Searcheagle.net

By GoldSparrow in Browser Hijackers

The Searcheagle.net site registered to the 104.31.175.8 IP address is presented to Web surfers as a search aggregator that supports a version in Hebrew only. The Searcheagle.net site resembles the official page for Google.com in many ways, including the access to Gmail, the bottom side bar and two search scopes. The design is minimalistic, and you will find advertisements on top, and below the search bar as opposed to a drawing you will expect on Google.com. Computer security experts warn that the layout of Searcheagle.net is nearly identical to Gogole.com, but the site has nothing to do with Google Inc. You should not click the 'Sign in' button in the top left corner of your screen because Searcheagle.net does not support encrypted connection and third parties may record your login credentials for Google.com.
