ANYFlix is a adware program from the Adware.CloudGuard family that injects unwanted advertisements on web sites that you visit and in search result pages. ANYFlix claims that it will "Unlock blocked websites and digital media for Free! Our DNS service is faster than VPN, simpler to setup…" Whether this is true or not is unknown, but what is known is that this program will cause web sites you visit will be bombarded unwanted advertisements that make it difficult to read the content on the site.
When ANYFlix displays advertisements they will be labeled ANYFlix Ads, Ads by ANYFlix, or Ad by ANYFlix and will be shown on any web site you visit, regardless of whether that site normally displays ads. ANYFlix will also display advertisements in search engine result pages that will be labeled RocketTab powered by ANYFlix. This adware program will also change your computer's assigned DNS servers to ones under it's control in order to supposedly allow you to bypass blocked websites. This also enables ANYFlix to track all Internet connections that you make and keep track of what web sites you are visiting.
ANYFlix starts automatically on your computer through the use of a scheduled task called DNSINWOOD. This task will start ANYFlix when your computer boots up, when you login, at certain times during the day, and when your computer becomes idle. Therefore even if you exit out of ANYFlix, the scheduled task will turn it back on at another time without your permission. Furthermore, ANYFlix changes your computer's DNS servers to ones under their own control. This allows them to not only monitor what sites you are visiting, but to also replace requests from legitimate ad servers with their own ad servers. The DNS servers that ANYFlix uses are 82.163.143.189 and 82.163.142.189. These DNS servers are one of the main reasons that people find it difficult to disable ANYFlix ads from displaying on their browser. This is because if you uninstall the ANYFlix program, but do not disable their DNS servers, they will continue to hijack ads and display ones of their own choosing.
As you can see, ANYFlix was created to display advertisements on web sites that you visit without providing any extra benefit to the user. In addition, by changing your DNS servers from their legitimate settings to ones under ANYFlix's control, it makes it difficult for regular computer users to uninstall this software. To remove this adware and any related software for free, please use the removal guide below.
