Additionalsearch.co.uk is a site that has an interface of a search engine. The search box in the middle indicates that search results can be produced. Also, the site provides a number of links that all represent different bbc.co.uk articles. Additionally, links to the bbc.com/weather weather forecast are included as well. At first sight, this search engine looks completely normal. It is when you take a better look that you realize something is not right. For one, we do not have access to the Privacy Policy or any other legal document that would reveal important information about the hijacker, and that cannot be ignored. If this information is not provided – and we do not have an official download site to fall back onto either – there is a possibility that the creator of the search tool is trying to hide something. If that were the case, your virtual security could be at risk just by using this seemingly reliable search tool, and this is why we discuss its removal. We can show you how to delete Additionalsearch.co.uk from your browsers. Read more »

Dnav.com looks like a search engine, and it provides search results; however, it does that by redirecting you to Bing.com search engine, and that is quite strange. Did you know that you would be redirected to Bing when using this search tool? The information representing this search tool informs that it uses Google, Yahoo, and Bing services to provide users with search results. On top of that, the interface includes a tag that says “Results by Bing,” which, of course, should make it clear that this suspicious search provider does not produce its own results. Here is a question for you: Why do you need a search tool like that? Would it not be more convenient just to employ Bing as your default search provider or to open on startup? The reality is that the search results shown to you are meant to distract you from something else, and that is what we discuss in this report. We also discuss the best way to delete Dnav.com from your web browsers. Read more »

Led-search2016.com could be the next questionable search engine that could appear in your most popular browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer.

In fact, it may already cause system security-related problems for you as it can come on board with a company of malware infections. It is quite likely that your system is already under attack on several fronts.
