We should begin with how users might receive or encounter Email Access Here. Our specialists say that the application could be distributed through questionable file-sharing websites, redirects, and bundled setup files just like other similar potentially unwanted programs. Thus, if you do not want to end up receiving this or other applications alike, you should avoid downloading applications from unreliable websites and be attentive during the installation process.

Upon being installed Email Access Here might ask users a few permissions. Like to allow it to “Replace the page you see when opening a new tab.” Our researchers say that the extension might replace not only users new tab page, but also his homepage and default search engine with hp.hemailaccesshere.com. Also, they noticed that this website might provide a search engine that could redirect users to a modified Yahoo search engine. The modified version might not show the same results as the original Yahoo search engine even if you use the same keywords. That is because Email Access Here might alter the modified variant’s results, for example, it might be able to place advertisements from various third parties that the original search.yahoo.com might not show. To be safe, we recommend being careful with third-party ads if you are not sure where they come from as they could be unreliable.
