How to uninstall DeluxSearch?

Essentially Deluxsearch is a fake search engine which tries to convince the user it is a useful application that will improve the browsing experience. But instead, it misguides the user or takes over the preferred browser. After Deluxsearch is installed on your PC, Home.deluxsearch.com becomes your homepage by default, so there are zero chances that won’t notice that something is wrong.  If you have found out that Deluxsearch is installed on your computer, we recommend deleting it as this program has all attributes of an ad-supported software. So basically it is adware in disguise.

As you see, Deluxsearch is nothing but a browser hijacker that is somewhat reminiscent of infamous Grand Burst virus. Both these fake search engines look almost identical; they have links to social networks, shopping, and entertainment sites, etc. However, Deluxsearch has an official website in order to promote this program, but you cannot download the software from it even if you want to. In most cases inattentive users let Deluxsearch to be installed on their machines even without realizing it, as an optional application.

According to our research, this fake search engine is not gathering any of your personally-identifiable information (unless you provide that informational to application’s creators). Although nothing threatens your privacy, you should note that while using this extension other – non-personally identifiable – information is still gathered. Deluxsearch keeps track of the websites you visit, saves search terms, knows your IP, browser, and computer type. It is still unclear if other any other information is recorded via this extension. In order to keep your PC safe from annoying adware like Deluxsearch we suggest using one of the trusted anti-malware tools.

Before we proceed with the uninstall guide, we will try to explain how Deluxsearch infiltrates the system. All browser hijackers use one similar pattern to get on the computer without user’s consent. The malicious software comes in one installation bundled with free programs or applications (e.g. music converters, video players, suspicious download managers, etc.). The easiest way to avoid problems with hijackers like Deluxsearch is to read what you install and uncheck suspicious boxes during the installation. But if the virus has already infected your PC, then follow our instructions written below.
