PDFConverterSearchTool

PDFConverterSearchTool is a Web browser add-on whose installer may promise you access to useful document conversion tools. However, instead of introducing valuable features, the PDFConverterSearchTool add-on will make unwanted changes to your browser's configuration. It sets the new tab page to Portal.pdfconvertersearchtool.com, while it replaces the default search engine with Feed.pdfconvertersearchtool.com. These search engines work in an identical manner, and they redirect users to Yahoo Search. While this is not unreliable behavior, there is no guarantee that the functionality of the sites will not be altered soon. It is best to avoid using low-quality search engines and to stick to using reputable search services like Google, Bing or Yahoo.

PDFConverterSearchTool is categorized as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP.) This software is known to bring undesired and intrusive changes to Web browsers, and this is why it is best to stay away from it. If you suspect that PDFConverterSearchTool has tampered with your browser settings, you need to use a computer security scanner to identify and remove the PUP's files. Once PDFConverterSearchTool is gone, your browser settings should be back to normal automatically.
