(Google iLivid!) I'd be livid too!
"The iLivid Virus hijacks your Internet web browser and redirects your Internet searches to ilivid.com. Similar to the Firefox Redirect Virus, the malware alters your Domain Name System (DNS). However, unlike the Firefox Redirect Virus, iLivid will attempt to infect all of the Internet browsers that are installed on your PC.
The iLivid Virus adds several components to your Internet browser, such as a search toolbar. These components are added without your knowledge and consent. Other symptoms include slowness with your Internet browser, search engine searches provide unwanted results, and typing a legit URL on your browser will redirect you to a page full of advertisements or to the iLivd.com website.
The creators of the iLivid Virus benefit from your clicks. For example, when you are redirected to iLivid.com website and if you click on the advertisements displayed on the site, the creators will receive advertisement fees from your clicks. However there’s a greater malicious intent than to gain profits from your clicks. The iLivid Virus is capable of stealing your personal information by recording your keystrokes and capturing your username and passwords to your email, credit cards, and banking information.
Infected by drive-by download
You may become infected with the iLivid Virus when attempting to download movies, music, or pirated software. The malware presents itself as a legit product called 'iLivid Free Download Manager," which attempts to trick you into believing that the tool is used for assisting with your media downloads.
iLivid Virus can also infect your PC by drive-by downloads. A drive-by download is a malicious program that is installed on your computer while visiting an infected website or viewing an HTML email message. Drive-by download programs are installed without your consent, and you don’t even have to click on a link on the web page or email to get infected. Drive-by downloads are considered to be client-side attacks. Client-side attacks target vulnerabilities that exist in your computer system which interact with a compromised server. Consequently, drive-by downloads can identify and exploit vulnerabilities that may exist in your browser as well as attack your PC due to low security settings. "
Thank your lucky stars it doesn't! From
