Bonzesearch.com is a website used to host a dysfunctional search engine that, surprisingly, does not display any results at the moment. The landing page reveals that Bonzesearch.com is linked to a browser extension that goes by the name 'Bonzer Search,' but is unavailable for download currently. It is possible that Bonzer Search might have been removed from the official extension repositories of major Web browsers because its sole purpose seems to be to modify the browser's settings to set Bonzesearch.com as the default homepage or default new tab page.

The Bonzer Search software has been identified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by PC security product vendors so that you can rest assured that it will be kept away from your computer, as long as you use an up-to-date PC security product. If you lack such software and you see Bonzesearch.com whenever you use your web browser regularly, then you might want to consider resolving the issue as soon as possible. While neither Bonzesearch.com nor Bonzer Search is harmful, you can't just ignore that Bonzesearch.com is buggy and it does not serve the purpose it was meant for.

While Bonzer Search can be removed via the browser‘s settings, you might want to consider using a reputable PC security scanner since this is the best way to ensure that all of the extension's components will be erased and Boznersearch.com will not stay in your Web browser's configuration.
