Amisites.com – How to remove?

What is Amisites.com?

Amisites.com is a bad website even though it has an interface of an ordinary search tool. It enables users to search for information in four different categories (web, images, videos, and news), and it does not differ much from other search tools the way it looks; however, it does not mean that this search engine can be trusted. Just like functionpage.com. attirerpage.com, and other untrustworthy search tools, it can cause redirections to bad websites, and it is also known to be able to record information about users. Read this article to find out more about that. If it happens that we succeed in convincing you that it is a bad search engine, you should more carefully read the last paragraph since it explains more about the Amisites.com removal.

How does Amisites.com work?

Amisites.com is one of those search tools that look good, but, in reality, are quite dangerous. As we have already told you in the first paragraph, it is an unreliable search tool in a sense that it shows search results that are full of all kinds of advertisements. The only purpose of these advertisements it to promote third-party websites. In fact, it is very likely that Amisites.com has been created for this only purpose. The developer of this search tool gets money for promoting other pages, but you will, of course, get nothing for visiting those third-party websites it will take you to after you click on any of the commercials you see. You can only allow a bunch of malicious applications to enter the system by visiting websites with an infectious content. It is not worth keeping Amisites.com and using it as the default search engine also because it gathers data about users. Of course, legitimate search tools also do that, but they are not interested in the personal data. We cannot say the same about Amisites.com.

Why do I see Amisites.com set on my browsers?

Browser hijackers are threats that promote questionable search engines. It is very likely that your browsers’ settings have been changed too because you have allowed a browser hijacker to enter your computer. All browser hijackers are spread using the deceptive marketing method called bundling. In other words, these threats travel with other applications, so they are capable of hiding themselves. It does not matter now how Amisites.com has entered your system because you need to focus on the Amisites.com removal.

How can I delete Amisites.com?

There are two ways to uninstall Amisites.com. First, you can change your default search engine and homepage through the settings panel. Second, you can remove Amisites.com automatically. The latter method should be easier for those users who have never tried deleting malicious software themselves because they will only need to install reputable software on their computers and then scan their systems. A reputable tool will delete Amisites.com within seconds, but if you still decide to remove Amisites.com manually, you should try resetting all your browsers or simply changing your homepage and default search tool.
