Video Search Tools Plus Removal Guide

We have recently stumbled upon a recently released program called Video Search Tools Plus. It is not the most reliable program so we suggest that you remove it after reading this short article. Video Search Tools Plus is not malicious and does not pose a threat to your computer’s security. However, the third-party website that is integrated in this program is unreliable, and we are going to talk about it a bit more in greater detail. The function proclaimed on this program’s website is not that impressive and we find it silly and useless.

Video Search Tools Plus’s website at Videosearchtoolsplus.com claims that this extension (which is only supported by Google Chrome) will offer you a convenient way to get video search results for anything you search for. As mentioned, this extension is integrated with a search engine. This search engine is called Plusnetwork.com. However, Video Search Tools Plus’s customized search only works on Google.com. It is very odd that this program is not compatible with the search engine that automatically changes the startup page, home page, new tab, and default search after its installation. So we can say that this program is a massive fail from the functionalist point of view.

Video Search Tools Plus’s integrated search engine is the main reason why this program is unreliable. Plusnetwork.com is set to display commercial advertisements which we deem unreliable, because we have seen it promote other potentially unwanted programs as well as some shady websites. The most annoying part is that this search engine changes your browser’s settings automatically without giving you any prior warning. We do not recommend using this search engine. Plusnetwork.com is untrustworthy and Video Search Tools Plus is a useless browser extension. Now that we have got this out of the way, let us discuss how this program is disseminated.

Video Search Tools Plus has the most varied means of distribution. When conducting our research, we have found that it can be bundled with other potentially unwanted programs that are featured on freeware websites. It can also be downloaded from its promotional website at Videosearchtoolsplus.com. Furthermore, this program is featured on Google’s Chrome Web Store, which is gives the impression that Video Search Tools Plus is completely legitimate. However, we beg to differ, as we have learned about its shady promotions. This program has been created by Keen Internet Technologies Ltd which is based in Israel. Plusnetwork.com on the other hand was released by Zone Media Ltd, based in the United Kingdom.

We hope that the information provided in this article has proven useful to you. As you can now tell, Video Search Tools Plus is an unreliable browser extension that is legitimized only because it is featured on the Chrome Web store. It should be removed from there sooner or later, but until then, users are going to download it thinking that this program is useful. Well, it is not and we suggest that you remove it mainly because of its unreliable search engine that automatically takes over Chrome’s homepage and search provider settings.
