Search.searchlen.com (Login Email Now) virus - How to remove

Login Email Now browser extension is provided by the SaferBrowser factory of potentially unwanted programs (PUP). Over considering a short amount of time, SearchBrowser enterprise pushed a lot of browser hijackers into the world. Email Helper App, Email Easy Access, Email Assistant, and Quick Email Login can act as brother-figures to Search.searchlen.com.

Like with other Eightpoint browser extensions, this one is completely unnecessary, easily replaced with a few browser bookmarks. However, in the middle of the search.searchlen.com page, there is a search bar that opens search.yahoo.com. This is the heart of the Login Email Now hijacker, which makes money from redirecting your search queries through an affiliate link and getting ad revenue. Without the search redirecting, these browser viruses would not exist.

Login Email Now preys on people who aren’t familiar with browser extensions and who don’t easily recognize which problems are caused by browser hijackers. The creators of searchlen.com use misleading installation to infect computers with this virus and then hope that users will allow the add-on to continue hijacking their browser.

This doesn’t have to continue. In most cases, hijackers like search.searchlen.com are very easy to uninstall. It’s concerning how it ended up in your browser in the first place – for example, if it was downloaded by another infection, that means you need to clean your computer from malware. But other than that, Login Email Now is not very dangerous. Predatory, dishonest, scammy – but not exactly dangerous.

About Search.searchlen.com virus

Login Email Now is a very direct name to describe the specialization for this extension. Simply put, it allows users to enter their email accounts more conveniently anytime they open up a new tab in their browser. It does this by hijacking your new tab page (which is totally unnecessary and a very inelegant way for Login Email Now to manage this function).

What Login Email Now does wrong is more than one thing:

• Take over browser settings which are not relevant to its functionality: it replaces the New Tab page and the search engine.
• Besides that, Login Email Now also wants to know your browsing history and the other installed extensions.
• On some browsers, this browser virus tries to install a couple of other extensions, such as Search Encrypt and ProPDFConverter.

Because of these objectionable actions, security researches agree to call this program a browser hijacker. It does not surpass your expectations; it is more likely to disappoint. Why? The search results by Search.searchlen.com browser hijacker follow a detrimental pattern of firstly showing webpages from third-party sources – ads. The Yahoo search engine, which is used by Login Email Now to monetize your search queries, is notoriously full of ads.

Search.searchlen.com browser hijacker spreads its hands into other places too. Records of your daily online habits, regarded as non-personal information, will be used to sew the last buttons into promotions. Ads that are shown with your personality in mind are more likely to be effective.

Distribution Methods of Search.searchlen.com virus

Login Email Now browser hijacker spreads thanks to bad-quality ads and misleading installation pages. Like Email Anytime, it has a website that looks like a universal site to log in to email accounts. However, not only can you expose your email address to unfriendly parties if you use that page, but you will also be recommended to install the Login Email Now extension. This is clearly  misleading installation that will result in some people installing this add-on without wanting to. This sort of thing has resulted in a lot of Eightpoint’s extensions getting banned from the Chrome Web Store.

Another way for unwanted programs like Login Email Now to spread is through offers of free programs. Free programs might be downloaded from the internet and have unwanted offers like browser hijackers attached to their installers. The list of these potentially unwanted programs can be seen only while performing installation by accessing advanced settings and reading every line in the setup wizard. The optional offers are installed by default, so if you want to avoid dealing with them, stop them during setup.

Luckily, your browser can be set free with the help of some manual removal efforts and powerful anti-malware scanners. The efficiency and reliability of Spyhunter (Windows), Combo Cleaner (Mac OS), or Malwarebytes cannot be understated. To vanish Search.searchlen.com browser hijacker from your system, you can be guided by our detailed manual removal.
