Navright virus
Navright virus is a malicious program that automatically installs alongside malware and other potentially unwanted programs without user consent. The Navright program is usually introduced by software blunderers that utilize deceptive methods to trick users into installing malicious software without their knowledge. Malicious files may use fake Windows alert messages in order to persuade users to install programs they do not need.
Once Navright is installed it will display pop-up and in-text advertisements on the webpages you visit in your browser. Navright ads can usually be identified by text on them that say “Ads By Navright” on the bottom corner. The program may also be responsible for changing your current browser settings and causing browser redirects to commercial websites.
