The Yoursearchweb.com domain is operated by the Hongkong Zoekyu Technology Ltd. and offers integrated search services from Google, Bing, Yahoo, and Ask. The Yoursearchweb.com domain is associated with a browser extension that many freeware fans may find to accompany programs such as Crimsolite and FileScout. The YourSearchWeb software may appear as an add-on, plug-in, toolbar, extension, and Browser Helper Object (BHO) depending on your default Internet client. The YourSearchWeb software is designed to change the user's search settings, and you may be redirected to Yoursearchweb.com whenever you type in the address bar, the Omnibox and the search field of your browser. The Yoursearchweb.com page may provide search results from Google, Bing, Yahoo and Ask, but it does not use HTTPS encrypted connections and users may be presented with a security alert on their screen when they try to access protected content.

Security researchers note that the YourSearchWeb software may not be a safe application and is deemed as a browser hijacker. The YourSearchWeb browser hijacker may disable safety mechanisms in your Internet client to load insecure resources, and may place advertisements on your new tab page. Computer users that have installed the YourSearchWeb browser hijacker are not advised to log in their social media profiles, shopping accounts, and online banking portals to minimize the risk of third parties accessing data like their recent purchases and credit card data. Security experts report that the YourSearchWeb browser hijacker is a modified version of YesSearches and is almost identical to the one linked to Nuesearch.com. The YourSearchWeb browser hijacker may limit your access to the Internet and expose users to advanced Web-based threats. The YourSearchWeb browser hijacker may run as an executable DLL from the temp directory and avoid detection. Therefore, you need to use a reputable anti-malware instrument to remove the YourSearchWeb and clean your PC.
