![]() As long as you don’t have a hijacked browser then its fairly easy to change your default search provider back to Google or whichever search engine you prefer. Even worse, if you install a piece of adware or spyware that comes with a game for example you may get a no name search provider that you never heard of like Conduit Search which is a known piece of malware. They get a tiny little cut of profit for each person they can convert to that search provider. They do this because they make partner agreements with search providers such as Bing, Yahoo, AOL and of course Google. Occasionally, you will install a third party piece of software that will change your default search provider to something else which you DO NOT want to use. This means if you use the search bar in your browser to look for anything it will default to the search engine that you set. If you are using one of the three most popular web browsers on the planet which are Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome then you can set your default search provider to your favorite search engine and forget about it. Many people have been using Google as their default search provider in their browser as far back as they can remember.
