Is Live Start Page - Speed Dial safe?
Live Start Page sends history-derived top-site hostnames to everhelper.pro during first-install speed-dial setup.
On a first install, Live Start Page reads browser history entries, groups them into top visited hostnames, and uses them to prepare speed-dial thumbnails. For each selected site, it requests thumbnail metadata from everhelper.pro with the site hostname plus extension setup details such as tile counts and position.

Shared hosts - 22 hostnames
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
