NanoSearch

The NanoSearch Web browser add-on is an extension that is not trustworthy. To mislead users into installing it, the NanoSearch extension may claim to enhance their search results. However, you can be sure that the purpose of this Web browser add-on is not to enhance your browsing quality but to introduce unwanted changes to your system’s settings.

When you install the NanoSearch add-on, the extension will immediately get to work and change the configurations of your Web browser. This will result in two affiliated websites set up as your default new tab page and default search engine – Feed.nano-search and Portal.nano-search.com. Since the NanoSearch Web browser extension fails to get the user’s explicit consent before meddling with their system’s settings, it is listed as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). Using the two affiliated websites does not pose a threat to your system or your data, but you are likely to come across an increased number of advertisements.

It is advisable to eliminate the NanoSearch Web browser extension via an up-to-date, trustworthy anti-malware security suite.
