If your web browsers welcome you every time you open them by showing you a website at allinsearch.com, you can be certain that they have been infected with a browser hijacker by an unwanted program. Most of these parasite programs are adware whose publicity will be shown non-stop on your computer whilst they modify your browser’s settings to install a browser hijacker, in this case allinsearch.com.
First of all they will modify your default homepage, as a result every time you open your browser or hit the home button you’ll be redirected towards a search engine available at allinsearch.com. However, that’s not all they do, they will also change your default search engine, in such a way that every time you attempt to do a search directly on the address bar or on the search zone of your browser you’ll get results coming from allinsearch.com.
allinsearch.com’s goal is quite simple… to increase their advertising income they need to also increase traffic towards several websites that will show their ads, that’s why they change those settings on your browsers.
Parasites such as allinsearch.com are installed while you’re installing some freeware or fake program like video players and pdf readers that turn out to be completely useless.
