Remove YourSearchWeb

YourSearchWeb.com is a browser hijacker,  in other words a software specially created to change web browser’s behavior, through certain settings modifications including the default homepage, which by the way, the affected user won’t be able to change back once the browser hijacker has taken those settings for itself. We can also say that YourSearchWeb is a Search Hijacker because it redirects all attempts to go to certain websites to malicious pages that will attempt to steal sensible and important data from the affected user. Your Search Web is also a Homepage Hijacker because its main goal is to modify and redirect the user’s default and chosen homepage to force him/her to use a different website, usually a fake search engine.

The unwanted program forcing YourSearchWeb.com and that modifies the default search engine, is usually installed by:

• Install processes meant for free and popular software quietly including the hijacker.
• Fake ads on streaming or torrents websites, usually related to fake updates for Java or Flash or through some other excuse like fake video players.
• Cracks and Keygens
• Sponsored links found in searches done with certain search engines, specially Bing and Yahoo, as they tend to be filled with unwanted programs.
