    TheConverterSearch is a browser hijacker. TheConverterSearch browser hijacker alters the new tab, search engine, and homepage of the Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Edge web browser.

    TheConverterSearch is usually recommended on the internet as a helpful new tab or homepage by get.theconvertersearch.com.

    However, in reality, TheConverterSearch is a browser hijacker that collects all kinds of browsing data from your browser settings.

    • Read your browsing history
    • Change your search settings to: feed.theconvertersearch.com

    The web browsing data collected by the TheConverterSearch adware is used for advertising purposes. The browsing data is sold to advertising networks. Because TheConverterSearch gathers browsing data from your browser, TheConverterSearch is also classified as (PUP) Potentially Unwanted Program.

    TheConverterSearch browser extension will install itself in the Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Edge browser. No major browser developer yet notices this browser hijacker as dangerous.

    If your home page or new tab has changed to feed.TheConverterSearch.com and the TheConverterSearch browser extension has been installed, remove the TheConverterSearch extension as soon as possible using this TheConverterSearch removal instruction.
