You might think that InspiringBackgrounds is a genuine and beneficial program, but our research has revealed something else. According to the information we have gathered, this seemingly useful program can spy on you and introduce you to suspicious search results, which are valid reasons to remove it from the browsers immediately. Notably, it is installed as an extension onto Firefox and Chrome browsers, but it is installed as an application for Internet Explorer users. Luckily, it is quite easy to delete InspiringBackgrounds regardless of which browser you use. Please continue reading this report to learn why we advise eliminating this application from the Windows operating system and web browsers.
Did you download InspiringBackgrounds from inspiringbackgrounds.com/index.jhtml or the Chrome web store? Both of these sources are considered authentic; however, having the app installed from a legit source does not make it reliable. Of course, it is much better to install it from an authentic source than using a suspicious installer. Have you used an unfamiliar installer to acquire this strange app? If you have, the first thing you must do is perform a full system scan. Unfortunately, it is possible that third-party malware could be bundled along with the app, and it is important that you figure this out sooner rather than later. Of course, do not postpone the removal of malware if you discover it because you do not want dangerous threats to start performing in a malicious way.
As you might know already, InspiringBackgrounds is part of the Mindspark family, to which we link CatHomepage Toolbar, EasyWeatherAlert Toolbar, and many other suspicious apps as well. In most cases, these applications come bundled with the MyWay search tool. Whether or not you notice it, by installing the applications, you accept to have your homepages modified as well. Although this is not kept in secret, many users simply do not notice the disclaimers warning about it. Of course, third-party installers might conceal this information altogether, in which case, you have all the right to call MyWay a hijacker that deserves immediate removal. Even if you agreed to have your homepage replaced, there are reasons why you should delete this search tool.
Did you know that InspiringBackgrounds can spy on you? It can do that using its own cookies, as well as the cookies linked to MyWay. Although it is suggested that this search tool is supported by Google, this company has nothing to do with the search tool itself, and you have to review the original Privacy Policy to fully understand how it works. According to the policy we have reviewed, the potentially unwanted program can spy on you in a highly intrusive manner. It is stated that personal information can be recorded, and that is not something to be ignored. If your virtual security is important to you, you have to do whatever it takes to keep it protected, and trusting software capable of recording personal data is not something you should permit. Needless to say, this is another good reason to remove the PUP.
Many computer users who encounter InspiringBackgrounds are scared that they will not be able to delete it successfully. Fortunately, we can tell you that this potentially unwanted program is not at all complicated, and you can erase it manually without much trouble. Just to make things easier for you, we have created a guide that will help you remove InspiringBackgrounds in no time. Note that if you use Internet Explorer, you will have to uninstall an app via Control Panel. Overall, we are not worried about the PUP. Unfortunately, the third-party programs that could have slithered in along with it are very disconcerting. We advise employing an automated malware remover to eliminate them. If you are determined to erase them yourself, research them before you do anything.
