Safesear.ch is a browser hijacker that changes your default home page and search engine. It is sometimes hard to tell it apart from legal search engines, because Safesear.ch is generally affiliated with google.com/search_service, however, the reliability of this domain is highly doubtful. Technically, this search engine is supposed to improve your overall web search experience, but the question is whether a search engine that simply redirects you to another search provider is good enough to keep in on your PC. It is in your best interest to remove Safesear.ch from your system and restore your browser to default settings.

It goes without saying that Google Search is a reliable search provider, but as far as Safesear.ch is concerned, you should avoid using the domain. If it has been set as your default search provider, you most probably have installed an application that comes with a setup file for Safesear.ch. Such domains can hardly be considered malicious computer threats, but at the same time they often function as vehicles for malware distribution or third party content promotion. One should not rule out the possibility that Safesear.ch may expose you to potentially malicious third party content, and therefore it is necessary terminate Safesear.ch as soon as possible.

It is highly probable that Safesear.ch may display third party commercial advertisements, and that is exactly the thing you need to avoid. This search engine does not review the promotional third party content, so basically anyone can embed their links in Safesear.ch. Should you click a pop-up with a corrupted outgoing link, you would be redirected to an unfamiliar website that may infect your PC and or try stealing your money, by pushing you into unnecessary subscription. It is very often that random pop-ups claim you have won something in a lottery, however, to claim your trophy you need to enter a lot of personal and financial information.

If you submit the information to a third party, it is very likely that you will be robbed, so to prevent that from happening, remove Safesear.ch right now. Scan the system with SpyHunter free scanner to determine what programs you must terminate. Invest in a licensed antimalware tool that will help you delete all the unwanted applications automatically, and finally, reset your browser settings to default.
