Stolen Camera Finder
Stolen Camera Finder is a browser extension that might search the web pages you visit to check if the photos they contain were made by your stolen camera. As you see, most cameras have unique serial numbers, and they can be seen on the photo’s Exif. Thus, if the plugin finds a picture made by a camera that is claimed to be stolen, it can inform its owner. While there are no guarantees the current owner will be willing to give your camera back, some users hope the person could at least provide information about where he got it, which might make it easier to track the one who stole it. ...

Note that it does not change the homepage or new tab page addresses — it changes the search provider only.

Vudu Search
If you are still thinking about installing Vudu Search, we suggest you forget about this allegedly useful tool and find something better.

If you have already let the extension in, you might have noticed that the suspicious feed.vudusearch.com is redirecting your searches to Yahoo Search. ...
