This is also normal with other new tab hijackers, such as EasyMailLogin, FreeShoppingTool, SimpleHolidayRecipes, etc.

Additionally, they collect information about your browsing habits. InboxAce New Tab can read your browsing history and your search history, which means that it has a lot of information about you.

How InboxAce gets installed

InboxAce New Tab is installed bundled with free programs from the Internet. It is one of the most convenient ways to advertise new applications and get them installed on many computers. Despite the fact that it’s unfair to promote programs this way, InboxAce New Tab is not considered to be malicious. It is a potentially unwanted program that can actually be avoided. All you need to do it be patient and careful with your installations. Instead of making the installation quick, you should go for Custom installation and see if any additional programs, like InboxAce New Tab, are added.

InboxAce is advertised online, mostly on websites for online streaming. The ads are not always fair. Many of the ads for InboxAce New Tab are taken care of by ad-networks like Adcash and PopCash, which are known for distributing various malware in the past. Also, InboxAce is sometimes installed right after another Mindspark browser extension. People with InboxAce New Tab in their browsers likely have other hijackers or adware applications, too.

As of 2017, MindSpark Interactive Network is a well-established company, mainly recognized for its tendency to produce a lot of entertaining applications. However, it appears to be actively promoting various questionable toolbars and applications as well. InboxAce is one of the hundreds of offered programs that you should not be agreeing to install. Even though MindSpark is not an unreliable company, security researchers are still expressing concerns about whether everything about their products is safe and sound. At the moment, users might be introduced with promotional web browser windows that urge them to try out this product of MindSpark. As we have already explained, InboxAce New Tab belongs to the category of malware and should not be downloaded. Resist offers that might currently be circulating on the World Wide Web as MindSpark persistently attempts to promote its product.

On behalf of developers of InboxAce New Tab we were asked to remove this article due to false information on it. However, we feel like this post is correct and helpful to our readers. InboxAce Toolbar and other software developed by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc. can be detected and recognised as viruses or potentially unwanted software by various anti-malware tools.
