The Your Free PDF Converter Now is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that can find its way onto your system through various ways. The most common delivery vector used to distribute Potentially Unwanted Programs is via a software bundle installer. Those bundle installers often contain PUPs piggy-backing in the bundle, sometimes alongside legitimate software.
The Your Free PDF Converter Now is more of an annoyance than an immediate threat to your computer's health. The Your Free PDF Converter Now changes the contents of your browser's new tab to a page located at ext.searchencrypt.com.
The changed content of the new tab will offer users to install a browser extension that claims to enhance the privacy of the users' online searches by encrypting the search terms. The issue is, the EULA and the Privacy Policy published on the above address states that users will receive search results from Search Encrypt's own search and content partners but those partners are not listed and named on the main page. Search Encrypt has a Chrome Web Store page as well, but zero user reviews, despite showing over 4,000 users. The simplest way to keep your system away from Potentially Unwanted Programs is being very careful with bundle installers and watching out for any poorly disclosed extra applications in them. Another solution would be to have an up-to-date, reliable security suite that can catch an unwanted software before it finds its way on your system.
