Hello, something happened with my computer this weekend (I am sure my kids were using it again), and now every web browser opens Search.searchtcn.com page instead of Google, like they used to do before. Is there a way to fix everything and remove Search.searchtcn.com? I can’t find a way to do it.
Thanks.

It seems that your children installed a software bundle without realizing it, or accidentally agreed to add a Tube World extension to web browser. You shouldn't be scared, because the program that keeps Search.searchtcn.com in your browsers is not considered to be malicious. It falls into potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) list, however, it does not do anything illegal on users computer and therefore its activity is considered to be legitimate.
Despite that, users usually search for its removal instructions right after installing it on their systems. It has been noticed that this search engine provides quite many ads within results' pages, which doesn't please users. To learn more about the activity of this hijacker, we highly recommend you to read a full article in this post, in which you will also find a tutorial on how to remove Search.searchtcn redirect virus from affected browsers: Search.searchtcn.com virus.
