Search.myradioxp.com

This is not the first time we are discussing Search.myradioxp.com. Although the name of this browser hijacker is original, there are many other hijackers that are identical to it, including Search.mydailyversexp.com, Search.mycurrentnewsxp.com, and Search.yourspeedtestnow.com. All of these suspicious search tools are associated with extensions that are identical to one another as well. The extension bundled with this hijacker is called My Radio XP by SaferBrowser, and users can acquire it from myradioxp.com. This extension supposedly provides easy access to Salem Radio, Soundcloud, Spotify, Pandora, iHeart, and hundreds of other radio stations that you allegedly can listen to for free. Many users download this program without fully researching it, and it is not surprising that many miss the disclaimer posted right below the Install button. This disclaimer warns that your homepage, new tab page, and default search provider will be changed to myradioxp.com. Of course, instead, you will have to remove Search.myradioxp.com.

The My Radio XP extension for Chrome is offered at chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/my-social-hub-xp/ijinnpmmaakgiepakhpjdbmmlnapkpmp?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog, as well as the official download page. According to the information provided on the Chrome web store page dedicated to this extension, it has 16,000 users, and all of its reviews are positive. If you choose to download this add-on, you will be informed how it can act on your browsers. For example, it is stated that your browsing history could be recorded and modified. Of course, the cookies installed will track your virtual activity, but what’s the deal with the modifications? It is also strange that Search.myradioxp.com-related extension can manage downloads and your applications. We believe these permissions are aggressive, and this is the first reason to remove this hijacker from your browsers and operating system. What is more, if you do not delete Search.myradioxp.com from your operating system, it will collect personally identifiable information!

My Radio XP is installed as an extension on all browsers. In Chrome it is found in the chrome://extensions/ menu. If you go into Developer mode (check the box at the top of the menu), you will discover that the ID of this extension is ijinnpmmaakgiepakhpjdbmmlnapkpmp. You can search for this ID on your computer, and you will find the folder representing the extension’s files (at C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions). The Firefox extension file, radio@jetpack.xpi, can be found under C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[*]\Extensions. If you delete My Radio XP directly from the browsers, you will have Search.myradioxp.com removed simultaneously. However, if you remove files from within these folders, you are likely to have to deal with leftovers. Note that if you have installed the extension on IE, you will have to uninstall a program via Control Panel to delete the hijacker.
