Also, this hijacker comes with a browser extension that will also be installed on Chrome and Firefox, but not on Internet Explorer. So you will have to delete it as well.

How does Search.youremailcenter.com work?

A a search engine, Search.youremailcenter.com seems to work rather well, although this can be debated. The bottom line is that it can perform searches and find the information you are after. Nevertheless, it is bound to include potentially dangerous promotional links inside its search results. For example, it might promote malicious software downloads or scam websites, such as fake online retail websites. The risk of entering such websites is rather low, yet cannot be ruled out.

Furthermore, Search.youremailcenter.com is set to collect certain information about you. This information includes but is not limited to browser type, operating system type, Internet Protocol address, geographical location, Internet Service Provider, browsing history, and so on. The collected information is set back to the server where it is processed and more relevant advertisements are assigned to a unique user in an effort to make more money. And, money is the main motivation behind hijacking your browser’s homepage, and we think that this is unacceptable.

How to remove Search.youremailcenter.com

Entering a new homepage address via you browser’s options should be sufficient. However, you must not forget to remove its accompanying browser extension as it can override the changes you make to the homepage address. Therefore, we recommend resetting your browser’s settings to default. However, in some cases this might not work, since most browser hijackers can modify your browser’s files and modify certain registry values. If that is the case, then try using an antimalware program.
