We can protect Google Chrome or any other browser from malwares or ads by simply adding an addblocker and avoiding websites that have lot of pop ups. Other way is to keep the browser as well as the operating system up to date and optimize it regularly by removing unwanted extensions or toolbars. A lot depends on the browsing habits as well. So in multiple ways we can protect any web browser from any kind of attacks.
If you’re seeing some of these problems with Chrome, you might have unwanted software or malware installed on your computer:
Pop-up ads and new tabs that won’t go away
Your Chrome homepage or search engine keeps changing without your permission
Unwanted Chrome extensions or toolbars keep coming back
Your browsing is hijacked, and redirects to unfamiliar pages or ads
Alerts about a virus or an infected device
In the future, avoid unwanted software by only downloading files or visiting sites that you know are secure.
Reset your browser settings
On your computer, open Chrome.
At the top right, click More More and then Settings.
At the bottom, click Advanced.
Windows: Under “Reset and cleanup,” click Reset Settings and then Reset Settings.
Mac or Chromebook: Under “Reset Settings,” click Reset Settings and then Reset.
Linux: Under “Reset Settings,” click Restore settings to their original defaults and then Reset Settings.
If you removed unwanted programs or reset your browser settings, you might need to turn some extensions back on. To turn extensions on, at the top right, click More More and then More Tools and then Extensions. Only turn on extensions you trust.
