How to Remove Popup Ads Text-Enhance Cookie from Your Computer

Text-Enhance cookie was appeared at your computer because some reasons:
  • You have directly visited text-enhance.com or a website that you have visited uses some of the components (pages, files, images, and so on) of the enhance.com website
  • A software application with Internet-enabled functionality that had previously accessed the enhance.com website was running on your PC (in this case, the text-enhance.com cookie will be saved in Internet Explorer, Mozilla and other browser)


You can detect the presence of the enhance.com cookie in your system using some antimalware application. This way, the detection and removal will be performed automatically. Alternatively, you can choose to perform the following steps, depending on the browser you are using:

Internet Explorer 7 (IE7)
  • From the Tools menu, or the Tools list in the upper right section, select Internet Options
  • Under Browsing History, click Settings
  • Click View Objects or View Files
  • Check if for the enhance.com cookie is present on the list

Internet Explorer 5.x-6.x (IE5-IE6)
  • From the Tools menu, select Options or Internet Options
  • In the General tab, click Settings
  • Select View Files
  • You can identify the enhance.com cookie files by checking the file names beneath the Name or Internet Address column. The files will contain the Cookie: enhance.com element.

Mozilla Firefox (FF)
  • From the Tools menu, select Options
  • In the upper section of the Options window, click Privacy
  • In the Cookies tab, click Show Cookies or remove individual cookies link
  • In the Cookies window, enter enhance.com in the Search field and run a search, or you can scroll down the list to check whether the enhance.com cookie is present there.

And below, you will find instructions on how to block the enhance.com cookie permanently in the different browsers.
To block enhance cookie in Internet Explorer
  • From the Tools menu of Internet Explorer, select Internet Options
  • Select the Privacy tab, and then click Sites. The Per site privacy actions window will be displayed
  • In the Per site privacy actions window, enter enhance.com in the Address of Web site field
  • Click Block

To block enhance cookie in Mozilla Firefox
  • From the Tools menu, select Options
  • In the upper section of the Options window, click Privacy
  • In the Cookies tab, click Exceptions
  • In the new Exceptions - Cookies window, enter text-enhance.com and textsrv.com in the Address of Website field and click Disable
Removing Add-Ons/Extensions
In Google Chrome, click on the wrench at the top right, then select Tools->Extensions and remove something called “Facetheme” or “Better Links” there. The add-on called “Facetheme” was the one on my computer that was directly linked to text-enhance.com. “Better Links” was a similar add-on we found on a different computer, but worked essentially the same as text enhance.
In IE, go into Tools->Manage Add-Ons to remove it there. In Firefox, go into Tools->Add Ons. While you’re in there, remove any unwanted add-ons. There’s a good chance you’ll see some you don’t recognize or want.

Add/Remove Programs
We actually found “Facetheme” in our add/remove programs section of Windows. So, remove it from your computer. The removal process seemed to work this way as well.
