Globososo Search

What is Globososo Search?

Globososo is a browser hijacker that obviously comes from the same batch as Qvo6 Virus and PortaldoSites.com Search malware. It forcefully changes your home page to globososo.com and your default search engine is modified for search.globososo.com. In general, Globososo does not look like a computer infection at all. It comes across as a genuine search engine with Web, Images, Videos and News search functions. Qvo6 Virus and PortaldoSites.com Search would display customized Yahoo! search results whenever you tried searching for something on these sites, but when Globososo displays search results on search.globososo.com, it looks like a legitimate search engine that does not rely on any other domain.

What does Globososo hijacker do?

However, despite the fact that Globososo looks legal and what not, it still is a browser hijacker, because it enters your system without your consent, modifying your default browser settings.
