PUP.Win32.Chromnius.dg!c
Chromnius is a browser hijacker application that uses a customized version of Google's Chromium-based browser, claiming to enhance online security by blocking pop-ups and tracker cookies. However, it often redirects users to a fake search engine called Chromnius Search, which ultimately relies on legitimate search engines like Yahoo for search results, potentially compromising users' privacy and online experience.
