• Description of bit-search.com

3

• BIT-SEARCH.COM is a fishing website which
  generates constant pop-up ads on the web browser.
  BIT-SEARCH.COM has been identified as a very
  hazardous browser hijacker virus, which is
  usually used by cyber criminals to perform
  malicious activities. The pesky pop-up malware
  aims to advertise its products and services so as
  to gather illegal profit.

4

• Once it gets inside your workstation,
  BIT-SEARCH.COM is able to pop up to block your
  browser. It will try hard to carry out malicious
  actions once finishing the infiltration through
  unverified free shares and spam email
  attachments. And it may alter some system
  settings without your notice, through which
  BIT-SEARCH.COM is capable of launching by itself
  when you start up the workstation.

5

• The pesky program often makes changes to
  important system settings such as boot-up
  setting, registry keys, desktop settings, DNS
  settings and browser add-ons without asking for
  any permission. Moreover, this nasty virus will
  drop many other viruses to increase the speed of
  damaging the whole system. Then BIT-SEARCH.COM
  pop-up activates automatically in the background
  each time the machine launches.

6

• Whats more, BIT-SEARCH.COM even forces you to
  download unwanted programs and that program will
  consume lots of system resources. Besides, it
  takes up high system resources and slows down the
  whole PC performance seriously. As a result, the
  workstation will run much slower than before.

7

• It attacks Chrome, IE and Firefox and causes a
  lot of chaos. Basically, if you dont want to get
  infected by BIT-SEARCH.COM, you should be more
  careful when you install some free software from
  malicious websites. The malware could redirect
  your home page to unknown domains at times.
  Thats because this hijacker virus often can
  install automatically when you install those
  unsafe programs.

8

• It appears on the screen from time to time to
  show you fake messages asking you to download
  Flash Player, Media Player or Java Updates. So
  you are not supposed to download any suspicious
  programs from the Internet. These windows are not
  real but can lead you to unpredictable dangers.
  By the way, if the machine is infected by this
  virus, you will be annoyed by millions of pop-up
  ads, which pop up every now and then surfing
  online.
