe-201750\/\">ActSys<\/a> and <a title=\"How To Remove CashReminder.exe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/library\/file\/CashReminder.exe-199448\/\">CashReminder<\/a> installed. I removed them with <a title=\"More info on FreeFixer and download link here\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/b\/about-freefixer\/\">FreeFixer<\/a> and that stopped the browser from loading data from charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com.<\/p>\n<p>The issue with this type of status bar message is that it can be caused by many variants of potentially unwanted programs. This makes it impossible to say exactly what you need to remove to stop the status bar messages.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, here&#8217;s my suggestion for the charmsavings-production.s3.amazonaws.com removal:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Review what programs you have installed in the Add\/Remove programs dialog in the Windows Control Panel. Do you see something that you don&#8217;t remember installing or that was recently installed?<\/li>\n<li>You can also review the browser add-ons. Same thing here, do you see something that you don&#8217;t remember installing?<\/li>\n<li>If that didn&#8217;t help, you can give <a title=\"About FreeFixer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freefixer.com\/b\/about-freefixer\/\">FreeFixer<\/a> a try. FreeFixer is built to assist users when manually tracking down potentially unwanted programs. It is a freeware utility that I&#8217;ve been working since 2006 and it scans your machine at lots of locations where unwanted software is known to hook into your machine.
