Destyy.com

This page aims to help you remove Destyy.com. Our removal instructions work for Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer, as well as every version of Windows.

In case all of your browsers have launched the generation of too many ads (pop-ups/ banners) or their typical homepages and search engines have somehow been substituted by some new ones, and in case they have started to redirect you to unfamiliar pages, it is very likely that your PC has caught one particular version of a browser hijacker. It is called Destyy.com, and it may affect all of the most popular browser apps – Chrome/ Explorer/ Opera or Firefox, and the less common ones as well.

What do we mean by classifying a program as a “browser hijacker”?

All of the known browser hijackers are in fact programs that have all the aforementioned traits: every one of them may modify the settings and the appearance of your browser apps. Such consequences might incredibly irritate you – all the ad streams or default homepage/search engine substitutions could also be quite annoying and may take place in case of contamination with a program like Destyy.com. The likely redirection processes perhaps resulting from the infection with Destyy.com could also be very disturbing as the displayed websites could be totally unknown or very suspicious. Furthermore, you might not really approve of the newly-established homepages/ search engines your browsers could start displaying. Generally speaking, though, the manner in which such a browser hijacker may affect your system is harmless as a whole. Still, you may feel awfully irritated at times which makes such programs so unwanted.

Does Destyy.com fall into any malware category?

As a type of a browser hijacker, this product has never resembled any version of malware at all. As an illustration, any standard representative of Ransomware can self-install on your device, and following that, access your data storage spaces and encrypt all the essential files you keep there. Such malicious effects are very unlikely when it comes to the infection caused by any browser hijacker or similar program. 

If Destyy.com is not an actual hazard, how has your system ended up infected?

Why are most hijackers such irritating programs? All the annoying modifications Destyy.com could lead to are indeed legal and can result in no actual harm to you or your PC. Its developers have set all hijackers to merely promote new homepages, search engines, products, services, etc. The mere activity of advertising anything is never malicious, nor has it ever been considered illegal. However, the flow of pop-ups and banners might really be overwhelming you while you are surfing the web. In spite of that, none of that is even close to what we see as real malicious threats. Indeed, the reason why programmers create hijackers is that using them for the promotion of services/ products accumulates large profits for them. After all, all work is paid and all people want to be financially comfortable.

Destyy.com could come from lots of different sources. All torrents or shareware-spreading web pages might have it as a component, and as soon as you load or download anything from there, you may give Destyy.com your indirect permission to get installed on your PC. Also, it might be hiding inside the infamous software bundles. Still, the act of merely downloading any bundle can’t infect your system with an ad-generating piece. Having it installed in an improper way, however, could leave you contaminated.

What does ‘a program bundle’ represent? The proper way to install such a mix:

In general, a bundle is the mix of several free programs (apps/games), assembled and distributed as a package, usually for free. The one and only really sensible way of getting such a bundle installed on your computer (or any separate program from it), is to NEVER ever grant your permission for the whole content of such a bundle to get incorporated into your system. The installation feature providing the great opportunity to opt-in and out of any bundle component and the corresponding unwanted features is the Custom one (also often titled Advanced). Always choose it for the safe completion of any ongoing installation.

We should as well point out the installation choices you can’t afford to make provided that you want to keep your system hijacker and ad-free. Typically, they are marked as ‘Recommended’, ‘Easy’, ‘Typical’ or ‘Default’. Don’t select any of these for the sake of your system’s well-being!
