Score Stars

The ScoreStars Search is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that causes redirects of users’ search queries. When installed on a computer, ScoreStars Search changes the affected browser’s default search engine to feed.score-stars.com. Furthermore, this PUP tries to generate advertising revenues by using the Yahoo Search – the ScoreStars Search redirects the user’s search queries to feed.score-stars.com, which in turn, redirects them to result pages from search.yahoo.com. Another potentially unsafe feature of the ScoreStars Search is its ability to track the victim’s searches and browsing history and display harmful advertisements.

If you are infected with the ScoreStars Search, you also may find a browser extension or a program with the same name installed on your computer. This unsafe program type usually comes bundled with other software products and get installed without the user’s notice. It is recommended to choose the custom installation option when installing programs so that you can avoid unwanted tools. You can easily remove ScoreStars Search manually, or you use a malware removal tool.
