Suddenly Websearch.thesearchpage.info took over your homepage and you cannot remove it.
Websearch.thesearchpage.info is categorized as a browser hijacker. Once the add-on infects your system, it will make a complete mess of things. It will start by changing your default homepage and search engine, but it won’t stop there. The tool will make all kinds of changes it feels like making, without bothering to ask for your permission first. You’ll be left to deal with the consequences. The best thing, you can do when you realize the hijacker has invaded your computer, is to delete it immediately.
How did I get infected with?
Websearch.thesearchpage.info often sneaks in by hiding behind false system or program updates. You might be thinking you’re installing a Java or a Flash update, while, in reality, you’re opening the door to a hijacker. The situation is almost identical when it comes to freeware. During freeware installation, most users are in a rush to finish the process and agree to all the terms and conditions without reading them. Because of their impatience, they got stuck with the hijacker. Websearch.thesearchpage.info can also enter undetected by using corrupted links, corrupted websites and spam email attachments.
Why is this dangerous?
There are several frustrating and harmful issues you’ll have to deal with after Websearch.thesearchpage.info has infected your system. For one, once it enters your PC, the add-on is no longer bound to ask for your permission before implementing changes. Imagine how irritating it is to have constant changes made to your system without you being aware of them. But that’s not the only major issue you’ll have to deal with. Websearch.thesearchpage.info will also keep a close eye on every move you make, catalog it, and then send the collected data to the unknown third parties behind it. Once the information is in their hands, these individuals can use it however they see fit. The data will include all of your browsing activities, i.e. your web searches, IP address, and any personal and financial information you might have shared. That means your name, phone number, bank account. That is a serious security risk you can avoid by getting rid of the program as soon as you find out you have been infected with it.
