Mobilisearch.com is a suspicious browser domain that may replace your default homepage in case you have unwanted software or extension installed on your PC. Software that promotes such browser changes is usually categorized as browser hijackers. Many homepage domains promoted by browser hijackers do not have their own search engines and eventually redirect users to legitimate engines like Ask, Yahoo, Bing, Google, and so forth. This indicates the installed extension/program does not have any value at all and is only likely to deter users' experience. For instance, those experiencing Mobilisearch.com or other dubious addresses may also be subject to facing a number of suspicious ads or forced redirects while browsing the web. The displayed content is therefore likely to be unwanted and lead to explicit or compromised pages promoting fake updates, low-quality software, or online scams. In addition, a program or extension that modified browser settings without your consent may also be able to track and gather browsing-related information, such as passwords, IP-addresses, geolocations, and other kinds of data. Note that browser hijackers and other unwanted software often make it hard to perform manual deletions of assigned changes. This is because they tend to install certain registry values that prevent traditional roll-back of changes. It is common to see a setting called "managed by your organization" in this case. Follow our guide below to remove the unwanted software/extension and restore the default settings of your browser (Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge).
