The My Email Signin is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) published by Polarity Technologies LTD. This company is behind a long list of browser extensions, which are compatible with major browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. Usually, Polarity's products offer to provide users with access to interesting and useful features which can be accessed through the browser's new tab page directly. The case with the My Email Signin isn't any different, and this extension promises to give users the ability to access and check their e-mails from the new tab page that the My Email Signin introduces directly. While this may sound useful, the only way to use this extension is to authorize it to modify your browser's settings and replace your default new tab page.
The website the My Email Signin promotes is Search.hmyemailsignin.com, a search page that hosts a search feature alongside a collection of links to popular email services and websites. The search feature works by redirecting the user to the Yahoo Search so that it is safe to say that the results it displays will be reliable.
Regardless of all this, the My Email Signin is listed as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP), and researchers also have detected several other variants of this add-on:
- Your Easy Emails by Search.youreasyemailsh.com
- Your Fast Email Now by Search.hyourfastemailnow.com
- Your Email Now by Search.youremailnow.com
- Email Login Now by Search.emailloginnow.com
If you have one of these extensions installed on your computer and you do not wish to use its services, then it is recommended to remove them immediately to restore your browser's previous new tab page. The removal of PUPs like the My Email Signin can be completed either manually or with the use of a reliable PC security scanner.
