What is Iyfsearch.com?

Iyfsearch is a malicious program that is distributed throughout 2019 in different countries. Iyfsearch.com hits thousands of computers and become more and more annoying. It’s because of the virus behavior: it starts to redirect users web-browser to a different advertisement instead of sites, that user wants to visit. You may notice, that browser shows the following address on browser search bar:

http://iyfsearch.com/?pid=9PO4402G4&rpid=1PO1HL31Q

Moreover, every advertisement potentially has links with malicious code, that called macros. Macros, in turn, can damage your operating system (OS). Our recommendation: remove Iyfsearch as soon as possible.
