How to Remove Easy Email Plus

What Is Easy Email Plus?

If your browser’s start page, homepage or new tab page have changed to Easy Email Plus (https://easyemailplus.com/homepage/homepage.html[…]) without your input, there is probably a browser hijacker installed on your computer. A browser hijacker is a piece of software (usually a program or a browser extension/add-on) that can alter homepage, default search engine and similar browser settings to redirect users to a search engine the browser hijacker promotes. In this case it’s easyemailplus.com which in turn redirects users’ searches to Yahoo. Browser hijackers are created to bring more traffic and therefore more ad revenue to specific sites. Some hijackers also keep track of users’ browsing habits and show ads based on the data they gathered. Most of the time browser hijackers end up on computers after users install free programs and don’t opt out of extra software that is offered to them. You may follow instructions below to uninstall the browser hijacker and remove Easy Email Plus from your browser.

How to Protect Your PC From Easy Email Plus and Other Browser Hijackers:

• Get a powerful anti-malware software, capable of detecting and eliminating PUPs. Having several on-demand scanners would be a good idea too.
• Keep Windows firewall enabled or get a third-party one.
• Keep your OS, browsers and security utilities updated. Malware creators find new browser and OS vulnerabilities to exploit all the time. Software writers, in turn, release patches and updates to get rid of the known vulnerabilities and lesser the chance of malware penetration. Antivirus program’s signature databases get updated every day and even more often to include new virus signatures.
• Download and use uBlock Origin, Adblock, Adblock Plus or one of the similar trustworthy extensions for blocking third-party advertisements on web-sites.
• Don’t just click on any link you see while browsing the web. That applies particularly to links in comments, on forums, or in instant messengers. Pretty often these are spam links. Sometimes they are used for increasing the traffic to websites, but often enough they will land you on pages that will try to execute a malicious code and infect your computer..
• Don’t download software from unverified web-sites. You can easily download a trojan (malware that pretends to be a useful application); or some unwanted programs could get installed along with the app.
• When installing freeware or shareware, be sensible and don’t rush through the process. Choose Custom or Advanced installation mode, look for checkboxes that ask for your permission to install third-party apps and uncheck them, read End User License Agreement to make sure nothing else is going to get installed. You can make exceptions for the apps you know and trust, of course. If declining from installing unwanted programs is not possible, we advise you to cancel the installation completely.
