  • Its official web site reveals that G-search.pro
    is a legitimate browser add-on that enhances you
    web browsing experience by improving the outcome
    of online search results. Like known search
    engine as Google and Bing, G-search.pro employs
    simple and clean user interface. Therefore, many
    computer users are deceived with this unwanted
    search engine. G-search.pro is a browser hijacker
    that is part of a large group of adware family.
    This browser hijacker is bundled with suspicious
    free software that you may obtain from internet,
    especially when visiting questionable download
    sites. Once Pro Search and associated adware is
    installed on the PC, it directly set the homepage
    and search engine to said web address.

  • Recent research uncovers that downloading and
    installing dubious freeware is the main cause for
    G-search.pro infection. Publishers are utilizing
    deceitful techniques, promoting their program as
    worthy tool, but once installed, this application
    never delivers and instead commence the
    unexpected. This adware shows dominance by
    controlling the browsers home page and search
    engine. Both are set to utilize G-search.pro,
    overriding your default setup. The homepage
    itself is not considered harmful, particularly if
    it is utilizing known search provider. However,
    if ever it is resolving to unknown search engine
    other than Google, Bing, or Yahoo, there is a
    possibility that it can cause some harm on the
    computer. Redirecting to dubious search portal
    also endangers your online privacy.
