Hello ?,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
MyStart by Incredibar is a browser hijacker that will alter Internet browser settings on the infected computer. This threat also drops certain files and registry entries that are essential to complete its tasks.
Typically, MyStart will enter the computer through other programs or freeware that you may download from third-party provider. The adware will get installed without your consent while loading the desired program.
Once MyStart by Incredibar is installed, it will redirect your browser to mystart.Incredibar.com. A web site that offers own search mechanism similar to Google. However, this browser redirect virus will display many advertisements on target computer. It is clear that this operation intends to drive revenue for its creator through online marketing campaign. There is no other report of its harm or damages except for browser hijacking.
 
My best advice is to submit a Support Ticket free of charge to take a look at this for you because it is difficult to remove.
 
 
Hope this helps,
 
Kind Regards
