Rabbitsearch.net

By GoldSparrow in Browser Hijackers

The RabbitSearch.net hosts a custom build of the legitimate Google search engine that performs poorly and may not deliver the same quality of results as the original Google engine. Users that like to install freeware via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option may install the RabbitSearch search assistant by Copellov Ltd. and have their homepage, and default search engine changed to RabbitSearch.net. The RabbitSearch search assistant has versions for Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome that may modify your browser settings and add a registry key to obstruct manual changes of your settings. Security researchers alert that the RabbitSearch.net domain is associated with a browser hijacker that may redirect your searches to RabbitSearch.net and feature links to potentially harmful Internet locations and redirect you to insecure online resources. Additionally, the Rabbitsearch.net search assistant may insert in-text hyperlinks to sponsored content and show banners and pop-ups loaded with ads. Users infected with the Rabbitsearch.net browser hijacker may wish to remove all files associated with Rabbitsearch.net on their computer by using a reputable anti-malware application.
