Although Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com displays easy-access links to real gaming websites – including roblox.com, addictinggames.com, bigfishgames.com, and terraarcade.com – it is not trustworthy. If you use it as a normal search tool, you might find yourself falling victim to virtual scams. Even if that is the worst case scenario, you should not underestimate this browser hijacker. We classify it as a hijacker because it can modify your browser’s settings. What if you have enabled these changes yourself? Even so, the search tool is a hijacker because, most likely, it was introduced to you in a fraudulent manner. In fact, it is likely that you were forced to accept homepage, search provider, and new tab changes as you installed an extension. Was this extension offered to you as a tool enabling access to online games? Well, the only function of this hijacker is to introduce you to the hijacker, which is the first sign that you should not install it. If you have done this already, we advise deleting Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com.

Did you install the add-on representing Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com via a software bundle? Though you can install it from easyonlinegameaccess.com – which is the official download site – our researchers believe that most users will find it attached to third-party software. Sure, some third-party installers are harmless, and they can offer great deals. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that the “Game” extension (the name could be different) will be carried by reliable installers and that it will be packaged with reliable software. On the contrary, you are likely to find it bundled with malware. When there is a possibility that malicious infections exist, we strongly recommend running a trusted malware scanner to inspect your operating system and check for malicious invaders. Hopefully, the scanner only detects the hijacker created by Polarity Technologies Ltd, and you can focus on its removal. Speaking of the creator of this hijacker, did you know that it is also responsible for Search.watchanysports.com, Search.ourmediatabsearch.com, and other hijackers whose removal we have discussed in previous reports?

As we have determined already, Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com presents links to gaming websites. We are not worried about that. It is far more troubling that this hijacker can redirect you to Yahoo Search. Even if you are used to using this search provider, you should not trust it when redirected to it by a strange hijacker because of the sponsored links that are likely to be attached. Whoever is controlling the hijacker can easily inject sponsored links, and we cannot say whether or not they are trustworthy. The Privacy Policy representing Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com does not reveal the advertisers and other third parties that are involved. This is exceptionally disconcerting when you look at the statement suggesting that personal information can be recorded and shared with third parties. Needless to say, you should guard your virtual security, and tools capable of recording sensitive information should not be ignored. The researchers in our team agree that this is the primary reason for deleting the hijacker.

The removal guide that we have created to help you remove Search.easyonlinegameaccess.com manually reveals that you need to eliminate the extension associated with this hijacker. Luckily, that is all you need to do to get rid of this infection. In case the hijacker was installed separately from the extension, you should overwrite the homepage URL, which we are sure you know how to do. If you need instructions for that as well, please post a comment below, and we will adjust the guide immediately. There is one more removal method you should consider. As we discussed previously, other infections might be active on your computer. If you have time and desire, you can research every single threat (identify them using a trusted malware scanner) and then delete them using the guides on this website. If you are inexperienced and you do not want to waste time, employ a legitimate anti-malware tool to have all threats eliminated ASAP.
