By the way, Amisites can affect all of most popular web browsers, including Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge and Mozilla Firefox.

If your computer is not infected with this infection, it might be not possible to reach amisites.com website – you will get redirected to Google. However, if your web browsers are infected with it, this website will appear as a homepage. In addition to that, browser shortcuts and search provider will be changed and set to that website as well.

By the way, Amisites is almost similar with other browser hijacker called Nuasearch.com. Even though it’s not clear, we think that those two viruses are closely affiliated or even produced by the same developer. Speaking of which, it is still unknown who developed Amisites virus – all information about this infection is a top secret. That’s why we are really concerned about this tool – you should never trust a service that is provided by unknown source. In the event of some problems caused by this tool, no one will be responsible for the received damage.

As you might already know, Amisites virus can be added to web browsers and infect them. That’s because this tool is operating as a browser add-on. So if your computer is infected with Amisites malware, some files will be stored directly on your computer in some specific folders (also, changes on Windows Registry is possible as well), and an add-on will be placed directly to one or several of your Internet browsers.

Now, when you know what is this virus all about, lets talk about more in-depth details of this infection. It is typical for browser hijackers to take advantage of infected web browsers and direct web traffic where they want to. So if you are using Internet browser with Amisites installed on it, you can expect random redirects to websites that are affiliated with this virus. Sadly, those websites often happens to be malicious as well, thus we suggest to abandon them immediately.

Another unwanted feature of Amisites – tracked search queries. This website should be serving as a search engine, just like Google or Yahoo. All searches submitted to Amisites will be executed via Google, so it seems to be OK. However, it’s not ok because every single word you fill in there is being tracked. That being said, if you type in some of your private and sensitive information, it will be recorded and can be transferred to third parties later on. That’s very dangerous, as your data can end up in the hands of other cyber criminals, so they could attack you easier.
