Remove Rou.resyncload.net pop-up virus (Removal Guide)

If you are seeing pop-ups from rou.resyncload.net whenever you are opening a new tab within Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome, then your computer is infected with an adware or potentially unwated program.

This infection is distributed through several means. Malicious websites, or legitimate websites that have been compromised, may drop this Trojan onto a compromised computer. This drive-by-download often happens surreptitiously. Another method used to propagate this type of malware is spam email containing infected attachments or links to malicious websites. The threat may also be downloaded manually by tricking the user into thinking they are installing a useful piece of software.
This virus is also prevalent on peer-to-peer file sharing websites and is often packaged with pirated or illegally acquired software.

The rou.resyncload.net pop-up happens regardless of the web browser or search engine, and if you are seeing ads from rou.resyncload.net whenever you are doing a Google search or visiting a website, then your computer may be infected with adware or a potentially unwanted program.
This infection is designed specifically to make money. It generates web traffic, collects sales leads for other dubious sites, and will display advertisements and sponsored links within your web browser.
rou.resyncload.net is not a malicious domain itself, however cyber criminals are using malicious products to display ads from this domain, and thus getting pay-per-click revenue.

You should always pay attention when installing software because often, a software installer includes optional installs, such as this rou.resyncload.net adware. Be very careful what you agree to install.
Always opt for the custom installation and deselect anything that is not familiar, especially optional software that you never wanted to download and install in the first place. It goes without saying that you should not install software that you don’t trust.
