MyOnlySearch is an adware extension that may be advertised falsely as a utility that can enhance your online shopping by providing you with special deals, coupon codes, product suggestions, price comparison charts, and other shopping related information that may help you find the best purchases constantly. MyOnlySearch may use software bundling to reach new users, so many of the users exposed to MyOnlySearch ads may not even remember agreeing to install this adware extension.

MyOnlySearch may not work as promised, and you can rest assured that this extension will not boost your online shopping experience. In fact, MyOnlySearch may make it worse because of its ability to inject numerous unwanted advertisements in all active Web browser windows. MyOnlySearch advertisements may sometimes contain misleading content or offers to purchase bogus product and services, and that's why we advise users to stay away from the pages advertised via the MyOnlySearch ads.

This adware isn't threatening, but the ads it may inject can be very annoying and potentially harmful if you are not careful. If you notice MyOnlySearch ads in your Web browser, you should attempt to resolve the issue immediately by downloading and installing a potent and updated anti-malware software package. This should be enough to ensure the full removal of MyOnlySearch, and that the adware will not have a chance to preserve any of its components on your computer.
