Is Get Screen Resolution safe?

Medium risk

Get Screen Resolution sends new-tab search queries and typed URLs to yhereugo.com with affiliate identifiers.

The extension replaces the Chrome new tab page with its own search box. When a user searches or types a URL into that box, the form submits the entered text to yhereugo.com/results.aspx along with fixed affiliate parameters.
