Websearch.good-results.info is a low quality search engine. Websearch.good-results.info uses a simple layout with a search box over a white background. Below the search box one can usually find a sponsored advertisement. The site shows poorly regulated advertisements, such as advertisements for 'make money from home' services that involve filling out surveys and that are actually well known scams. It is important to point out that searches carried out using Websearch.good-results.info will usually result in a list of sponsored links and irrelevant search results that are actually paid for by advertisers. This in itself would not be much of a problem if it weren't for the tactics being used to direct computer users to the Websearch.good-results.info website. Various computer users have complained of browser redirects forcing them to visit Websearch.good-results.info against their will. These are usually caused by a browser hijacker infection, a malware infection that should be disabled right away with the collaboration of a strong anti-malware program.

ESG security researchers have observed a marked increase in these kinds of scams in recent years. There are various symptoms associated with malware used to redirect computer users to the Websearch.good-results.info website. If your machine is showing any symptoms from the list compiled below, ESG malware researchers strongly recommend the use of a strong anti-malware program to ensure that a browser hijacker has not infected your computer:
