ConverterSearch

Posted: June 11, 2020

ConverterSearch is a browser add-on whose installer may tell you that you will get to use a wide array of file conversion utilities through your Web browser. However, the catch is that by installing ConverterSearch you will need to authorize the extension to apply changes to your browser's settings by replacing your default search engine with Feed.converter-search.com.

The changes that ConverterSearch brings are not a security concern, but you may find it more difficult to search the Web when you have to do so by using a non-reputable engine like the one that ConverterSearch promotes.

If your Web queries are being redirected to Feed.converter-search.com, then you should take the required steps to remove ConverterSearch from your system. The neatest way to dispose of this Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) is to use an updated PC security tool.
