The Search.searchtmpn4.com domain is associated with the free browser extension 'Track Packages' published by Polarity Technologies Ltd. The Search.searchtmpn4.com domain has three sub-domains that can be accessed via query.searchtmpn4.com, home.searchtmpn4.com, and config.searchtmpn4.com which deliver the same user experience. The Track Packages browser extension is offered to PC users for free, and you may be interested in what it has to offer. The Track Packages application supports Google Chrome, and it is stated to help users track packages and parcels sent via services like UPX Couriers, FedEx, USPS, and UPS. The services provided via the 'Track Packages' software product are presented as a new tab page powered by Search.searchtmpn4.com (or the sub-domains query.searchtmpn4.com, home.searchtmpn4.com, and config.searchtmpn4.com). PC users who proceed to install the Track Packages extension are shown a dialog box that says:
'Add "Track Packages"?
It can:
- Read and change all your data on the websites you visit.
- Replace the page you see when opening a new tab.
- Manage your apps, extensions, and themes.'
You should know that Search.searchtmpn4.com is powered by a customized Yahoo engine that loads search results via:
h[tt]ps://search.yahoo[.]com/yhs/search?hspart=adk&hsimp=yhs-adk_sbyhp&p=[search terms]¶m2=2fdd3446-d978-4c10-b0f1-f0d3e70c2ab4¶m3=packages_~EN~¶m4=~Chrome~[search terms]¶m1=17700101&type=
Additionally, Polarity shares information about your online activity, installed programs, recent downloads and clicked ads to marketers. The terms of service and privacy policy can be found on h[tt]p://search.searchtmpn4[.]com/Home/Privacy and h[tt]p://search.searchtmpn4[.]com/Home/Terms. Computer security analysts perceive the Track Packages extension as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that causes browser redirects via Search.searchtmpn4.com to Yahoo and might change your default search provider. The Track Packages application behaves identically to the Your Packages Now, the Locate Your Package, Track Packages Online and the Package Tracker Pro extensions released by Polarity in the past. At the time of research, we found another clone of 'Track Packages' published on Chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/track-my-package/ijbhodgieeokalkdiehlkbekkfobohgd. The company behind Search.searchtmpn4.com is known to use numerous browser extensions to collect non-personally identifiable data from Web surfers and earn ad revenue through Yahoo Ads. The Track Packages extension does not help users track packages by using an in-house solution. Instead, users are shown a widget on the insecure Search.searchtmpn4.com site which they can use to open the genuine package tracking service. You may want to remove the extension associated with Search.searchtmpn4.com and bookmark your favorite package tracking service.
