Searchall.network

Posted: October 4, 2018

Searchall.network is a basic search engine, which delivers results by using the Google Search algorithm. This page is not considered to be unsafe, and using it on a regular basis should not cause you any problems since the website functions reliably and is not linked to any suspicious services or software. However, some users might end up having to use Searchall.network on a daily basis even though they have never visited this website before. This may happen due to the accidental installation of a browser hijacker or a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) whose primary purpose is to set Searchall.network as the default new tab page used by Google Chrome or other popular Web browsers.

Although Searchall.network is yet to be linked to a specific plug-in, security researchers have uncovered several other websites, which usual an identical design to Searchall.network:

  • Livemediasearch.systems by the ‘Rush Music Search’ extension.
  • Livemediasearch.plus by the ‘Music Search Tool’ extension.
  • Mediaaccess.live by the ‘Enhanced Media Search’ extension
  • Livemediasearch.tools by the ‘Media Search Plugin’ extension.

All of these extensions can only be installed if the user authorizes them to replace the browser’s new tab page with the corresponding website. These add-ons are not unsafe, but their installation may worsen your browsing experience so that you should think carefully whether it is worth installing them or not.

If the Searchall.network appears as your new tab whenever you use your Web browser, then we advise you to take the required actions to dispose of the troublemaking application responsible for the problem.
