What is Portal.easy-pdf.com?

Portal.easy-pdf.com is a browser-hijacking product created to generate advertising revenue. It is usually installed without seeking the consent of users and seeks to redirect them to affiliated domains and displaying various commercial content. Once installed, the hijacker sets the homepage, search engine, and the new tab address of the web browser to Portal.easy-pdf.com. To make users visit affiliate sites and thereby gain profit, users might start receiving inaccurate search results instead of organic ones. Sponsored content displayed to users and annoying redirects might also cause your web browsers and computer to freeze. Easy Pdf should be removed not only from the device but also from your web-browsers. Norton Antivirus removal tool might be able to help you do that. Experienced users can follow our manual guide.
