Digital Coin Tracker

Posted: February 21, 2018

The Digital Coin Tracker by Polarity Technologies LTD is a browser add-on, which is likely to attract the attention of the people interested in cryptocurrencies. It claims to provide them with a neat set of utilities that will give them the ability to track the price changes of various cryptocurrencies quickly. While this might sound useful, we assure you that there are much better alternatives, which will not bring annoying changes like the ones that the Digital Coin Tracker is known for.

Users who opt to install this particular add-on will only be able to do so if they allow it to replace their Chrome New Tab with search.hdigitalcointracker.net. While this change is not harmful, it is understandable why the majority of users will not be happy with. This page features links to popular cryptocurrency exchanges and information websites, as well as a search field that uses the Yahoo Search to display results.

Just like most of Polarity Technologies' products, the Digital Coin Tracker also has been added as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) to the databases of many anti-virus product vendors. The removal of this extension is not mandatory, but it is the recommended course of action if you do not wish to use dubious browser add-ons, which tamper with your settings.
