The CC Search ring of websites has added one more domain to its tally with Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com, another fake search engine that gives you bad search results and uses browser hijackers to take control of your web browser. Although these problems are typical to all CC Search websites, SpywareRemove.com malware experts encourage you to avoid underestimating the danger inherent in any visit to Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com, since exposure to drive-by-download scripts, phishing sites and other forms of browser-based attacks may be included in the experience. Any symptoms of browser redirects leading to Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com should be fought with suitable anti-malware applications, although you may need to use particularly-secure system boot methods to run such programs without interference from a Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com-affiliated rootkit or Trojan.

Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com – One of the Few CC Search Sites with a Fitting Name

All currently-known CC Search sites make use of the same template and the same types of attacks that use your PC as nothing more than a way to make money by exposing you to irrelevant and advertisement-based websites. Although Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com is a prime example, others include Eminentsearchsystem.com, Uniquesearchsystem.com, Nailingsearchsystem.com, Wonderfulserchsystem.com, neatsearchsystem.com, Noblesearchsystem.com and Strikingsearchsystem.com. Browser hijackers may redirect you to Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com or another one of these websites over and over again, or they may rotate through Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com and other CC Search websites evenly; in either case, contact with any of these sites should be considered harmful for your PC.

Minimizing your interaction with Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com will help to reduce your exposure to other forms of malicious websites, since Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com, as a fake search engine, provides links to irrelevant and potentially dangerous sites, instead of giving you relevant search results. However, even a small amount of contact with Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com can cause your PC to be infected via drive-by-download exploits. Having an up-to-date browser and using strong security settings will reduce, if not eliminate this possibility.

How to Tell When Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com isn't Just on the Web Anymore

Although it's easy enough to avoid Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com if your PC hasn't been compromised, Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com and other CC Search sites are well-known for using browser-hijacking rootkits to redirect traffic to themselves. SpywareRemove.com malware researchers note that browser hijackers, while dangerous enough in and of themselves, are only a symptom of a larger infection that can be used for a range of attacks, including allowing criminals to access and control your PC. You can notice Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com browser hijack attacks by watching out for:

  • Seeing Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com set to be your default homepage.
  • Being taken to Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com or to results from Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com when you try to use other types of search engines.
  • Being unable to change your web browser's settings.
  • Being unable to use security and anti-malware programs.

The latter can be fixed by using Safe Mode or a boot from an external device, depending on the severity of the infection. Afterwards, removing the browser hijacker for Unexceptionablesearchsystem.com with a complete system scan is the recommended course of action, and will insure that no harm befalls your PC during the deletion process.
