It is all the same what kind of browser extension you want to install, it can be the weak point for the browser. Playback is not an exclusion. All browser vendors release security updates and care about the security of their users. But if you activate any browser add-on, then software companies are not able to be sure that your PC will not be infected. Online scammers can open the browser extension like a door to the PC. Surely there is a good solution for this problem: use add-ons from well-known and dependable vendors only. But is not 100% protection from online delinquents and software infections. I advise not to download browser extensions at all.

But if you still want to install one or another browser extension then you should be prepared that this add-on will receive permission to record your sensitive data that you enter on diverse social networks and can pass it to the third parties. You should realize that to install a browser add-on is the same situation that todownload an utility. Will you install software if you did not hear about its producer? I think, no. So, you also should be careful downloading the browser add-on that you are going to install.

Playback, as an advertising add-on, is more perilous, because you cannot be certain that the promotional message is true and that the website that states in the advertisement is secure. If you want to use Playback or any other add-on that displays you special deals then you should be ready that it can swindle you.

Playback like all other adware programs has some common symptoms that will help you to detect if your computer is infected with it or not. Here is the list of them:

• Many block of ads shown by Playback
• Very slow performance
• Antivirus software detects some computer infections
• Some changes in the browser (toolbars, homepage, search engine)
• Search results are hijacked
• Playback creates its files, DIRS and registry keys

Manual and Automatic Removal Methods?

Manual removal method that you can perform to remove Playback from browsers are secure and not so hard as you might think. Perhaps, only automatic instructions are easier. This method is very powerful as the browser creators bother about your right to install or uninstall any extensions. The method will let you to remove all the unwanted browser extensions and ads will not irritate you any more. But occasionally, using this way of removal users notice that the adware returns to the browser and they need to fulfill any other techniques to remove it.

Nevertheless manual technique that tells you to remove some folders and registry keys and values is the most destructive one. If you venture to use this removal technique, then you should bear in mind just one common principle: do not forget to do the backup of the registry. Also this removal should be carried out just by the user that knows what and why he has to eliminate.In case you will delete some folders or registry keys that do not belong to Playback, then the PC will not load next time. Experts will not step off and can enjoy the force of this manual way of removal.

However the most effective and the most secure method is automatic. Downloading any antivirus program that has Playback in its signatures, you will remove the unwanted browser extension promptly and the add-on will not bother you any more since the antivirus software will protect your system in future.

Concerning the money that users may pay for the virus removal I should say that some methods are 100% free of charge, for example manual removal from browsers, manual professional removal (in the case if you will do it by yourselves), free antivirus software and the removal from Control Panel. But not all of them are effective. The information about the effectiveness of these removal ways I illustrate in the table that is called ‘Removal methods statistics’, you can see it below. Speaking about the paid ways of virus removal, I should list the Computer Repair Shop Service and paid Antivirus program.

These methods are the most effective. In spite of the great inequality in the price (Repair Shop service depends on the complication of the issue and may cost up to $300, but paid antivirus costs up to $60) these removal ways are almost equal in the effectiveness and in the results. I should also notice that paid antiviruses always has support service (sometimes free) that will solve your problem like in an expensive computer repair shop.
