Plug-ins!!Take care!!

Posted August 4th, 2008 by jerry

It is a common case for most PC owners. We are browsing a website when there pops up a window requiring installation of some plug-ins to watch online videos or browse some websites. If we want to get to this information, we will have to install this plug-ins. The problem is that some plug-ins are illegal and would cause damage to our computers. Some illegal plug-ins even tend to make changes to your registry and become more difficult to remove or uninstalled. If you go on the internet, these plug-ins will pop up some windows or try to download a lot of files from the Internet. Next time, when you see this program with hundreds of files on your computer, you can’t even make sure whether it’s a program you have downloaded yourself.

As a result, it is important for us to distinguish and remove the illegal plug-ins. But, how do we distinguish them from those useful plug-ins? Usually, the plug-ins we meet on Internet are separated into several categories like chatting plug-in、video/ audio plug-in、games plug-in and other daily plug-ins. When removing them manually, you have to view its specific information and remove them one by one. Some plug-ins will not be uninstalled unless you go under safe mode and remove those related files one by one. Thus, it always drives people mad to finish this job. Finally, some people decided to remove all the plug-ins.

Since we can’t afford the time to remove these “bad” plug-ins manually without ruining the useful plug-ins, I think it time to turn to some software. Some software provides protection for computers to block plug-ins. The problem is that you have to choose the right software. Because some software will block all the plug-ins and would not allow you to install any even you want to use them. I sincerely recommend the following:
