Is Safeplex Search safe?
This extension checks visited websites for safety and adds Yahoo-powered web search.
Safeplex Search customizes the browser and lets users click its toolbar favicon to see whether a website is marked safe or potentially harmful. It sends the user’s IP address and anonymized visited-domain information to Safeplex Search servers to check domains against security filters, and it collects anonymous technical extension information for product improvement and troubleshooting.
