Customsearch.info

Posted: August 20, 2020

Customsearch.info is a basic search engine that may be brought to your Web browser by a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that poses a helpful browser add-on. One of the extensions serving this purpose may be called 'Custom Search,' but it might go under other names. The extension is likely to promise you enhanced search features, but its true goal is to promote Customsearch.info by setting as your browser's default new tab page and search aggregator. While there is nothing unsafe in this activity, it is intrusive, and the majority of users are likely to hate it.

If your Web browser starts to redirect you to Customsearch.info suddenly without your approval, then it is likely that this redirection is caused by a 3rd-party browser add-on that you have installed recently. If you cannot identify and remove the culprit manually, you should do it with the help of a security tool capable of removing Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs).
