This page shows how to remove cld.dizzinessah.com from Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer.
Having troubles with cld.dizzinessah.com showing up in the lower left corner of your web browser? If that is the case, you may have some potentially unwanted program installed on your system. I noticed cld.dizzinessah.com in Mozilla Firefox’s status bar when doing a search at Google, but I guess cld.dizzinessah.com can appear if you are using Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari or Opera too.
Here’s a screenshot of cld.dizzinessah.com when it showed up on my system:
Here are some of the status bar messages you may see in your browser’s status bar:
- Waiting for cld.dizzinessah.com…
- Transferring data from cld.dizzinessah.com…
- Looking up cld.dizzinessah.com…
- Read cld.dizzinessah.com
- Connected to cld.dizzinessah.com…
Does this sound like your computer, you almost certainly have some potentially unwanted program installed on your computer that makes the cld.dizzinessah.com domain appear in your browser. So there’s no idea contacting the owner of the site you were browsing. The cld.dizzinessah.com status bar messages are not coming from them. I’ll do my best to help you remove the cld.dizzinessah.com message in this blog post.
If you have been spending some time on this blog already know this, but if you are new: Recently I dedicated some of my lab machines and deliberately installed some potentially unwanted programs on them. I have been following the behaviour on these machines to see what kinds of advertisements, if any, that are displayed. I’m also looking on other interesting things such as if the potentially unwanted program updates itself automatically, or if it downloads and installs additional software on the systems. I first noticed cld.dizzinessah.com in Mozilla Firefox’s status bar on one of these lab machines.
cld.dizzinessah.com resolves to 37.58.80.221. cld.dizzinessah.com was created on 2015-07-30.
So, how do you remove cld.dizzinessah.com from your browser? On the machine where cld.dizzinessah.com showed up in the status bar I had SalePlus, YouTubeAdBlocke and IStart 5.3.7 installed. I removed them with FreeFixer and that stopped the browser from loading data from cld.dizzinessah.com.
The issue with this type of status bar message is that it can be caused by many variants of potentially unwanted programs. This makes it impossible to say exactly what you need to remove to stop the status bar messages.
Anyway, here’s my suggestion for the cld.dizzinessah.com removal:
- Examine what programs you have installed in the Add/Remove programs dialog in the Windows Control Panel. Do you see something that you don’t remember installing or that was recently installed?
- How about your browser add-ons. Anything in the list that you don’t remember installing?
- If that did not help, I’d recommend a scan with FreeFixer to manually track down the potentially unwanted program. FreeFixer is a freeware tool that I’m working on that scans your computer at lots of locations, such as browser add-ons, processes, Windows services, recently modified files, etc. If you want to get additional details about a file in the scan result, you can click the More Info link for that file and a web page will open up with a VirusTotal report which will be very useful to determine if the file is safe or malware:
