About this infection

Nextlnk12.com redirects are probably caused by adware installed on your system. If you just get one redirect, it’s probably nothing to worry about as you’ve probably just visited a questionable website. However, if you are constantly rerouted to some advertisement, you may want to check your system for adware. It’s a low-level infection that generates a rather big amount of adverts and reroutes in order to make pay-per-click revenue.

Generally, those ads and redirects are more frustrating than dangerous but the occasional one might lead you to a malicious site and that could lead to a malware infection. This is why you should not engage with ads while the infection is still present on your computer. Users usually obtain adware when they install free software and do not pay attention to how they’re doing it. Installing the adware is easy. Having to remove Nextlnk12.com or similar adware may be a bit more difficult.

How did it infect your computer?

Browser hijackers are attached to free software as extra offers that you can deselect. However, most users do not even notice them, and if they don’t, they are permitted to install without explicit permission. Default settings will not show you anything added, so refrain from using them. Instead, choose Advanced or Custom mode. If there is anything added, it will appear there. Make sure that you deselect every single added offer because they are hidden there for a reason. Unless you want to constantly have to delete Nextlnk12.com or similar, always use Advanced.

How does it affect the system?

Besides the redirects, another obvious sign of an infection is a slow computer and browser crashing more often. You might just put this down as just odd computer behavior but if it happened out of a sudden, there is a possibility that some kind of infection is present. So if in addition to that, you are getting redirected, it’s probably adware. The redirects will happen on all popular browsers that you have installed, including Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. They can appear one after the other or there might be a while in between but the reroutes will get on your nerves pretty quickly. You can try closing them but the only way to fully stop them is to uninstall Nextlnk12.com. Whatever ad you are shown, do not press on it as it may not be safe. Adware does not differentiate between safe and malware-ridden sites so you could end up with a malware infection by the end of this. There is no use in keeping it, so remove Nextlnk12.com adware.
