Computer users that want to expand their search capabilities and are not content with their online search tools may want to install the Zebrouss search enhancer and use the Search.zebrouss.com search engine. The Zebrouss search enhancer can be installed from free software bundles only. The Zebrouss search enhancer may be accompanied by software like Shoptowin and MyEmoticons that may crash your browser and slow down your computer. Moreover, the Zebrouss software is recognized as a browser hijacker that might modify your DNS settings to reroute your Internet traffic via Search.zebrouss.com and block content on websites you visit often. Security experts note that the Zebrouss browser hijacker subjects users to use Search.zebrouss.com for their Internet searches and may enter a registry key in Windows to prevent users from accessing some Web pages.

You may be lead to believe that Search.zebrouss.com is a search engine, but it is a redirect-gateway to third-party services, and you may visit untrusted domains. The layout of the Search.zebrouss.com page may look like Google and users could mistake it for the legitimate Google engine. However, Search.zebrouss.com does not provide search capabilities, and its primary function is to record what keywords you enter and help advertisers show you related deals, coupons and vouchers. The Zebrouss browser hijacker may use JavaScript to inject pop-ups, banners and inline ads on your favorite websites. When users search for news on Search.zebrouss.com, they will be redirected to the news feed on Google. The other options for searching images, videos and text are handled by Yahoo. You may notice the option 'Shopping' in the top left corner that will lead users to the e-commerce portal SaveFront.com that does not use HTTPS encryption and users are not advised to shop on. The Zebrouss browser hijacker might affect Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, and place its files in the hidden Temp folder. Security experts recommend users to install a trustworthy anti-malware application that can delete the browser hijacker associated with Search.zebrouss.com.
