Seek123.net

Seek123.net is an unreliable search engine that may be set as your default new tab page, even though you might not remember doing such a thing. This may happen because the authors of Seek123.net rely on browser hijackers to bring more users to their page. The purpose of a browser hijacker is to modify a Web browser's settings so that it points the user to a particular page. However, the hijacker is only able to do so if the users agree to install it on their computers, and this is why the Seek123.net hijacker may often be found in low-quality software bundles that offer users to set the Seek123.net page as their default new tab. The bundles that do this may often claim that Seek123.net offers advanced searching features that will enhance the user's ability to search the Web greatly, but the harsh truth is that Seek123.net doesn't do anything of this sort. In fact, Seek123.net's search feature does not even work, and users will always get zero results regardless of the search term they use.

Seek123.net may be linked to more than one browser hijacking application, and apparently, its owners also use different domain names that can be used to reach the same page. We've identified Seekdot.net to be an alternative version of Seek123.net and, unfortunately, the search feature hosted there does not work as well. Although Seek123.net does not seem to be associated with any threatening behavior, we advise users against keeping this page as their default new tab page. The primary reason for this is that the search feature does not work but even if it did, using a fairly unpopular page to search the Web might not be a good idea since it might provide manipulated search results, or bombard you with ads. If you believe that either the Seek123.net or Seekdot.net pages were added to your Web browser's settings by mistake, then we advise you to take the necessary actions to resolve the issue. The best way to do that is to check for any unknown or suspicious Web browser extensions, uninstall them manually or run an anti-malware scanner.
