How to uninstall (remove) Feed.protected-search.com

What is Feed.protected-search.com

Feed.protected-search.com is another browser hijacker that comes to the computer without consent. Outwardly, you look like a regular search page like Google, Yahoo and so on.

This data can be used for targeted advertising. If you find Feed.protected-search.com on your computer, then we strongly recommend that you remove it right away.
