Azurewebsites net

Microsoft Azure Web Sites is a reputable cloud computing platform created by Microsoft, designed to support various programming languages. However, this legitimate service has become a target for cybercriminals who exploit it to host suspicious websites, such as the notorious Azurewebsites.net, alongside other phishing sites posing as authentic Azure Web Sites services. Azurewebsites.net, in particular, stands out as a browser hijacker, an undesirable software that invades a computer, attaches itself to the primary web browser and redirects users to specific websites. To protect your computer from this deceptive website and similar threats, stay on this page and read the detailed removal guide below.

Azurewebsites

Azurewebsites is a piece of software primarily focused on generating revenue through advertising. The more visits the sites associated with it receive, the higher the income for the developers. Unfortunately, browser hijackers like Azurewebsites offer little to no value to the users and can be irritating and potentially unsafe with their ads and redirects. Therefore, the general recommendation is to remove this software promptly. However, hijackers are often designed to be difficult to uninstall, going as far as making changes in the computer’s Registry to ensure their persistence. For this reason, users need to locate and remove all data and settings changes made by the hijacker. A comprehensive removal guide is available at the bottom of this page to assist in eliminating this unwanted app from the systems.

Azurewebsites virus

Azurewebsites, or “the Azurewebsites virus” (like many users commonly refer to it) poses a security risk mainly due to the excessive ads and redirects it generates. While the ads themselves might not directly harm the computer, the websites this browser hijacker promote may be potentially dangerous. Some of these sites might serve as distribution centers for harmful threats like Ransomware, Trojans, and Spyware. Therefore, to protect your computer from encountering such threats, it’s essential to follow the removal guide provided below. In this way, you can successfully eliminate the Azurewebsites virus and regain control over your browser, ensuring a safer and more secure online experience.

Uninstall the Azurewebsites app and kill its processes

The first thing you must try to do is look for any sketchy installs on your computer and uninstall anything you think may come from Azurewebsites. After that, you’ll also need to get rid of any processes that may be related to the unwanted app by searching for them in the Task Manager.

Note that sometimes an app, especially a rogue one, may ask you to install something else or keep some of its data (such as settings files) on your PC – never agree to that when trying to delete a potentially rogue software. You need to make sure that everything is removed from your PC to get rid of the malware. Also, if you aren’t allowed to go through with the uninstallation, proceed with the guide, and try again after you’ve completed everything else.

• Uninstalling the rogue app
• Killing any rogue processes

Type Apps & Features in the Start Menu, open the first result, sort the list of apps by date, and look for suspicious recently installed entries.

Click on anything you think could be linked to Azurewebsites, then select uninstall, and follow the prompts to delete the app.

Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc, click More Details (if it’s not already clicked), and look for suspicious entries that may be linked to Azurewebsites.

If you come across a questionable process, right-click it, click Open File Location, scan the files with the free online malware scanner shown below, and then delete anything that gets flagged as a threat.
