I wrote this article to help you remove Searchiincognito.com. This Searchiincognito.com removal guide works for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Searchiincognito.com is not the reliable search engine it claims to be. In fact, this site`s constant appearance indicates the presence of a browser hijacker on your machine. If you see it, you have a pest on board. A pest, which uses this page as a front to lurk behind as well as a way of announcing its princes. Needless to say, you must not ignore this warning. As soon as you spot the malicious page taking over, start looking for the place the hijacker is hiding and when you find it, delete the infection on the spot.

No cyber parasite should be taken lightly. Not even this hijacker which is a part of a cyber family that experts consider not that dangerous. But every infection goes out of control eventually. The more time you grant this hijacker on your machine, the more problems it will cause you. Act now before it is too late. Trust us when we say that you don’t want to deal with this infection once it gets out of hand. Don’t waste your time. Delete it immediately. The sooner, the better.

Searchiincognito.com starts causing you problems the minute it enters your PC. Your browsers are its first victim. The pest ads to them its pesky extension thus taking complete control over Mozilla, Chrome and Internet Explorer. You start noticing some strange changes in their settings which you did not approve whatsoever. For instance, all of a sudden your previous home page and search engine get replaced with the Searchiincognito.com page. Of course, you were neither informed nor asked for permission for this reshuffle.

You just open your browser one day only to realize that you are stuck with a brand new and highly questionable search engine which mostly generates sponsored web links. Yes, you are not provided the safe and accurate search results you were promised. Instead, you are provided a very quick access to malware. You cannot surf the web at peace anymore. You cannot find anything you are looking for online. Aside from that, you are also bombarded with tons of annoying commercials and redirected to shady pages.

Your whole screen is covered with coupons, deals, offers, etc. which pop in front of you and block pages` contact. What is more, if you accidentally or intentionally click on the wrong ad, you help crooks make money. Yes, they use the pay-per-click system to earn illegitimate profits and they use you as their sponsor. However, aside from sponsoring hackers with your clicks, you are also putting your machine in danger. These ads are not safe. Just like the search results, they are potentially dangerous and a single click on the wrong one brings you more infections on board. And the last thing you need is more parasites on your already underperforming machine.

The hijacker you have is more than enough. Due to it, your previous pleasant browsing experience is now gone and you are always a single click away from malware. Also, your computer slows down which makes it difficult to use it even when you are offline. And like this is not enough, the hijacker jeopardizes your privacy by spying on you, collecting valuable information and sending it to the crooks who developed it. We doubt that you need more reasons to get rid of this pest. Use our removal guide at the end of this article and regain control over your PC.

But how did you get stuck with Searchiincognito.com in the first place? This site does not feature a “download” button, so it is safe to say that you didn’t install it on purpose. And yet, here it is. Infections like this rely on trickery and deceit to enter your machine. They need your permission on their installment and they turn to sneaky tactics to get it. Like freeware bundling, for instance. The hackers could easily attach the hijacker to another program and if you are not careful when installing this program you get the infection as a “bonus”. To prevent that, you need to be extra vigilant and not in a rush.

Crooks pray for your haste, distraction, and carelessness. Next time you are installing a bundle, take your time to read the Terms and Conditions. Don’t rush to press “next” without knowing what you are agreeing to. Also, opt for the Custom settings in the Setup Wizard instead of the Basic ones. This way, you can see all additionally attached programs in the bundle and deselect them. Caution is how you keep your machine infection-free. Don’t forget that.
