How to remove software causing redirects to search.ansiblealgorithm.com

What kind of website is search.ansiblealgorithm.com?

Search.ansiblealgorithm.com is a website that our research team discovered while analyzing the AI Output Algo Tool. This browser extension is advertised as a tool that provides AI (Artificial Intelligence) summaries in multiple languages for search queries/results.

AI Output Algo Tool is a browser hijacker that modifies browsers to promote sites like search.ansiblealgorithm.com via redirects. This webpage could also be endorsed by other software.

How do browser hijackers promote search.ansiblealgorithm.com

In most cases, browser hijackers operate by altering browser settings (e.g., default search engine, homepage, new tab/window URLs, etc.) to promote webpages. Typically, the endorsed sites are fake search engines. Due to these modifications, whenever a user enters a search query into the URL bar or opens a new browser tab/window – they are redirected to the endorsed website.

Fake search engines are rarely capable of generating search results and redirect to legitimate Internet search websites (e.g., Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.). Unlike most, search.ansiblealgorithm.com can produce search results. However, the results provided by these types of pages may also include sponsored, unreliable, deceptive, or malicious content.

Browser-hijacking software often utilizes persistence-ensuring techniques, such as denying access to removal-related settings or undoing user-made changes – to prevent browser recovery.

Additionally, AI Output Algo Tool has data-tracking abilities, and this is standard for browser hijackers. Targeted information may include: browsing and search engine histories, Internet cookies, usernames/passwords, personally identifiable details, finance-related data, and so on. The gathered data can then be sold to third-parties or otherwise abused for profit.

In summary, the presence of software like AI Output Algo Tool on devices can lead to system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Fake search engine and browser hijacker examples

We have written about countless fake search engines and browser hijackers; newtab.art, manualssearch.com, probe-portal.com, Search with AI on Chrome, Outer Space Tab, and Wild Nature are just some of our articles.

Usually, these sites and the software promoting them appear legitimate and innocuous. Users can be lured by promises of various "handy" features, which are often fake.

It must be stressed that even if a webpage or extension/app operates exactly as indicated by its promotional material – that does not guarantee legitimacy or safety.

How did AI Output Algo Tool install on my computer?

AI Output Algo Tool has an "official" download page. Aside from such promotional webpages, browser hijackers are also endorsed on scam sites. Most visitors enter these pages via redirects caused by websites utilizing rogue advertising networks, intrusive ads, misspelled URLs, spam browser notifications, and installed adware.

Browser hijackers can be bundled with regular programs as well. The risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content into the system is increased by downloading from suspicious channels (e.g., freeware and free file-hosting websites, P2P sharing networks, etc.) and by rushing through installations (e.g., ignoring terms, using "Easy/Quick" settings, etc.).

Additionally, browser-hijacking software is proliferated by intrusive adverts. Once clicked on, some of these advertisements can execute scripts to perform downloads/installations without user consent.

How to avoid installation of browser hijackers?

We recommend researching software prior to downloading or purchasing. All downloads must be made from official and verified sources. Installations must be approached with care by studying terms and options, using the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opting out of all additional apps, extensions, tools, etc.

Another recommendation is to be careful when browsing, since the Internet is rife with well-disguised fake and malicious content. For example, despite their harmless appearance – intrusive advertisements redirect to unreliable and questionable websites (e.g., scam-promoting, adult dating, gambling, etc.).

Should you keep encountering ads/redirects of this kind, inspect the device and immediately remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins. If your computer is already infected with AI Output Algo Tool, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate this browser hijacker.
