Remove mysearch.com

The website found at mysearch.com is a search engine found often replacing without previous notice Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer’s homepage. This is due to a hijacking of our settings by a browser hijacker.

Although this website could seem useful at first sight, specially since it has links towards popular and safe websites like Facebook, Amazon, Vimeo, Yahoo, Twitter, Wikipedia, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest and many others, all in one page, we must not forget to consider that its quiet installation must hide some ulterior motive.

It’s quite difficult to get rid of mysearch.com properly because it’s installed in such a way that it ensures its remaining in our computers as long as possible. This usually means that there will be a Windows’ service or process running all the time making sure that it stays installed as homepage in every web browser installed in our computers. This explains that manually changing that particular setting is often not enough to remove it properly.

The following guide includes free software to help you remove not only mysearch.com but also any other malicious, unwanted program that might have stayed invisible to your eyes but that could have arrived at the same time as mysearch.com.
