Screenrecordsearch.com virus - How to remove

Screenrecordsearch.com search engine is related with some browser hijackers that we have previously encountered: Ifastsearch.com, Checkspeedsearch.com and Isearchnow.com. Currently, HopeBest Media Inc., reached a higher level of persistence and users have been notifying about a bunch of unknown platforms for searching that seize the control of browsers’ home pages, default search providers and new tab pages. This invader does produce results to search queries of its own, but redirects people to Google. However, this does not stop a browser hijacker from injecting web links to websites, belonging to its close partners and affiliates.

Further investigation about this browser hijacker

The third-party links and advertisements that Screenrecordsearch.com virus demonstrates are for the sole purpose of increasing web-traffic rankings for specific partners. Associations and agreements that browser hijackers are involved usually do aim to function on completely legal grounds. After looking of Terms of Service for HopeBest Inc., we have concluded that the company does not undertake any responsibilities for its services and disclaims all warranties.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend and hold harmless Hopebest Inc. and the Hopebest Inc. related parties from and against any and all claims, losses, charges, costs, and liability that may arise from your use of Hopebest Products.

This company does not strike us a respectable and its services might be focused on transmission of malware or other secretive activities. Read the following paragraphs to find out more.

Offers to download or renew software tools could be presented as affiliates are permitted to propose downloadable/installable software programs for personal devices including computers, tablets, and mobile phones. If some financial damages occur because you were convinced to download a specific software tool, nor the search engine nor its partners will be responsible for this activity. Every visitor should understand that his/her exploration of the website is not properly secured.

If they encounter ads that are clickable and will lead to remote websites, the dealings that are completed (like purchases or etc) won’t be governed by Screenrecordsearch.com. These domains could belong to vile third-parties that have been focused on transmitting malicious executables via drive-by downloads. Third-parties that pose as legitimate vendors could be pushing around low-quality products or committing straight-up fraud by attempting to steal users’ credentials to their online banking accounts.

If the modifications of browsers’ preferences have been done and you are ready to retrieve control over these settings, there are a couple of methods that this objective can be reached. For instance, you could scan your operating system with an anti-malware tool which should reveal the security status in your device. If there are any malware threats present, Spyhunter or Hitman will propose a cleaning process.

Additionally, you could get rid of malware manually, but then you would have to repeat the guidelines we have enumerated. Since it is unknown which browser extension, add-on or other program delivered the browser hijacker, it might be difficult to get rid of the parasite on your own.

Malware samples have a tendency to be distributed in bundles of programs. This means that while trying to install one application, you might miss conditions, explaining that supplementary programs will also be inserted. Therefore, pay attention to the terms that are enlisted in Setup Wizards. If you find that additional applications are offered, be sure to decline such propositions.

Also, malware could reach your device from malicious online ads and tainted websites. Drive-by downloads were already mentioned in this article, but their importance should not be overlooked. By visiting rogue websites, you could unknowingly agree to an auto-download which will lead to a stealthy implantation of a virus.
