MyAllSearch Toolbar and MyAllSearch.com Image

MyAllSearch Toolbar is a toolbar that comes with a low-level search engine located on MyAllSearch.com. Basically, low-level search engine websites like MyAllSearch.com are created to profit from advertisement revenue. MyAllSearch Toolbar may display results that are irrelevant to the computer user and that are mostly composed of advertisements and affiliate links to websites that tend to contain undesirable content. Whenever a computer user attempts to do an online search and has been infected with a browser hijacker, a browser hijacker may redirect a computer user's browser to an unwanted website like MyAllSearch.com. ESG security analysts consider that MyAllSearch.com is a website that should be avoided altogether. Any contact with MyAllSearch Toolbar may lead to computer problems and should be followed with an immediate thorough scan of the compromised computer with a legitimate anti-malware application.

Why Would Computer Users Carry Out Searchers on MyAllSearch.com?

Considering the quality of search engines like MyAllSearch.com, and the fact that search engine giants like Yahoo, Bing and Google are only a click away, why would anyone want to use MyAllSearch.com for their online searches? The answer, in fact, is almost no one. However, browser hijackers bypass this inconvenience by giving their victims no choice but visit MyAllSearch.com repeatedly.

Browser hijackers take over the computer user's web browser, forcing it to carry out specific tasks, such as display pop-up windows or visit a particular website repeatedly. Browser hijackers associated with MyAllSearch.com tend to change results on legitimate search engines, altering links so that they link to MyAllSearch.com. Then, an inexperienced computer user may mistake MyAllSearch.com for a dependable search engine and simply try their search again on MyAllSearch.com's search feature. Do not allow browser hijackers to force you to visit MyAllSearch.com against your will! Protect your PC with a good anti-malware program and use common sense while browsing the Internet in order to prevent a browser hijacker infection.
