Alakazee.com

Alakazee.com is a search provider that appears to showcase original search results, but our malware analysts have found that, in reality, it employs the Yahoo Search engine. Needless to say, it is far better to interact with a well-known and trusted search provider, rather than an unfamiliar browser hijacker that might have corrupted your browsers in an aggressive manner. It was found that this hijacker is hosted on the same server as the infamous iadah.co.uk, and so we advise staying away from all other websites that might be hosted on this server as, clearly, it is supporting potentially unreliable websites. According to our research, you should be able to remove Alakazee.com by changing the URL of your homepage, and that is not difficult to do. If you need our help deleting this hijacker, you will use the guide below, but you should also read the entire report.

There is no doubt that Alakazee.com is targeted at those users who speak French because all text is in displayed in French. The interface of this search tool is truly modern, and it looks much more professional than most other hijackers. Of course, this might make some users trust this hijacker for no good reason at all. The home page of Alakazee.com displays easy-access links to Google+, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Also, we have links that route to pages where you can find News-related stories, quizzes, games, and music. The five search tools that the users are offered are meant to make the web browsing experience more enjoyable, and it succeeds at that. The first box is meant to help you search the web, and we also have a search dialog box that automatically searches for images based on your keywords. Besides that, we have a YouTube search engine – which works fine – and a search tool that redirects to leboncoin.fr. Obviously, Development Media 73 (the creator) has done a good job.

Are you sure you can trust the search results represented by Alakazee.com? As mentioned previously, this hijacker employs Yahoo Search to deliver search results, which means that the results are not original. As a matter of fact, there is a great possibility that the popular search engine is exploited to showcase search results along with sponsored links. Is it safe to interact with the links that are displayed by unknown parties? Of course, this could be dangerous, which is why you need to be cautious. You also need to be cautious about the activity of third-party malware. We do not claim that malware runs along with the hijacker, but the chances of this happening are very high if Alakazee.com enters your browsers via a software bundle. Some bundles are harmless, but others are dangerous as they contain all kinds of malicious threats. Are you 100% sure that malware was not installed along with the hijacker? If you want to be sure, you have to inspect your operating system with a legitimate malware scanner. In case a scanner discovers threats, please research them individually if you decide to delete them manually.

So, is Alakazee.com dangerous? That depends on how you use this search engine. If you interact with the search results shown via it, you might open up security backdoors. Also, data-tracking tools could continuously collect information about you. In general, the hijacker is a piece of software that we advise removing, but it is not the most malicious threat you will ever encounter. In fact, this kind of threat could already be active on your operating system, and that depends on the installer that you used for the installation of the hijacker. As you already know, we advise using a malware scanner to inspect your operating system and see if malware exists.
