Is Extended Search Results safe?

Clean risk

Extended Search Results sends user-initiated search terms to www.searchext.com for its default and popup search features.

It sets the browser's default search provider to a searchext.com URL, so searches typed in the address bar are sent as the p query parameter. Its popup search flow can also open a searchext.com search URL with the typed query when Yahoo is selected.
