Websearch.search-guide.info is not the search engine you should trust. If you type in any keywords into the presented search box you will be routed straight to search.whitesmoke.com. Even though this search engine is not highly corrupt and it may provide you with authentic search results, you need to be extra cautious. If you are not careful enough you could click on advertisement-supported search results and this is never a good idea. If these were supported by unreliable third parties it is most likely that the links would be used to route you to sites which cannot be trusted. In many cases the presented information could even be used to fool you into downloading bundled software which may hide malware, or even exposing your personal information. Therefore Websearch.search-guide.info removal is highly advised. Read more »
