About Search.moviecorner.com browser hijacker
Search.moviecorner.com is described as awesome tool that will allow you to find various movies online and watch them for free. However, this description is false ad you should not trust it. Once inside of your computer, it will hijack web browsers and change some settings on them. For instance, it will change homepage to www.search.moviecorner.com so every time you open your web browser you will see it instead of www.google.com or other legitimate website. It will also change your default search engine.
Even though it looks like legitimate search engine at first sight, we do not recommend to use it. First of all, it will display various sponsored results that are not labeled as sponsored so you wouldn’t know which one is sponsored and which one is organic. We do not recommend to click on any of those sponsored links because if you do so, you will be immediately redirected to other websites that might be owned by various cyber criminals, such as hackers and scammers. This way your computer can get infected with other viruses or if you attempt to purchase something there you can even get scammed and lose your hard earned money.
Search.moviecorner.com also has some attributes of an adware. Once inside of your system it will flood all those web browsers with various ads in all kins of forms, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual advertisements. New tab or even window with ads on it can be opened at any time as well.
Search.moviecorner.com can be described as advertising network for cyber criminals. Since they are banned from all legitimate advertising networks like Google Adwords or Facebook ads, they use malware like this to promote their websites and drive some traffic to them. That being said, if you keep Search.moviecorner.com installed on your computer, various hackers and scammers will be able to reach you right on your web browsers on a daily basis and that’s very dangerous. Moreover, Search.moviecorner.com can infiltrate other malware into your computer, so the longer you keep it, the higher are stakes that more infections will be infiltrated.
