Is Tropical Horizons Wallpapers safe?

Medium risk

Tropical Horizons Wallpapers sends new-tab search queries to trop.tropicalhorizon-ext.com.

When you use the extension's new-tab search box, it reads the text you enter and opens a Tropical Horizons search URL with that query in the address. The query is sent as the q parameter to trop.tropicalhorizon-ext.com along with the fixed tid value used by the extension.

Shared hosts - 1 hostname

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.
