Is your browser redirected to Http://proxy.allsearchapp.com/app/start/ pops up? How to remove this fake search engine that hijacked your browsers (Firefox, Google Chrome and IE) from Windows 7 or Windows 8?

Proxy.allsearchapp.com Redirect Description

The Proxy.allsearchapp.com hijacker (Proxy allsearchapp  Search Web) is an attack on the users computer that changes the settings to direct the web browser to its search engine. The Proxy.allsearchapp.com redirect is a malicious browser hijacking virus that will attack Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explore Safari, and virtually every other common browser. This is a difficult redirect thing, as the virus modifies the system settings and the registration keys, completely overtaking the browser. When you attempt to install Firefox on your computer then you inadvertently clicked on the wrong web result and began installing what be assumed was Firefox. It was not and was able to halt the install, to later find out that the homepage in Google Chrome was hijacked to something along the lines of “http://proxy.allsearchapp.com/s.php?q=%s” instead of Google. Many victims did try to run MS Security Essentials as well as  SuperAntiSpyware, Hijackthis, SpeedyPC Pro and Spyhunter 4 (paid version).  Though they each found items in the usual fashion, this “allsearch” bug is still present.

This is a very crazy virus that is preventing from scanning. It is usually contracted by clicking on infected pictures and video links, or by opening email attachments from unknown senders. A large number of users get hacked by this virus from visiting porn sites or opening so called free movies that has been embedded with the Proxy.allsearchapp.com redirect virus. The hackers know that a huge amount of people visit these types of sites daily so they put some Trojan horse, adware, keylogger behind the webpages. You might be the victim after one click on those sites. Please take care when surfing on the internet and delete the redirect thing before it made further damage to your system.
