What is InfoMajorSearch?

InfoMajorSearch is a potentially unwated application that is distributed under the guise of an Adobe Flash Player installer claiming that yours is outdated. Thus, you should always ignore any updates from unofficial websites. If you still failed to do this, then adware will infiltrate your system instead of Adobe Flash Player. Following infiltration, it makes adjustments to the browser configuration so that you will get countless advertisements each time you surf the Internet. This activity is not only annoying because it prevents browsing, but also harmful since such ads may lead you to malware-laden websites. Thus, you might pick up more malware while InfoMajorSearch is on your device. In that regard, we have prepared this step-by-step guide that will help you eliminate all traces of InfoMajorSearch adware.
