Informblurb.com is a fraudulent website that displays a fake CAPTCHA verification message - Click "Allow" if you see a robot. In fact, this is a social engineering trick designed to trick users into allowing unwanted push notifications. Initially, push notifications is a legitimate feature supported by many popular browsers to allow various websites, such as news portals, to keep their users updated by sending notifications straight to the desktop. Unfortunately, some dubious domains adopt this feature in order to send unwanted notifications that may lead to a number of dangerous websites. Informblurb.com's notifications have been reported to open web pages that advertise free anti-malware software. Such pages may also display fake system infection warnings, ask users to call scam technical support, or perform other potentially dangerous actions. It is higly-advised against downloading software from websites like this. Use only trusted and official resources for downloading reputable software. Informblurb.com is not the only page of its kind, there are countless other similar domains attempting to promote the same type of scam. If you accidentally subscribed to notifications by Informblurb.com, go ahead and read our guide below to remove them from your system.

Goog.goodsearch.com is a dubious domain promoted by unwanted software known as browser hijackers. Browser hijackers can be installed on users' systems in form of a browser extension, stealth desktop application, or even both and promote unhealthy browser changes. For instance, one of such innovations is usually the addition of suspicious domains like Goog.goodsearch.com that are supposed to act as standalone search engines and process users' search entries/queries. In reality, the majority of such engines are fake and eventually lead to legitimate search portals like Yahoo, Google, Bing, and so forth. Another common symptom of browser hijackers can be a sudden redirection to promoted pages. Resources that get opened unwillingly (i.e. without users' consent) often promote unwanted software, online scams, adult pages, and even malware infections. Furthermore, browser hijackers are sometimes also regarded as "data-stealers". This is because some of them may access sensitive information in browsers (e.g. IP-addresses, geolocations, history, cookies, passwords, usernames, etc.) and collect it for selling or abuse purposes. Thus, if you see Goog.goodsearch.com constantly in your address bar, do not delay to scan your system and clear the browser from assigned changes - all the instructions are in our article below.
