Newtab.today may not look any different compared it with well-known search engines, but our researchers think otherwise. First of all, it was noticed the application could be spread via software bundles of other untrustworthy programs. What’s more, while researching it even further, our specialists learned the website does not have Terms of Use, End User License Agreement, or at least Privacy Policy statements. Therefore, there is a little-known information about Newtab.today, and it seems to us it is not enough to consider it as a reliable tool. Provided, you do not wish to waste your time with this doubtful application, we encourage you to remove it with no hesitation. As to help users with this task we will be placing our recommended deletion steps just below this text, but there is no need to hurry, and if you wish to learn more, you should read the report first.

It looks like to display search results Newtab.today might be using Google search engine. So far, it does not look like it is modified or in other words, there are no signs the application might be injecting the results with suspicious third-party advertising content. Nonetheless, we are not convinced this could not happen later in the future since as we mentioned earlier in the text, there is not much information about this tool. For instance, the users do not even know if the program may collect any information related to them (anonymous or personal). We do not say the application will necessarily invade your privacy, but there are no reassurances it cannot do this either. As for the Terms of Use or End User License Agreement documents they are important because often the statements on them explain what kind of advertising you could expect, whether such content can be trusted or not, if the tool itself is reliable, etc.

Furthermore, at the beginning of the report, we also mentioned Newtab.today might travel with bundled software installers. Knowing this, we would not be surprised if some users placed the search engine on their system without even realizing it. Often it happens when users pay no attention to what is written on the setup wizard and do not notice they can deselect the additional programs suggested on it. As a result, such applications might be added automatically and without further notice. If you do not want this to happen for you, it would be a good idea to choose advanced or custom installation settings and read the given terms carefully. Of course, if the installer is malicious it could place software on the computer without informing the user at all. This is why it is same important to choose reliable sources from where you could receive trustworthy installers.

All things considered, if you are not too attached to Newtab.today and do not feel like you might miss it if it was erased, it would be advisable to replace it with a more reputable search engine. You should be able to pick a new search tool as soon as you reset the browser displaying the suspicious website. Users who need any assistance to achieve this should follow our recommended deletion steps available below this paragraph since they will explain what the user needs to do to reset various browsers in detail. You can also ask for more help or submit your question through the comments section below the text, so do not hesitate to leave us a message if you want to.
