Searchit Hijacker

Removing Searchit
Categories: Hijacker,Toolbar
When the default home page is hijacked, the browser opens to the web page set by the hijacker
instead of the user's designated home page. In some cases, the hijacker may block users from
restoring their desired home page.
Toolbar presents itself as a helpful add-on for Internet Explorer but it is a real pest.
