Find Instant Recipes

Do you cook every day? If you do, you might be on a constant lookout for new recipes. Find Instant Recipes is an extension that hopes to attract users like you, but although it promises to provide you with “easy and fast recipes,” know that suspicious things are found beneath the attractive surface of this potentially unwanted program (PUP). Our research team has analyzed it, and it is obvious to us that deleting this extension is the best move. We understand the reason why some people might decide to continue using this PUP even after they learn about the security risks involved, but if you continue reading our report, we can offer you a solution. If you cannot wait to remove Find Instant Recipes from your Chrome or Firefox browser, we have got you covered. Scroll down to find the guides you need to get rid of the PUP successfully. If you are looking for an alternative method, we can offer that as well.

Eightpoint Technologies Ltd. is the company behind Find Instant Recipes, as well as hundreds of other PUPs alike, including View Free Recipes, Easy Gaming App, and Weather Forecaster. These extensions usually have official download pages, and Google Chrome users can often find them on the Chrome Web Store. Find Instant Recipes does not have an installer on this platform, and that might be due to the fact that its official installer on findinstantrecipes.com is broken. We do not know if the creator of the PUP will bother fixing it, or when that might happen. However, the suspicious extension could be spread in other ways too. For example, it could be bundled with other suspicious add-ons and programs. Or it could be promoted with the help of misleading, intrusive advertisements that might be connected to unreliable websites and adware servers. Without a doubt, you must be mindful and careful about how you install anything because you do not want to find yourself dealing with malware, do you? While the PUP is not classified as malware per se, there certainly are reasons to delete it.

Once installed, Find Instant Recipes introduces search.hfindinstantrecipes.com as the startup page and the default search provider. If you use it as the provider, you do not see it, but it has a unique interface when introduced to you as you launch the browser. This interface offers easy-access links to food-related websites, including totalrecipesnetwork.com, foodnetwork.co.uk, yummly.com, and epicurious.com. This might create an illusion that Find Instant Recipes works as a recipe finder, but know that you don’t need an extension to access all of these websites. You could easily bookmark them for easy access! What about the search tool? If you search via the dialog box – or if you use the tool as the search provider – you are bound to find yourself redirected to Yahoo Search. The search results introduced to you might seem normal, but they are modified, and so trusting them is not a good move. If you interact with the search results, you could find yourself on suspicious websites that are promoting third-party products and services or search-unrelated content. Note that the additional links could be picked according to your own activity too because the PUP can track you and even collecting personally identifiable data.

Can you follow simple instructions? If you can, you can delete Find Instant Recipes too. This PUP is a simple extension in its structure, and so it should be enough for you to remove the unwanted extension directly from the affected browser to get rid of it. As you can see, our guides also show how to clear browsing history. We have added these steps to help you get rid of data-tracking tools that the PUP can employ to track you and your activity. You do not need to clear all browsing data, but we specifically recommend clearing cache, cookies, and browsing history. Of course, if other threats exist, we suggest leaving manual removal for a different occasion. Instead, install a legitimate anti-malware program that will automatically identify and delete unreliable programs and malicious threats for you. Hopefully, we have cleared things up and answered the most pressing questions. If you wish to continue the discussion, we are ready to do that in the comments section.
