Posted: March 2, 2016

Seekmx.com is a Spanish search engine that may use browser hijackers to attract more visitors. However, the use of browser hijackers is a shady practice that anti-virus vendors despise, and that's why Seekmx.com is flagged as a suspicious website. The Seekmx.com browser hijacker may use deceptive marketing tricks to get to your computer, and afterward, it may make changes to your Web browser's configuration. Thankfully, the Seekmx.com hijacker isn't threatening, and it can't collect information from your computer, so you don't need to be worried about that. However, it may set Seekmx.com as your homepage, new tab page, and preferred search engine. This change is likely to cause confusion and annoyance because users don't expect to see an unknown Spanish website suddenly in their Web browser.

Apart from serving as a search engine, Seekmx.com also may provide users with quick links to a long list of popular Web destinations. However, these links also may lead to Potentially Unwanted Programs that are falsely advertised as incredible tools and utilities. We advise users to avoid content hosted on Seekmx.com and use an anti-malware scanner on their computer immediately if they see the Seekmx.com website in their Web browser. The Seekmx.com browser hijacker is programmed to scan and modify the Web browser's configuration automatically, so removing it is the only way to restore your Web browser's regular behavior.
