Kaseek Threat Alert

If you’ve noted something not known called “Kaseek” in your browser that appears to have induced many undesired alters onto your browser, you aren’t the sole one.

This is a rogue plug-in for Google Chrome and Chromium web browsers (Edge, Opera, Brave, etc.), invented by findflarex.com. It alters the default search generator to the notorious boyu.com.tr. This is a deceptive search engine that is developed to produce profit via paid promotions for various pages (containing not safe ones) instead a little than aid you in finding what you are searching for.

Like together with other akin invaders like AISEARCHS and the absurd software direct plug-in, the obstacle is that Kaseek can’t be easily terminated, and moreover, it does not enable you to repair the standard modes of your browser.
