After Guard-search.com is inside the system, it can slow down the browser speed dramatically. And you will see that the performance of your browser becomes very poor. For instance, when you are going to visit a page or a new tab, you will be redirected to Guard-search.com suddenly. And the homepage is changed to Guard-search.com as well, which cannot be restored unless this redirect virus is cleaned out of the system. Moreover, this virus can screw up your Internet activities by displaying many annoying ads on the screen while you are surfing the Internet. 

Therefore, you will be disturbed heavily. Meanwhile, when you are searching for something on the Internet with the search engine, you will be rerouted to some websites that contain many ads instead of the right information.
