What is Ezy Photo Tab?
You might assume that Ezy Photo Tab is all about providing you with photo editing services and tools, but did you know that a big part of this potentially unwanted program (PUP) is its search service. Sadly, it is an unreliable one, and if you interact with it, there is a chance that you could end up on unreliable websites that might not even be related to your original search queries. Even if you are able to avoid the search tool, the extension itself is not useful because it does not actually offer photo editing services. At most, it provides links to third-party websites that you might be able to use for all of your photo-editing needs. Most likely, you already have decided to delete Ezy Photo Tab from your Google Chrome web browser. However, if you do not feel ready to jump into the removal yet, we suggest that you continue reading the report. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers have analyzed the PUP thoroughly, and we can provide you with interesting information.
How does Ezy Photo Tab work?
Ezy Photo Tab does not work online. You have to install it, and you might have installed it from the Chrome Web Store, at chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ezy-photo-tab/dihccdmfmcmmmoadjkleblpgfkdejeoe. If this is how the PUP got in, it is likely that no other threat exists on your operating system. That being said, if you downloaded the extension using third-party downloaders along with third-party programs, it is a must that you scan your operating system as quickly as possible. Employ a trusted malware scanner, and it will let you know if you need to remove Ezy Photo Tab along with other threats. According to our researchers, the creator of this PUP is Innover Group, and we are already familiar with this company because it created Shield My Searches. It is identified as a PUP also. Isn’t it strange that one company is creating PUPs? This only tells us what kind of attitude the company has. Ultimately, regardless of how you installed the suspicious extension, it is unreliable. At the very least, questionable.
It is not a secret that Ezy Photo Tab does not actually work in a beneficial way. Even the description on the Chrome Web Store informs that the extension only provides links to websites that can give you access to a photo editor, a background remover, a collage maker, a logo maker, and a video editor. When we analyzed the PUP, it changed the New Tab page to ezyphototab.com/newtab/v1/fmdskk.html?, and the easy-access links at the top routed to befunky.com, clippingmagic.com, kapwing.com/collage, logomakr.com, and other websites alike. While these links are legitimate and route to the websites you expect to be routed to, the PUP does not offer any original photo/video-editing services, and that is why it is considered to be useless. Not only that. According to our researchers, it is also unreliable. First of all, it tracks your virtual activity with the help of tracking cookies. Second, it redirects the searches you conduct via the PUP’s search engine to Yahoo Search. Unfortunately, the results are modified, and so trusting them as normal search results is impossible. After all, we do not know who could advertise their products or services using Ezy Photo Tab.
