View Free Recipes Now

What is View Free Recipes Now?

Do you want to have access to thousands of recipes directly via your browser? If you do, you might think that View Free Recipes Now is the extension of your dreams. Well, we doubt that it is. If you end up installing it onto your web browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Firefox), you get easy-access links to totalrecipesnetwork.com, foodnetwork.co.uk, yummly.com, and epicurious.com. While these websites are legitimate, trustworthy, and can offer you plenty of recipes, you do not need an add-on to access them. Go to the website and click the star icon in or next to the URL field to bookmark it. Make sure that the Bookmarks toolbar/bar is activated, and that way, you will have access to all of these sites from your browser. If you do that, the extension becomes absolutely useless, and that is not the only reason to delete it. In fact, the Anti-Spyware-101.com research team recommends removing View Free Recipes Now due to security issues that appear to be associated with this PUP (potentially unwanted program). If you are ready to eliminate it, a guide can be found below. If you need more info, continue reading.

How does View Free Recipes Now work?

View Free Recipes Now is part of the Eightpoint Technologies Ltd. family, along with Find A Flight Pro, Breaking News Plus, Watch Movies Live, and a bunch of other questionable extensions. The PUP has a unique download website – viewfreerecipesnow.com – and Chrome users can download it from the web store at chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/view-free-recipes-now/ekebjbhdnoogmbobmggaaedhggdcidmd. It is suggested that the extension can offer access to recipe websites, news services, weather reports, and shopping sites. If you only pay attention to this description, you might assume that View Free Recipes Now is pretty great. Well, it is not. Once you install it, search.viewfreerecipesnowtab.com takes over the New Tab and/or the homepage (depending on the browser), which is why some remove it as a browser hijacker. At the top, you are introduced to the recipe-related websites that we mentioned already. In the center of the page, you are presented with links to amazon.com, booking.com, myemailsimplified.com, and several other websites, but it looks that the main attraction is the search dialog box. Well, if you enter keywords into it, you are redirected to Yahoo Search, and this is one of the biggest reasons to delete the PUP.

Have you realized already that when View Free Recipes Now redirects searches to Yahoo Search it shows modified search results? It is unlikely that you have, and you might have interacted with sponsored links already. We do not suggest that 100% of all links injected by the PUP are malicious, but you have to keep in mind that the creator of View Free Recipes Now works with advertisers who are undisclosed. Since we cannot know whose ads might be shown, we cannot guarantee that they would be harmless. In the worst-case situation, you could be exposed to scams and even other PUPs or malware. To make sure that the results shown to you are not completely random, the PUP tracks your activity and analyzes your browsing history. Unfortunately, this information is shared with unknown third parties also, and that is another big reason why people choose to delete this potentially unwanted program. All in all, there seem to be not many advantages to using the extension, but there are plenty of disadvantages, and so we suggest taking action now.
