ConnectionIndexer

Posted: August 6, 2020

ConnectionIndexer is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that Mac users may need to deal with if they are not careful with the files they download from the Internet. This PUP is not a security threat, but it may modify your system and browser settings negatively. One of the changes linked to ConnectionIndexer's installation is having your Web searches redirected to Safe Finder, 0yrvtrh.com or Search.dominantmethod.com.' While this is not a major issue, it may hinder the quality of the search results you see, therefore preventing you from finding relevant content.

ConnectionIndexer may be delivered to your Mac via a fake software installer/updater. According to reports from users who have had to deal with ConnectionIndexer, it might be delivered via a fake Adobe Flash Player update.

Trying to uninstall the ConnectionIndexer PUP manually might not be possible since some of its components appear to try and persist even after the user tries to remove them. It is recommended to dispose of this software by using an updated Mac security tool.
