A browser hijacker named Premiumsearchweb.com belongs to ClientConnect Ltd. Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers are already familiar with this company because it has also developed Go.next-search.net, another infamous browser hijacker. Both of them are likely to be spread using misleading pop-up ads that might be introduced to users by malware.

It is also possible that the hijacker will be included in software bundles available on file-sharing sites. Regardless of the download source, it is most likely that additional software will be bundled along with the hijacker, and you cannot ignore that. Keep reading, and you will learn how to identify and remove existing malware. Most important, you will learn how to delete Premiumsearchweb.com. Read more »

InfoSearchBox.com is nothing more than a browser hijacker that seems to be getting popular in the US. The growth in its popularity is not accidental as it is distributed using highly deceptive methods and you should remove it, provided that it has been set as your web browser’s homepage.

However, if it worked, then your computer’s security could become jeopardized. Read more »

Myallsearch.com is a search engine that belongs to the Conduit family. Although this search tool is not extremely malicious, it might be linked to unreliable and intrusive software, which is why we want to bring your attention to it. Have you installed the search provider as a standalone tool? Though it is possible, it is much more likely that it was bundled with other applications, and this is what worries us. Sure, the search provider could be bundled with harmless and even beneficial programs, but it could also be linked to malware. Was this search tool installed without your notice? Unfortunately, that is possible as well, and you can learn more about that by reading this report. Our main purpose is to show what dangers you might face by trusting the search tool, but we also discuss the removal process. If you cannot wait to remove Myallsearch.com, scroll down to the bottom to find a full guide. Read more »

The MyEmailTab is a Google Chrome extension that promotes a questionable search tool Emailtabsearch.com instead of acting beneficially, i.e. enabling users to access their email accounts within seconds. The extension itself is released quite recently, but it is already rather popular. We know why it is so. Our researchers have managed to find out that this MyEmailTab extension can be downloaded from two different sources officially: 1) its official website lp.myemailtab.com and 2) the Chrome Web Store (chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/music/icnggmipgkebapoemlnmgbiccecglnme?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog). Also, it is also capable of sneaking onto the computer rather secretly. Either way, make sure you do not let the MyEmailTab extension stay on your PC if you do not wish to use Emailtabsearch.com every day. To be honest, it would be a wise decision not to keep it because it is definitely not the most trustworthy search tool. Its removal will not be hard, but we want that you find out why you should remove it from your Google Chrome browser first before we show you how to make it gone forever. Read more »

In Searchwebme.com, we encounter a browser hijacker that affects only one browser. It is an annoying type of software that does not ask you explicitly whether you want it installed or not. You most probably added this search engine to your browser accidentally, when you downloaded some unfamiliar application.

Your computer’s security should be one of your utmost priorities, so to protect your PC and your personal information from malicious exploitations; you should remove Searchwebme.com as soon as possible. Browser hijackers will destroy your system, but they could help other unwanted and dangerous programs enter your PC. And you most certainly do not want that to happen. Read more »

Do not install the MyCouponsTab extension on your computer if you do not want to see another search engine, i.e. Coupontabsearch.com set in the place of your default search engine. Actually, you will see it if you open the New Tab as well because it rewrites the settings of the New Tab page too. As our researchers have noticed, only a small number of users who install the MyCouponsTab extension willingly know that these changes will be applied, so they find it really surprising that this piece of software only sets a new search tool with buttons on its start page leading to websites containing coupons instead of actually finding and displaying “daily deals, local deals, discounts and coupons” within seconds. In other words, the MyCouponsTab extension looks more beneficial than it actually is. If you do not wish to keep a useless piece of software on your PC or simply cannot stand Coupontabsearch.com, you should delete the extension from your Google Chrome (yes, it affects only this browser) right now. Once you have erased this add-on from your browser, you could easily set a more reliable search engine instead of Coupontabsearch.com. Read more »

Search.searchglnn.com may look like an ordinary search engine, but the truth is that it is nothing more than a browser hijacker, a malicious website set to become your browser’s homepage. Removing it is highly recommended because of this fact and because it has been configured to show questionable links in its search results, as well as collect information about you and your browsing preferences and use the collected information to tailor the promoted links. Indeed, this hijacker’s only objective is to generate advertising, and its developers use dishonest methods to trick you into using it. Please continue reading to find out more. Read more »
