VisualBee Search, found at the address visualbee.delta-search.com, is a browser hijacker. At first glance, VisualBee is a slideshow creator software, however its developers as it is the case with many other freeware, change some parameters of your browser’s configuration (clearly without asking for your permission first) such as your homepage, error page and the default search engine.
After doing a little research, we found out that VisualBee is nothing but a new version of Delta Search, one of the first browser hijackers that saw the light infecting thousands of users around the world.
This search engine can not be trusted at all. Even though is based on some of the most popular search engines like Bing or Google it will also take the time to modify the results presented by those engines in such a way that the first positions are taken by sponsored links and/or ads. This is made with nothing in mind but their own wallets. Every time you click one of those links they get a commission in return. This detail of course explains why it is so difficult to uninstall it, they have no interest on you getting rid of it.
Our advice remains the same when facing this kind of issues, be careful with anything you download from the internet. If you have a bad feeling about something, make sure to check that their official website is secure and known; plus, never forget to customize any install process started in your computer.
You should know that the page VisualBee Search is considered as a malware by Fortinet.
