The Search.mysafesearch.net site is associated with the MySafeSearch browser extension aimed at Google Chrome users. MySafeSearch browser extension can be found at Mysafesearch.net where users are offered to install the app for free and benefit from a quick, easy and convenient search result for their everyday needs. Search.mysafesearch.net is said to be the best source of localized results, image, videos, and news that you can access via the MySafeSearch add-on. Computer security researchers note that MySafeSearch may appear to work like My Web Shield and claim to offer a safe search, but you should not be fooled. The MySafeSearch add-on is recognized as a browser hijacker that may arrive on your system with a free program bundle and redirect you to Search.mysafesearch.net. The MySafeSearch browser hijacker might change your new tab page, primary search provider, and home page settings to Search.mysafesearch.net.
Researchers revealed that the MySafeSearch add-on is a customized version of Chumsearch.com browser hijacker that was added to our database on January 23rd, 2017. The portals hosted on Search.mysafesearch.net, Mysafesearch.net, and Chumsearch.com prevent legitimate search aggregators from indexing their content and users may be provided with links to phishing pages and fake software updates. Your input on Search.mysafesearch.net may be recorded and shared with untrusted redirect gateways like Feed.snowbitt.com, which is related to the Search.chipopo.info browser hijacker and riskware. Search.mysafesearch.net is not classified as a reliable search service and content made available via the MySafeSearch browser hijacker is not likely to be safe. Search.mysafesearch.net does not support the HTTPS encryption, and your Internet traffic is not protected. Third parties may collect data including text, presentations, spreadsheets, images, photos, audio and video that you may upload to Search.mysafesearch.net. It is not a good idea to input contact details, credit card data, and personally identifiable information that can be traced back to you and used to blackmail you. PC users that are redirected to Search.mysafesearch.net and are looking for a way to remove the MySafeSearch browser hijacker might want to install a trusted anti-malware tool that can eliminate unwanted software on your system safely.
