In searching google I entered it as sharksearchonline without the AA to be able to find anything at all on it. Check your Edge extensions. Is there any installed that might be suspect.

@flashh4 There's so little mention of it I think it may be a browser hijacker under the umbrella of some browser extension or installed app. I found this site which is highly suspect in it's complete lack of info. SharkPdf

I have used Malwarebytes Premium and System Mechanic Pro for years. I have run both once again, and neither one picks up this invader.

What else can I do?

Not sure what my Dad did, but i found 2 things installed, so check your recently installed programs and unistall the shark.pdf and there was a 2nd one also named shark something, sorry didn't write it down
Also the default search engine browser was set to this aasharksearchonline, so switch that back to bing/chrome whatever you actually want to use
