WebSearch.AllSearches.info Removal Guide

WebSearch.AllSearches.info is a browser hijacker, which is promoted via other free downloads, and once installed it will change your browser homepage and default search engine to WebSearch.AllSearches.info.

The WebSearch.AllSearches.info hijack is used to boost advertising revenue, as in the use of blackhat SEO, to inflate a site’s page ranking in search results.

For example, when you install VPlay, you will also agree to change your browser homepage and default search engine to WebSearch.AllSearches.info.
However when you uninstall VPlay from your computer, your web browser’s default settings will not be restored. This means that you’ll have to remove WebSearch.AllSearches.info homepage from your favorite web browser manually.
