Deceiving domain - Searchpowerapp.com

Searchpowerapp.com is a search engine that shows various links to popular social media sites and other platforms, so it looks related to useful services. This is not a reliable search provider because, in most cases, those online search attempts get interfered with by delivering commercial content, injecting ads instead of real results of the items people search. 

The main goal of this potentially unwanted program is to redirect the traffic to various other sites, the developer's page. Even though this is a browser hijacker it affects other parts of the system, settings that rely on launching the application every time the user reboots their computer. Also, Searchpowerapp.com can install extensions, add-ons or tools without your permission to affect even more processes on the system and make it run slower. 

Redirects that the site causes go to commercial pages, advertising services and can expose to possibly malicious material. There is no need to keep visiting this page if you encounter unwanted behavior and redirects to suspicious sites. Although the site looks safe, continuous visits on advertising pages can interfere with the speed of your PC significantly.
