Search.myrecipesxp.com
Although Search.myrecipesxp.com would like to be the “must-have app for recipes,” we would rather call it the “should-not-have app” due to the fact that this tool may cause virtual security-related issues for your computer. As a matter of fact, we have labeled this tool a browser hijacker since it has the ability to change your browser settings, namely, the home page and the default search engine. It is also possible that this happens without your permission. Although, to be quite frank, most of the time it is the user who does not realize the option presented by the installers to make these browser setting changes or not. Overlooking the designated checkboxes may create the feeling of being attacked by an infection even if, in reality, we allow it to come on board. Nevertheless, its presence can expose you to potentially unsafe third-party web content, not to mention that this browser hijacker may not even come alone. ...

FileShareFanatic Toolbar
You should not install FileShareFanatic Toolbar by any means because it is definitely not trustworthy software. Yes, this browser plugin tries to convince users that it will enable them to send large files, upload and transfer documents, and find reliable online data storage services; however, we do not think that it is the reason to keep this browser plugin. We have already encountered hundreds of similar browser plugins developed by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc., so we know what we can expect from FileShareFanatic Toolbar. If you have also found FileShareFanatic Toolbar rather annoying, or simply feel that it has appeared on your Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox without permission, you should get rid of FileShareFanatic Toolbar. ...

People who download and install Sound+ on their systems do that for one main reason – they believe that Sound+ will help them to improve the sound quality. If you visit its official website and check it, you will notice very soon that Sound+ promise to improve the sound quality of music you listen through headphones.

goMovix Start
goMovix Start has been categorized as a potentially unwanted program (PUP) because it might put your virtual security at risk. Of course, the infections that belong to this category do not mean direct danger to your computer or your privacy, but there is still a chance that indirectly they might cause system security issues. This browser extension seems to affect only Google Chrome. Once you install it, your home page and new tab page settings will change. What you will find in your browser, however, will potentially pose a threat. But do not feel safe if you never use Chrome, it does not mean that your computer is not infected with other threats. ...
GetFlightInfo Toolbar
GetFlightInfo Toolbar is a browser plugin that promises to enable users to “check flight status quickly and easily.” This piece of software claims that you will not only get information on arrivals, departures, and cancellations, but will also be enabled to access travel guides, restaurant reviews, and even get flight directions. The toolbar seems to be very useful at first sight, so it is not surprising at all that many users click the Install button placed on its official website. Actually, we do not recommend doing that. First of all, there is a possibility that GetFlightInfo Toolbar will put your system at risk. Secondly, GetFlightInfo Toolbar claims on its official website that it provides third-party information for users and cannot guarantee “the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the results.” ...

It is possible that right now you will not be able to use it as a search engine, but it is still important to know what kind of potential risks it can mean if it has found a way to your computer. Even more so, because it is mostly spread bundled with other malicious software installers, which means multiple security-related issues for you. So, this browser hijacker may not even be your biggest problem right now, or, at least, not the only one. Therefore, the best thing you can do now is to remove Intsearch.info and perform a full system malware scan to see if there are any other threats present. ...
