The suspicious browser hijacker websearch.allsearches.info can take over the home page and even the default search provider tools active on the popular web browsers. If you have accepted the installation of the search engine yourself, it must have been introduced to you, and due to this it may be unfair to call it a browser hijacker. Read more »

If you download and install CheckMeUp on your computer, it just simply means that you will start seeing commercial advertisements. They will appear on your Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox browsers and it is very likely that they will not allow you to browse the web, search for the information, and do other activities on the internet freely because ads that CheckMeUp generates are very intrusive. Unfortunately, they will not stop appearing on your screen if you do not take some measures. Therefore, you should remove CheckMeUp from the system as quickly as possible. If you need more reasons to do that, you should know that ads generated by this program might even expose you to potential threats. Read more »

ShieldPlus looks like a very useful application because it promises to protect the settings of your browsers and do not let other suspicious programs change them. “Enjoy your browsing experience the way you want!” is the motto of this application; however, it does not seem that it has been published to serve you. The researchers of anti-spyware-101.com have implemented a research and found out that ShieldPlus is just a typical advertising-supported application. Thus, its main purpose is to drive traffic to different websites and advertise various products. The program is very similar to Browser Guardian. If you encountered it in the past, you will know that it is better to remove ShieldPlus as well. It is especially advisable to do that if it has slithered onto your computer without your permission.
