My Video Converter

The My Video Converter application is a bogus Web browser extension tool. The operators of the My Video Converter add-on are likely to overstate the usefulness of this extension. Users who seek a tool to help them convert file formats or compress videos are likely to stumble upon the My Video Converter Web browser extension. This dodgy add-on will claim to offer great tools that will go a long way in making your life easier when dealing with video files. However, this is definitely not the case.

The My Video Converter application does not contain a video converter tool. If you install the My Video Converter extension, you will notice quickly that this dodgy add-on has applied some changes to your Web browser without ever consulting with you. The My Video Converter extension sets a new default search engine in your Web browser – ‘Search.hfilevideoconverter.com.’ This is not the typical behavior of a genuine extension. Due to this, malware researchers have listed the My Video Converter application as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). Users who execute searches via Search.hfilevideoconverter.com may end up getting sponsored content as the first results of their searches. This means that the search results you get may not be organic, and therefore be less relevant.

It is advisable to remove the My Video Converter add-on from your Web browser as soon as possible. You can uninstall this PUP via your Web browser settings or with the aid of a genuine anti-malware solution.
