How does Mysites123.com work?

The interface of the suspicious Mysites123.com is comparable to the interfaces of luckysearches.com and luckybeginning.com, both of which are often identified as hijackers as well. We have also found that this search engine belongs to the family of such infamous hijackers as Qone8.com and Sweet-Page.com. These search tools do not actually provide search results, which is quite strange and should make you suspicious. We have found that these search tools redirect to Yahoo, and most users are familiar with this search provider. The problem is that the search results are likely to be modified. We cannot guarantee that the search results shown to you can be trusted, which is one of the few reasons to eliminate this search provider.

Mysites123.com not only shows suspicious search results using the familiar Yahoo provider but also installs browser extensions. Quick Start, FastStart, or SupTab are the extensions you are likely to find, depending on the browser you use. These extensions are separate applications, and you have to remove them individually. We show how to do that in the guide below. Other third-party programs are likely to be active on your PC as well, considering that this suspicious search tool travels bundled with all kinds of strange applications. Unfortunately, some of them might be malicious. If you are not sure if malicious programs have been installed, you can easily figure that out with the help of a trusted malware scanner. This is particularly important if you find that your browsers are hijacked without your permission.

How to delete Mysites123.com

There is an entry called “mysites123 uninstall” in the Control Panel. If you uninstall it, you will be able to remove Mysites123.com without any obstacles. If you try to change the homepage and search provider settings first, you will find that the unwanted search tools regenerate. This is due to the Target that is changed by this search tool and is restored if you uninstall the unwanted program. Afterward, you have to replace the unwanted search tools, and you can refer to the guide below also. Although the removal of this strange search tool is quite easy, we fear that other programs installed along with it might be more malicious, and it is smart to use security software to inspect them and, if needed, get rid of them automatically.
