What is Mylucky123.com?

Mylucky123.com is not a reliable search provider. It seems that it only tries to echo the appearance of a legitimate search engine. As it might seem quite trustworthy at first glance, many users decide to let it stay on their browsers even though they feel that Mylucky123.com has been set without permission. Fortunately, unlike other questionable search engines, this search tool will set itself as your homepage only if it ever enters your computer. Of course, it also means that you will see it every time you launch your browser; however, it will be easier to remove it if you decide to get rid of it after reading this report.test

What does Mylucky123.com do?

Let us explain to you how Mylucky123.com acts and why it would be better to replace it with a reputable search engine. First of all, researchers who have tested this search tool have noticed that it displays advertisements on the search results page. Ordinary users might not even notice these ads because they have the appearance of reliable search results. According to specialists, such search results are shown for users on purpose. The developer of Mylucky123.com has left them there for users to promote third-party websites. If a user clicks on such an advertisement, he/she is immediately taken to a third-party website. The more redirections to these websites, the higher is the traffic rate. The developer of Mylucky123.com might get some money from advertising these pages too, but, of course, it will not share its income with you. To be frank, users can only allow undesirable software to enter their computers if they decide to keep Mylucky123.com set on their browsers. This might happen because unreliable web pages might be promoted as well, and you might be taken to them quickly. If you use this search engine, your privacy might be violated as well because you might be taken to a website collecting personal information. The Mylucky123.com search engine itself gathers information about users’ activities on the web as well; however, it declares in its Privacy Policy document that it is interested in the non-personally identifiable information only.

If the Mylucky123.com browser hijacker ever enters your computer without permission, it will also apply several changes to be able to alter the settings of Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox. First of all, you will notice that the Start Page value which is located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main is modified. Secondly, this browser hijacker will modify the prefs.js file that contains information about preferences to set itself on Mozilla Firefox. Finally, it will change Secure Preferences, Web Data, and Preferences files that belong to a popular browser Google Chrome. These changes can be undone only by deleting the Mylucky123.com browser hijacker fully from the system. Therefore, we suggest erasing it as soon as possible.
