Remove Doko Search

Doko Search (doko-search.com) is the name of a browser “hijacker” that “hijacks” your homepage on the browsers installed in your computer’s system. Doko Search tries to imitate what Google looks like, but this resemblance doesn’t go much further. The results that Doko Search provides are obviously fake because it will give you the ones that come from Google and put its own results into place, results that might direct you towards online portals and other dangers that threaten your safety.

When you put a new application onto you PC, you must always—without exception—uncheck certain installation options so that unwanted software doesn’t infect your PC.

Most browser hijackers such as Doko Search act in such a way that you will no longer be able to manually change the settings that they’ve modified with your browser’s options, or they manage to put back the wrong settings every time. Doko Search often gets set up on Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer due to various mechanisms: links in the browser’s shortcuts, an add-on inside of the browser and sometimes even a Windows process. If you wish to get rid of Doko Search and get your default homepage back, follow the procedure described here.
