What is Searchdwebs?

Searchdwebs is a potentially unwanted program which may also be recognized as a browser hijacker. The application may come bundled with free browser plugins, and once activated it may change the home page of existing browsers to websearch.searchdwebs.info. Even though this search engine is not considered malicious, you definitely need to act cautious if you choose to use it for web surfing. As Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers have discovered, all searches performed through this particular search engine are provided by yet another engine – search.whitesmoke.com. Therefore, even though this search tool may seem useful and reliable at first, you are bound to suspect something stranger sooner or later. Do you want to remove Searchdwebs from your web browsers? Then continue reading to learn all you need to know.

Why should you delete Searchdwebs?

In many cases Windows users install freeware without paying enough attention to the installation process. It is absolutely important that you always stay focused because third party programs could be set for an automatic installation, which means that you may find your browsers modified seemingly without your consent. Regardless, if you do not read the Privacy Policy or research the offered programs and then click the Agree button to initiate the installation of a desirable program – you are the only one culpable for the unwanted changes and browser modifications. And why should you focus on the privacy policies? Here is an excerpt which you may find shocking:

We may collect certain information about your web usage and websites you have visited, which may be shared with third parties and used for advertising. […] In some cases, information collected by the plugin and other services may be personally identifiable, and in some cases information (including information from or about pages of social media websites you visit) may be used or shared with third parties for purposes of displaying targeted advertisements

Do you want to have your online activity recorded by Searchdwebs developers? Do you want this data to be shared with third parties who could then flood you with various advertisements? If you do not, you certainly need to remove the potentially unwanted program from the operating Windows system. If you are determined to continue using the search engine, our researchers warn that it could be dangerous to click on the provided home page advertisements, as well as the ads which dominate the search results. Please apply the same rules when dealing with websearch.searchrocket.info and websearch.pu-result.info.
