What is Search.youronlinegamecenter.com?

If you come across a tool offering Search.youronlinegamecenter.com, you need to think twice if you should get involved with this suspicious search provider. Although it does not appear to be dangerous at first sight, it might be used to expose you to potentially unreliable links, which is the main reason why you should delete it from your browsers. At the moment, this search tool is compatible with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer browsers, but there are no guarantees that other web browsers will not be targeted by this search engine. In fact, it mostly depends on the browser extension called “Your Game Center by SaferBrowser.” Our tests conducted in the Anti-spyware-101.com internal lab have not shown any other programs linked to the search tool, and it is unlikely that it will be introduced to you on its own. If you wish to learn how to remove Search.youronlinegamecenter.com and the extension associated with it, we suggest you continue reading this report.

How does Search.youronlinegamecenter.com work?

Although Search.youronlinegamecenter.com does not provide any information about its developer, our research team assumes that it was created by Imali Media. This company is the developer of such search providers as Search.funcybertabsearch.com and Search.funsecuritytabsearch.com, and, visually, they are identical to the search tool we are now discussing. All of the clones come bundled with specific browser extensions that are introduced by Imali Media or SaferBrowser. As suggested by the tag on the home page of Search.youronlinegamecenter.com, the Your Game Center extension is associated with SaferBrowser. This extension can be downloaded from youronlinegamecenter.com, and if you acquire it via the Google Chrome browser, you will be routed to the Chrome web store download page. Before that, you will be asked to check the box indicating that you agree to have your New Tab modified. Notably, according to the information on the Chrome web store, the suspicious extension has only one user and no reviews, which means that it is not popular and, possibly, not distributed yet.

It is possible that computer users will be introduced to the Your Game Center add-on via software bundles, and it is possible that it will come bundled with malicious infections as well. Regardless of the distribution method, you can rely on two things: Search.youronlinegamecenter.com provides easy-access links to gaming websites and reroutes all your search requests to search.yahoo.com. Most users do not think twice about interacting with the links provided because they trust Yahoo Search. Well, these links might represent ads and sites that the developer of the search tool was paid to promote, and we cannot guarantee that all of these links can be trusted. Besides that, while browsing the web using Search.youronlinegamecenter.com, information about your search queries, interaction with links, and preferences will be recorded. This might seem harmless, but you must keep in mind that this information might be shared with unknown parties, and you do not how they could use it. If you are not comfortable with unknown parties tracking your virtual behavior, delete the software that enables data-tracking.
