SearchCleaner Firefox

SearchCleaner

By: Yanchi
Automatically adds your preset text (e.g. -temu -pinterest) to search queries so you can filter out sites you don’t want. Works on Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, and 40+ other search engines.

Features & Capabilities

SearchCleaner keeps your search results focused by appending preset text to your queries. Add terms like -temu -pinterest -reddit (or any you choose) so search engines filter out those domains.

Features Preset list — Define multiple presets and turn each on or off with one click. Many search engines — Works on Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Brave Search, Ecosia, Startpage, Qwant, Yandex, Baidu, and dozens more. Custom presets — Add your own exclude text and combine several at once. Custom sites — Support any search site that uses a query parameter (e.g. ?q=). In-page indicator — On search pages, a small panel shows status and lets you toggle the extension and presets without opening the popup. Re-run search — One click to re-run the current search with your active presets applied. Sync — Settings and presets sync across your devices (Firefox sync).

Privacy No data collection. Presets and settings stay in your browser; nothing is sent to external servers.

How it works When you visit a supported search engine and run a query, SearchCleaner appends your active preset text to the query (e.g. shoes becomes shoes -temu -froogo), so results from those domains are reduced or removed. You can enable or disable the extension and each preset at any time.

Is SearchCleaner Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

SearchCleaner requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

SearchCleaner may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
