If you find yourself on a threat-hosting site, it may deploy various cyber threats that may cause substantial damage eventually.

As it was already mentioned, Youndoo.com is related to a harmful add-on that may hijack the Web clients of the user.

Even if you change some of the settings, the next time you go online it may be altered once more to suit the developers of the deceitful search platform.
