Free Avira DNS Repair Tool for Windows

Download Free Avira DNS Repair Tool - The FBI back in November managed to close down a botnet that was created with the help of a malware called DNSChanger. In operation since 2007 it grew to a size of nearly 4 million infected computer systems of which about 500,000 were located in the United States. The operators manipulated the DNS system of local computer systems to redirect users to other web pages or to replace page elements such as advertisement with their own.

The configured DNS server basically tells the web browser where to look for when a web address such as www.321fulldownload.blogspot.com is entered into the browser’s address bar. If that lookup is manipulated part or all of the page elements of the website can be replaced by the operators of the rogue DNS server.

These DNS servers will however be shut down on March 8th, 2012. Affected users from that day on may not be able to connect to Internet addresses anymore until they replace the DNS server with working ones.

The FBI back then replaced the DNS servers that the cyber criminals used with working servers to avoid interruption of service for users affected by the DNS server change.

Security company Avira, famous for their antivirus solution, has released the Avira DNS Repair-tool.

You can run the portable program on your system to see if your computer’s DNS server has been manipulated by DNSChanger. ( ghacks.net )
