About Easytemplatefindertab.com new tab
What is Easytemplatefindertab.com and what does it do?
Easytemplatefindertab.com is a website that looks like a new tab page:
- it has a search box for searching the internet,
- it has quick links to, supposedly, useful links,
- there’s a kind of a toolbar at the top of the page with more quick links similar to a list of bookmarks.
Easytemplatefindertab.com looks like it’s meant to serve as the hub on a web browser: the site you see when you are starting a browsing session. It works on its developers’ terms. The search box in the middle of Easytemplatefindertab.com opens Yahoo.com. The email, news, weather, and video quick links that Easytemplatefindertab.com features lead to affiliated sites that are chock-full of clickbait ads (some of which lead to scams).
Indeed, Easytemplatefindertab.com gets set as the new tab page in the browsers that got infected with Easy Template Finder – a browser add-on. Whenever you open a new tab in your browser (by pressing Ctrl+T (Windows) or Cmd+T (macOS), or by clicking the plus ‘+’ button in the top row of your browser), the new tab page opens. Easy Template Finder makes sure that Easytemplatefindertab.com is loaded. If you had customized your new tab by adding a background image that you like, pinning important links to it, or setting it to be a particular website, Easytemplatefindertab.com disregards that.
And, of course, Easytemplatefindertab.com tries to get you to accept its notifications and then uses them to promote browser hijackers, junkware, and other shady content.
Is Easy Template Finder useful?
Well, Easytemplatefindertab.com has links to template sites Template.net, Education.com, Vertex42.com, Supercoloring.com, Avery.com, and Canva.com. These are not the clickbait sites that I mentioned earlier, these are legitimate sites that let you download templates. Some of them are free, some offer paid premium tiers. These links are the entirety of Easy Template Finder’s functionality. The Easy Template Finder add-on is offered and advertised online as helping you access online templates from your new tab page.
It just happens to also offer web search that can’t be customized and helpful links to sites filled with scammy ads.
How to remove Easytemplatefindertab.com
If you installed Easy Template Finder on your own, you would know exactly what happened, why Easytemplatefindertab.com took ver your new tab, and how to remove it. Just find Easy Template Finder in your extensions and remove it.
But not everyone is lucky enough to install Easytemplatefindertab.com manually. Browser add-ons like Easy Template Finder get promoted by adware infections, dubious search engines like Searchencrypt.com, and bundled with other programs.
When an add-on is bundled, you are likely to not even notice how it gets installed. Dishonest developers often take advantage of dark patterns – they trick you to install stuff that you do not know or want. And Easy Template Finder doesn’t come alone – it arrives with Encrypted Search, Search Tab, and other add-ons.
You could use an anti-malware program, like Spyhunter for Windows, Combo Cleaner for macOS, and others, to check all of your apps and add-ons. You can also check them manually:
- examine the installed browser add-ons for suspicious permissions:
- replacing the new tab page,
- changing the default search engine,
- and accessing the sites that you visit,
- check the programs that were installed around the same time as Easytemplatefindertab.com showed up.
If unwanted pop-ups from Easytemplatefindertab.com (or other sites) show up on your screen, check this article on how you can block web push notifications. It’s just a setting in the browser.
Remember that software updates are important for security. Be careful with ads that try to trick you or push you to download something. And be careful about where you download software from.
