Features & Capabilities

This extension is useful, for example, if you want a traditional search engine (e.g., Google) for general searches, and an online dictionary or Wikipedia as a second search engine.

Usage:

Select the text on a web page that you want to search for.
Right-click to open the context menu.
Click 2nd Search Engine, or hit the keyboard shortcut 2.

The first time you use the extension, the options page opens automatically, where you can easily set up a second search engine. The options page can also be opened from the browser's add-ons manager.

You can either select from the browser's built-in search engines, or enter a custom search URL.

Is Second Selection Search 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.

Second Selection Search does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Second Selection Search is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
