Email Search Tools

The Email Search Tools is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that is installed as an add-on for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. The add-on introduces a button that can be clicked to access Gmail instantly – it does not appear to support other email providers. Another shady thing about the Email Search Tools is that it uses an invisible icon in the Web browser's menu, so it might be difficult to spot its presence. Overall, the Email Search Tools does not pack any valuable or irreplaceable features, and there is no reason to install it.

Another issue with the Email Search Tools is that its installation will bring a certain change to your Web browser's settings – the extension replaces your default search aggregator with Search.emailsearchtools.com. This change makes it so that all searches executed through your address bar will end up taking you to Search.emailsearchtools.com.

If you have installed this add-on recently, we suggest that you take care of its removal as soon as you can. While this action is not mandatory, it is the swiftest way to revert the changes that Email Search Tools made.
