The appearance of the application should be noticed quite quickly as it could change your default search engine, new tab page, and start page with Search.hemailloginnow.com. The search engine provides a toolbar with a second search box, local weather widget, and links to different email login web pages. Accordingly, it might seem handy, especially if you have not bookmarked the provided links yet and you visit these sites often. Nonetheless, if it entered the system without the user realizing it, the application should raise a suspicion. From what we have learned while testing it in our internal lab we can say users are right to doubt this search engine’s reliability.
First of all, it is worth to mention the browser hijacker’s Privacy Policy states Search.hemailloginnow.com and its advertising partners could gather information related to the user’s interests and browsing habits to provide him with tempting ads. The bad news is the software’s creators do not promise such ads will be reviewed to ensure their safety, which means there is a chance some of the advertising content could be potentially dangerous, e.g. it might lead you to scam web pages seeking to obtain your private data. We cannot be one hundred percent sure, but some of the ads could also promote different browser hijackers, adware, potentially unwanted software, or even malware. Naturally, because of this, we do not think it would be safe to use this search engine.
