Download Office Tools

The Download Office Tools is yet another bogus Web browser extension that will promise to provide you with various useful tools and information but will fail to deliver it.

The Download Office Tools Web browser extension has been listed as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) by malware analysts. The reason for this is that once it is installed successfully, this add-on will go on to change the settings of your Web browser. Genuine Web browser extensions would never alter your system’s settings without asking for your explicit consent. The Download Office Tools Web browser add-on will change your default new tab page by replacing it with the ‘Search.hconvertmyvidsnow.com’ domain. The Download Office Tools extension also will change your search aggregator by replacing it with an affiliated search engine – ‘Query.hconvertmyvidsnow.com.’ Users need to keep in mind that search results delivered by dubious search engines like the one in question are not likely to provide them with organic, relevant results. It is likely that they may attempt to promote untrustworthy products and services, so it is best to avoid clicking on any advertisements affiliated with the Download Office Tools Web browser extension.

If you want to remove the Download Office Tools extension from your Web browser, you can either do this manually via your system’s configurations or with the aid of a genuine anti-spyware suite.
