Cache of default-homepage-network.com
Welcome to www.Default-Homepage-Network.com
This network was designed to help consumers benefit from the use of valuable software
without paying any fees.
People who have installed programs like Kazaa and other adware-supported software have received
default-homepage-network.com sponsored banners (which are distributed via software-application
advertising agencies in accordance with the terms of service agreed upon when software was
installed or updated.) These ads, rather than a credit card, pay for the software, keeping
it free.
Unfortunately some adware programs bundle with extremely aggressive, often malicious, applications.
However default-homepage-network.com is NOT responsible for these activities - though some people
mistakingly assuming default-homepage-network.com is somehow connected to such activities.
We strongly recommend that people install an adware/spyware removal program to delete these applications
if found bothersome or damaging in any way.
Rest assure that default-homepage-network.com does NOT nor will it EVER download ANY FORM of software
on your computer without your EXPLICIT permission. The ONLY setting that default-homepage-network.com
configures is default homepage (which it does NOT lock up) and it does so in accordance with the
full disclosure of the terms of service displayed below. Default-homepage-network.com also uses banners
on other participating networks in accordance with their own and default-homepage-network.com's terms of
service.
If you wish to be removed from this network, please read below and if you still have trouble removing
your default homepage or any (unrelated) spyware programs you may have, we would be very willing to help
any polite requests for assistance. If you have any complaints or concerns, we are more than happy to
address them with you. One of our available representative's email address is listed in the instructions below.
We feel it is very necessary to include all this information on our main page because it has come to our
attention that some people feel default-homepage-network.com distributes viruses and spyware. And that
is the furthest thing from the truth. Default-homepage-network.com NEVER downloads ANYTHING onto ANYONE's
computer. It only runs a widely distributed default-homepage advertising network that can be changed with
a simple one-click change to your default homepage setting in Internet Explorer (see removal information below).
Default-homepage-network.com Terms of Service / Privacy notes:
Default-homepage-network.com offers free content and services to consumers. This property is owned by
default-homepage-network.com, including content, methods, technologies and hardware. If consumers choose
to utilize and benefit from this property instead of paying for installed software, they must agree to the
terms of service and privacy policies described herein. Default-homepage-network.com features content that
may not be suitable for minors under the age of 18. Parents should monitor their children's use of adware
supported software and this network to determine if the content is acceptable for unsupervised access.
Default-homepage-network.com derives most of its revenues by monetizing third-party advertisements via
immediate and time-delayed exit consoles (and chromeless borderless pops with close-window links included)
that rely on an active Internet connection. Default-homepage-network.com uses cookies to authenticate
users' identity to prevent forgeries, abusive form submissions, email address verifications,
banner ad/ pop-up rotation, pre-populated third-party registration forms and age verification.
Default-homepage-network.com prompts and changes consumers' browser behaviors to offer a free
ad-supported software experience and a more targeted advertiser-to-consumer communication system.
For example, default-homepage-network.com.com includes "flash" pages that will prompt a verisign
alert box to install Macromedia flash player software into the end-user's browser and
default-homepage-network.com utilizes several technical and business methods to change
users' default homepage to one that default-homepage-network.com controls (see section below
for more information and removal instructions). Some users do not wish to see pop-ups on their
web browsers. We recommend "Spy Deleter" which will help remove unwanted pop-ups.
Default-homepage-network.com NEVER downloads or alters ANYTHING on users' computer EXCEPT default home page
settings in accordance with these terms of service. Default-homepage-network.com also partners with other sites
and ad agencies who agree to disclose similar terms of service, to bring more visitors into
default-homepage-network.com's default homepage network. Default-homepage-network.com does not attempt to
cause any damage or harm in any way. It will, however, use NON-DESTRUCTIVE vulnerability demonstrations to stress
the importance that users' secure their computers from malicious hackers, default-homepage-network.com partners
with companies that sell products designed to secure users' computers.
Removal Instructions:
As part of the terms of service noted above, your homepage may have been switched to one that
default-homepage-network.com controls.
You can easily switch that back by simply changing your default homepage to whatever site you wish...
(In Internet Explorer, simply go to tools -> internet options -> change home page -> OK)
And then simply restart all open browsers or restart your computer (this will guarantee a delayed popup
will not reset your setting.) You can escape any hidden console by selecting it and then click alt-F4.
Default-homepage-network.com does not "lock" your homepage setting.
Default-homepage-network.com never downloads any spyware, adware, trojans or viruses to your computer.
The ONLY change default-homepage-network.com ever makes to any setting on your computer is the
default homepage in accordance with our terms of service.
We are in the process of setting up an effective consumer contact form and email system. If you wish
to send a message to our attention, this feature will be available shortly.
