Search.shareazaweb.net

Search.shareazaweb.net is a tricky website, which is connected with browser hijackers such as Shareaza Toolbar. Shareaza Toolbar is pushed via other freeware (download-managers, video recording/streaming or PDF creators) downloads, While installed, Shareaza Toolbar will embed the Shareaza Music Toolbar, replace the default homepage with Search.shareazaweb.net, and the default search provider with Ask.com. Shareaza Toolbar will show annoying pop-up ads and sponsored links in hacked search results of any genuine search tool, and may gather search terms from hacked search queries. Shareaza Toolbar may be used to increase traffic of the specific advertisement website by using blackhat SEO techniques and benefit from the pay-per-click technique. Shareaza Toolbar may also be found as a PUP (potentially unwanted program). Shareaza Toolbar is also packaged within the custom installer on many download websites, such as Brothersoft, Softonic, or CNET so if the web user has downloaded a certain application from these websites, Shareaza Toolbar might have been installed as well throughout the setup process of the application.
