Websearch.searchandfly.info is a kind of browser
redirect virus used by cyber hackers to make money. By modifying users’
browser settings, it can keep redirecting their search results to
specified websites which promote certain products or services. Once the
redirect virus sneaks into your computer, it alters Proxy settings and
Windows Hosts files so that it can block you from browsing the Internet
as usual. Then, it changes your default homepage to
Websearch.searchandfly.info, and correspondingly the search engine is
changed to a new one. Every time you run the browser, the strange
website will appear as your homepage, offering an unknown search engine
with which you can search for web, images or videos. However, if you
search for something using the new search engine, you may be always
redirected to some irrelevant websites. By redirecting you to particular
domains, the webmasters of those websites may earn money. It is
important that you think twice before buying any products or services
promoted in the websites you are redirected to, or you may just pay
money for some useless products or non-existing services. Additionally,
this redirect virus may install some unwanted toolbars onto your
browser, which may pop up a lot of ads on the web pages you are viewing.
To deliver more precise ads to you, the redirect virus will also
collect your personal information by monitoring your online activities.
If you don’t want to end up being a victim of identity theft, you should
take immediate actions to remove this redirect virus as soon as you
notice its presence.
