Mysupersearch.net virus - How to remove

Mysupersearch.net is a unsafe computer virus. It operates as a third-party platform for searching and users have reported it as an invader of their browsers. According to them, the unfamiliar guest was assigned as their home page, default search provider and new tab page even without users’ approval. Several other features were noticed to become more evident: increased numbers of the displayed online advertisements even with the AdBlocker enabled and self-starting redirection to remote domains.

Overall, this infection is treated as any other browser hijacker, entering and rearranging browsers/operating systems without verification from the users. Results to search queries that are presented contain sections of “ads” which include URLs to services, products or other types of websites that are sponsored by this search engine.

After executing multiple keywords through the search box of Mysupersearch.net, we noticed a specific tendency. The links that the platform indicates in top-places of results belong to third-parties that have questionable or straight-up negative feedback from users. For instance, Alibaba.com is ill-famous online shopping domain which has been criticized for deceiving users and distributing low-quality products. If you take a look at the results of Google, you would notice that Alibaba is not promoted by it.

Therefore, while creditable search engines will strive for safer results, platforms that are produced by smaller third-party companies will be more concerned with possible revenue. Consequently, they won’t intend to prevent certain third-parties to become their partners. Not all affiliates will be working only for the sake of distributing malware or scamming Internet users, of course. However, comparable search engines have been reported to expose users to potentially hazardous content more than once.

Rogue content could be diverse, but there are certain topics that scammers find the most successful. It appears that technical support scams, fake lotteries, misleading surveys, malicious updates or offers for software are one of the most frequently-encountered ads. Such material could be introduced to users completely randomly; therefore, it will distort browsing and will make you constantly close new windows, pop-ups, banners and avoid in-text ads. Sooner or later, users are fed up with this unsolicited and will require answers why their AdBlocker is not blocking certain content from being displayed.

As a consequence of a browser hijacker, operating systems can function slower and AdBlocker applications are weakened. Majority of the online content will still be blocked, but ads that the infection wishes you to view will be demonstrated. If you have no intention of raising revenues for unknown third-parties, you should exterminate a parasite from malware as soon as you discover its existence.

We can inform you that there are two ways of removing malware from operating systems. Particularly, you have to choose either manual or automatic elimination. The first one can be done without any additional tools, but you must follow specific guidelines (found at the end of this page) to delete malware. If that sounds too complicated, we are offering an easier solution. All you have to do is use an anti-malware tool and it will determine the condition of your operating system. If there are any malware samples detected, Spyhunter or Plumbytes will free devices from it.

Likely techniques to distribute malware

Malware has adopted a number of strategies, focused on spreading viruses all over the Internet. One of the easiest ways to trick users is to distribute bundles of programs but promote them as a single tool. During installation processes, additional tools will be briefly mentioned. Therefore, you should select advanced/custom modes for Setup Wizards and refuse to install any supplementary applications. In general, do not install applications that are developed by unknown sources and might potentially be created for the sake of monitoring users activity or exposing them to objectionable promotional content.
