Last year, the announced plans to lock down Chrome to prevent installation crapware. Unfortunately scammers have found a way to trick users into installing spyware extensions and . Απλά τα ανέβασαν στο Chrome Web Store. Εκτός από αυτό, υπάρχουν και ιστοσελίδες όπως το Download.com που διανέμει κάποια freeware. Όποιος κάνει το λάθος και κάνει κλικ στο Αποδοχή της εγκατάστασης θα καταλήξει με ένα πολύ αργό υπολογιστή γεμάτο crapware.

As an extra precaution, avoid "free" downloads from Download.com. In general, in each installation you should read carefully what the installer says. Pay attention to what you accept.

How Can You Fill Crapware? If you make the mistake and click Accept Installing Programs from Download.com, a window will appear a little later, which automatically loads the Google Chrome Extension page. The installation will then proceed on its own without selecting it.

To remove these extensions, write the following path in the Chrome Address Box:

Chrome: //

or go to the Tools - extensions main menu. Click the Chrome bin to remove the extension.

But let's also look at the removal tool by Google, for those who want an automatic method.

Google has released ένα νέο εργαλείο που θα σας βοηθήσει να καθαρίζετε εύκολα το πρόγραμμα περιήγησης Chrome. Θα απενεργοποιήσει όλες σας τις επεκτάσεις. Μετά φυσικά θα πρέπει να ενεργοποιήσετε ξανά μόνο τις επεκτάσεις που θέλετε.

You can download it Software removal tool (it's still beta) from here.
