OnlineToolSearch
OnlineToolSearch is a misleading Mac program that may be brought to your device via software bundles, fake downloads or misleading advertisements. According to its name, OnlineToolSearch is meant to be a search-enhancing utility, but it is questionable whether the changes it brings are helpful or not – when OnlineToolSearch is installed, it will replace your browser's default search engine with a page called 'OnlineToolSearch Search.' This change is not harmful, but you can rest assured that the search results you will start to see will not be as reliable as the ones supplied by Google, Bing, Yahoo or other reputable search aggregators.
Being borderline useless is not the only issue about OnlineToolSearch – this software is detected as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by reputable Mac security scanners. PUPs are not unsafe, but their installation may often bring undesired changes to the way your system or Web browser works. As mentioned earlier, OnlineToolSearch is known to affect your Web browser's functionality in a negative manner.
If your searches are being redirected to 'OnlineToolSearch Search' without your approval, then we suggest that you scan your Mac for the presence of PUPs.
