PDFConvertersSearch
If you often need to convert your documents into PDF format, you might consider acquiring a program that might help you do that, but we would strongly recommend against using PDFConvertersSearch.

While you’re at it, check whether you have more unwanted apps installed because they tend to travel in packs. ...
Ezy Photo Tab
Ezy Photo Tab is a potentially unwanted program that you might come across, for example, if you are looking for ways to edit your photos free of charge. The application does not offer photo-editing tools, but it can provide users with links to websites that can offer such tools. The application should place such links on a toolbar that appears below the browser’s address bar after the extension gets installed. The plugin might also change browser preferences, such as your homepage as well as gather data about your browsing. If you want to learn more about its working manner, we advise reading the rest of this report. ...

You can learn more about this if you read the rest of this report. We can also offer our deletion instructions located below the text that show how to manually remove Converter Suite. ...

SearchSeries
SearchSeries is meant to help you search for the content, services, products, or sites you are interested in. Also, it is meant to provide you with optimized services, which seemingly places it above other comparable search tools. If you think that this extension can offer you superior web search services, we have to disappoint you. As a matter of fact, it cannot even offer search results. Instead, it redirects to Yahoo Search. This might not sound like a big deal, but the results can be modified to inject advertisements and sponsored content that belongs to unknown third-party partners. ...
UpdateSearch
UpdateSearch might not look like a computer security threat, but there definitely are certain security issues associated with this application, and we would like to discuss them. It is a potentially unwanted program that could be exploited by malevolent third parties. As a result, you could be exposed to harmful third-party content. You can avoid that by removing UpdateSearch today.

If possible, invest in a licensed antispyware application, too. ...
Mazy Search
Google Chrome users need to be very mindful about Mazy Search, an extension that is set up to replace the default search provider with browser.mazysearch.com. According to our researchers, this search tool has the same interface as mazysearch.com; however, the latter one is blocked by the browser, and users are warned that it is “not secure.” The interfaces of these search tools offer a search dialog box, a clock and date combo on the top-right corner, and a changing background image. Both redirect to Google Search, which is why we cannot identify them as useful search tools. ...
SearchWizard

If the task looks challenging or you do not want to delete the application manually, you could install a reliable security tool that could do it for you. ...
RecipeFox
Do you believe that RecipeFox can offer you recipes for thousands of amazing meals? If that is what you were made to believe, we have to disappoint you. If you install this extension onto Google Chrome, it will modify your search settings to introduce you to a search tool that redirects to Google Search. Can you find recipes on this search engine? Yes, you absolutely can, but why would you install an extension that redirected you to a search engine you can use on its own. Perhaps you already use Google Search as your main search provider, and so there really is no point in installing the PUP, which is short for “potentially unwanted program.” ...
Track Net Speed
If you have decided that you want to delete Track Net Speed from your Google Chrome browser, it is most likely that you have found the extension to be useless. Sure, it promises to test your internet speeds, but there are plenty of reputable speed testers online, and your own internet speed provider could offer one. Undoubtedly, you do not need to install any extension to test internet speeds. Of course, some people might find the extension to be convenient, for example, if they test speeds daily or even several times a day. ...
