What is Search.mydailyversexp.com?

Search.mydailyversexp.com is a hijacker that is not compatible only with Windows XP. This hijacker can be found on any Windows system with Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox browsers installed. There are several reasons why we identify it as a hijacker, the first of them being that this infection can take over your browsers without permission. Have you found this hijacker installed silently? If you have, there is a huge possibility that other unreliable, malicious infections have corrupted your operating system as well. We advise implementing a legitimate, up-to-date malware scanner to find threats potentially active on your operating system. We would not be surprised if you found adware (advertising-supported software), potentially unwanted programs, and similar unreliable programs installed on your PC along with this hijacker. Keep in mind that even if the software installed along with it looks reliable, it is essential to inspect it. If you discover malware, make sure you get rid of it as soon as you remove Search.mydailyversexp.com.

How does Search.mydailyversexp.com act?

The distribution of this hijacker is quite unpredictable. While some users acquire it when downloading the My Daily Verse XP extension available at mydailyversexp.com, others find it installed illegally. Then there are users who install this search tool by accident. Some users do not read the information regarding the installation of the extension, and they miss the disclaimer about the search provider and homepage modifications. The same problems are faced by users who download software promoted at mymapsxp.com, mycurrentnewsxp.com, and similar websites. All in all, if you were cautious with the software you installed, we are sure that you would minimize the risk of having your browsers infected with Search.mydailyversexp.com or other hijackers. One more thing we want to mention about the extension associated with this hijacker is that it has different names on different browsers. If you use Internet Explorer, you will have to uninstall My Daily Verse XP. Chrome users will face the My Daily Bible Verse XP add-on, and Firefox users will find the extension called “Bible.”

Once installed, Search.mydailyversexp.com takes over the homepage and default search provider. Although this search tool looks quite normal, it cannot be trusted when it comes to web browsing. Instead of showing reliable search results, it redirects via http://extsearch.maxwebsearch.com/ and shows modified Yahoo search results. These search results might include sponsored links, advertisements, which is why trusting them can be extremely dangerous. Have you noticed that the ads shown correspond to your recent browsing history? Well, data-tracking technologies, such as HTTP cookies, might be employed to spy on you and track information that could be used to deliver more “efficient” ads. If you interact with the ads shown, a profit is generated, and that is all that the creator of this hijacker is interested in. Even if you choose to use a different search tool, the cookies might be unleashed to collect information that could be sold to third-party advertisers. Considering how suspicious and unpredictable this program is, interacting with the ads shown by it and trusting the tracking technologies it installs is not our recommendation.
