What is Easy File Converter?
No matter you download Easy File Converter from the Chrome Web Store or its official website, you will find your Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome settings altered in any case. To be more specific, you will find a new page set on all these web browsers. The page set looks like an ordinary search provider, but you should not trust it blindly because it has been observed that it might provide users with the modified search results that might redirect straight to untrustworthy websites. Since there are so many trustworthy search tools available, it would be a sin to perform web searches using the search tool set by Easy File Converter. It must also be deleted ASAP if you have found your browsers’ settings changed without your permission. You should not find the removal of this potentially unwanted program a challenging task because it can be erased via the Add-ons Manager like a normal application. Of course, we will still not leave you on your own – you can find the manual removal guide prepared by specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com below this report.
What does Easy File Converter do?
Easy File Converter is presented as extremely useful software that enables users to convert their files quickly to PDF and DOC formats. It should be emphasized that it is not a file converter itself. Instead, it sets a page containing quick-access links that open online file conversion services available at third-party websites. Researchers have observed that Easy File Converter might set one of three pages on users’ web browsers: http://search.searchfefc3.com, http://search.searchfefc2.com, or http://search.searchfefc.com. As mentioned, the page set contains quick-access buttons. On top of that, you will find a search box in its middle. Unfortunately, it does not mean that the page set is a trustworthy search tool you can fearlessly use to find the information on the web. We highly recommend that you replace it with another fully reliable search provider ASAP. If you use it as your default search tool, it will show some modified search results. Recognizing them is not something very easy, so we are sure you will sooner or later click on these modified search results. They are not considered malicious, but clicking on them is still a bad idea because they might redirect you to dubious pages. What else you should know about this search tool is that it will collect your search queries, URLs you visit, and some technical details, so make sure you do not type any personal details in its search box.
Where does Easy File Converter come from?
It is very likely that you see your browsers’ settings altered because you have installed Easy File Converter yourself from https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/easy-file-converter/docbdkefdologaagieallljeedjpdlfk or http://easyfileconverter.com/. Users who install this piece of software on their computers consciously expect that it will enable them to convert files easily, but they get altered browsers’ settings instead. Yes, the page set contains quick-access buttons that allow users to access file converters quickly, but they can be accessed without its help too, which leaves Easy File Converter quite useless. Alternatively, users might install Easy File Converter together with other applications because the chances are high that it travels bundled as well. It is not the first product developed by Polarity Technologies Ltd., which means that you might find your browsers’ settings changed without your knowledge again. Of course, it does not mean that you cannot prevent unauthorized changes from being applied to your browsers. You will be safe if you install a reputable antimalware tool on your computer, so go to acquire security software the second you remove Easy File Converter.
How to delete Easy File Converter
Easy File Converter affects all web browsers it finds on users’ computers, but we are sure you will not find its removal very complicated because you will erase it from Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome via the Add-ons Manager. As for Internet Explorer, changes applied to it could be undone by deleting the Easy File Converter extension using Control Panel. Users can also remove all untrustworthy applications from their computers automatically. The latter method should be adopted by less experienced users because their only job will be to perform a full system scan with the acquired automated malware remover in this case. To be more specific, they will only need to launch the scanner after installing it.
