Search Protect by Conduit is a utility that Conduit Search puts on your computer to ensure that the default home pages and search engine installed by it cannot be replaced by anything else. In fact, when you install (voluntarily or not) a toolbar powered by Conduit, your home page is automatically changed if you do not care to customize the installation of this toolbar. You can end up with a search engine like Bing or other spyware like qvo6, zoom nation or awesomehp … and Search Protect protects this configuration from all modifications.
