Search.searchhdrp.com Removal Guide

Search.searchhdrp.com is an unreliable search engine that could display modified Yahoo search results. It means that your search results could have additional commercial ads or sponsored links that might redirect you to potentially harmful web pages. The problem is that such sites could invade your privacy by gathering personal data or infect your system with malware. If you want to avoid these risks, you should remove Search.searchhdrp.com from your browser. This search engine appears after the installation of a particular extension. Thus, for you to be able to change your browser preferences you should not only reset your browser, but also remove the extension. If you scroll below the text, you will find removal instructions that will explain this process to you in more detail.

Search.searchhdrp.com is set by an extension called HD Radio Player New Tab. This extension might also change your homepage or new tab page, and that is why it was categorized as a browser hijacker. It could be download from Chrome Web Store or you might receive it while installing bundled software. Usually, users download bundled installers from suspicious file-sharing web pages. Such sites might bundle various applications with browser hijackers, adware, potentially unwanted programs, etc. That is why you should download programs only from websites that are trustworthy, e.g. suggest legitimate applications created by reliable developers.

As mentioned earlier, if you search for any information with Search.searchhdrp.com, the software will use Yahoo engine to gather the results, which should be modified. For example, they could show you untrustworthy third-party ads that might redirect you to malicious websites. Such sites might contain Trojans, viruses, or other malware. HD Radio Player New Tab might also add a small radio icon on the top-right corner of your browser. If you click this icon, it will only redirect you to Search.searchhdrp.com.

However, according to the extension’s description on the Google Chrome Web Store, the application should grant you access to online radio. There are quite a few positive user reviews claiming that it actually works, although the research shows that it should not. Our specialists think that these comments could be fake because when you click on the name of the user who left the review you are redirected to a Google+ profile, which contains only a photo and nothing else. Thus, it seems that the extension can only provide you an unreliable search engine and a few links to web pages related to music. If you like these links, we would advise you to include them to your bookmarks bar instead because both the extension and the search engine do not seem to be safe to use.

If you decide to stop using Search.searchhdrp.com, you can remove it manually with the instructions below. They will tell you how to erase HD Radio Player New Tab extension and how to reset your browser. After this, you should be able to change your search engine, new tab page, or homepage to any site that you prefer. If this seems too complicated, you can install an antimalware tool and use it to get rid of the browser hijacker.
