Recently whenever i open my browsers, it automatically got re-directed to "search-india.net" website. This automatically became my home page and it kept on poping up many ads in midst of the webpages.
Search-India.Net is a browser hijacker Virus and displays lots of dangerous pop ups and spam email attachments on your screen. You are getting pestered with lots of pop ups.The hijacker virus infects your registry and uses it to launch annoying pop up ads out of nowhere.
It is a PUP (Potentially Undesirable Program) and is not detected by any anti virus software. Search-India.Net Virus will shut down your other anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. It will also infect and corrupt your registry, leaving your computer totally unsafe. It takes control of the browser completely without allowing you to make any change.
How to remove this Virus?
Step 1: Open the browsers, and remove 'Browsing History' and all the temporary files and cookies. Reset the home page to blank page.
Step 2 : download 'ADW Cleaner'. Its a freeware - from https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ and run the same.
Step 3: Right Click the Shortcut icon of the browser in your desktop. Go to Properties->Target-> This will show the 'search-india.net' also as trailing to the actual exe path of the browser. Remove the content trailing the .exe path.
Step 4: Restart the browser. It opens with a blank page.
