Search.ominent.com

Search.ominent.com is the address of the search result page which appears on the browsers when Ominent toolbar is installed. The search engine or the toolbar may be regarded as a browser hijacker because the user is not provided with information about the changes that will be made on the browsers. Ominent toolbar is published by Montiera Technology LTD and can be bundled with various applications. You may find it attached to the FunMoods apps and Tuvaro toolbar.

Once installed, the toolbar can access all data on your computer and the websites that you visit. The official website of the toolbar is ominent.com, which looks incomplete and use Blekko.com search engine. We recommend that you remove search.ominent.com from the browsers, because it returns search hits that also contains some sponsored links. All those links that are presented as advertisements are displayed to increase the number of clicks and earn bigger revenues. Some of them may have no relation to your search query and take you to insecure websites.

Another reason why you should remove search.iminent.com from the browsers is the fact that the toolbar can access your personal information. It may read your browsing history, record your search terms, and monitor what items you click on and how much time you spend on different websites. Such information is usually used for marketing purposes, in order to create target advertisements, but keep in mind that some pieces of information may help Ominent reveal your identity.

If you do not like the fact that the search results are provided by search.ominent.com, do not wait any longer but eliminate the unwanted application from the PC. Since the toolbar can be bundled with various free programs, bear in mind that every free browser add-on or extension can be distributed in this way, which means that you should always read the terms of use when installing a program.

Ominent toolbar contains only a few links to well-known social networking websites, which you can easily access through your bookmarks toolbar, so do not hesitate to remove it from the browsers. Note that if you uninstall the toolbar, some changes may be necessary on the browsers, and the following instructions may help you to make them. However, after you remove the toolbar you want to be sure that no similar situation will occur in the future, so instead of wasting your time trying to eliminate the toolbar, install SpyHunter. It will fix the browsers and provide the system with the ultimate protection. Not only will you save your time but you will be also protected from various computer threats, including browser hijacker, adware programs, Trojan horses, and the like.
