What is BabMaint.exe? Should I remove it?

BabMaint.exe (can also be called asbabmaint.x or redirect.js) is a widely known malicious executable, which is related to suspicious browser add-ons that are capable of hijacking Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and other web browsers. The most dangerous program, which is related to this file, is delta-homes.com. You should definitely avoid it and remove it from your computer as soon as it starts interrupting you with its redirects to unknown websites and commercial pop-up ads that are filled with various links. These activities may start interrupting you when you are on your Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and other web browsers.

Unfortunately, but delta-homes.com redirects is not the most dangerous thing. The most dangerous thing about this hijacker is that it is capable of tracking PC users and collecting their search terms, mostly visited websites, data that they enter when visiting their favorite sites, etc. Besides, it can also collect information about victim's email address, PC's IP address, its location, etc. If you don't want to reveal such information for unknown third parties, you have to remove delta-homes virus and BabMaint.exe from your computer.

Besides, it seems that this file can be used by other browser hijackers, like Babylon toolbar, 22find virus and mixidj.delta-search.com. These programs can also be used for browser hijacking and similar unwanted activities, so you should also try to get rid of them ASAP. Otherwise, you may end up on questionable sites that are filled with doubtful content.

Unfortunately, but this behavior is still considered as legitimate. The only thing that sounds promising is that there are more and more security researchers who are including this file to the database of their anti-spywares. If you want to make sure that your computer is free of BabMaint.exe, you should scan it with FortectIntego.
