can webroot remove the istart123.com virus that has infected chrome?

 

everytime I startup chrome i get that instead of my normal startup page.  i'm not sure if it does damage or if it is more of an incovenience but I would have thought that webroot would have caught it.

 

thanks,

 

Mike
Hello@mwhittington

 

Welcome to the Webroot Community,

 

Istart123.com is a browser hijacker that is bundled with other free software that you download off of the Internet. When installed this browser hijacker it will set the homepage and search engine for your web browser to istart123.com

iStart123.com homepage got on your computer after you have installed a freeware software that had bundled into their installation this browser hijacker. Unfortunately, some free downloads do not adequately disclose that other software will also be installed and you may find that you have installed this malicious program without your knowledge.
