StreamItSearch

Posted: July 27, 2020

StreamItSearch is a dodgy browser add-on that may claim to offer cool and exciting features that are convincing enough to get you to install it – however, once the StreamItSearch add-on is up and running on your computer, it may not deliver on its promises. Instead of enhancing your Web browser's functionality, it may tamper with your browsers' settings by modifying your default search engine to Streamit-search.com. This change is not unsafe, but it may hinder your Web searching experience since you will end up being redirected to Streamit-search.com whenever you try to search the Web. This website delivers some search results, but they are not nearly as credible as those on Yahoo, Bing, Google and other well-liked search engines.

The StreamItSearch extension is marked as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP), and it can be removed by using an up-to-date PC security tool. It also should be possible to get rid of it manually, but it is a better idea to do it via a professional security scanner since this can ensure the full removal of all of StreamItSearch's components.
