Myfashiontab.com Virus - How to remove

Myfashiontab.com is presented as a valuable tool for fashionistas – supposedly it can find various fashion runway resources faster and more convenient. This tool works as a browser extension, so it is available on official Google Play store, as well as on others extensions lists. Unfortunately, we have discovered that this free tool is a browser hijacker and can cause more harm than good. And we have some points to prove that.

If you are still wondering whether you should keep Myfashiontab.com extension installed or not, don’t think any longer. Due to this application, you can lose your personal information, experience much worse web browsing and get your computer infected with other potentially unwanted programs. This is why we highly suggest to remove it as soon as possible. Also, if you have noticed that Myfashiontab.com is operating on the web browser you are currently using, you should switch to an alternative one until the infection is removed – it will be safer this way.

Our goal is to provide you with detailed instructions on how to deal with this particular infection and also protect your computer better, so this won’t happen again. We will also cover the most common features of Myfashiontab.com virus, so stay tuned or scroll down directly to the removal instructions.

Myfashiontab.com Malware Features

We have some sound arguments to prove our point that Myfashiontab.com is a malware. Let’s start with the distribution – it travels bundled to other free software that can be downloaded from the Internet and gets installed secretly, it comes as a surprise. A pretty unwanted surprise, to say the least. Also, it can be promoted on some excessive advertisements that you encounter on the internet – most of the time false information is displayed there in order to trick people into installing this free tool.

When it gets inside of your computer, it automatically changes your personal settings and the way you browse the Internet. All of the sudden your new tab page on the infected web browser will be changes and you will see a different view. They replace your regular page with their own landing page that might look nice, but in reality is dangerous and should be not used.

Since this tool was developed by Mindspark, it’s not an odd thing to see that they promote a web search powered by MyWay, which is a browser hijacker that was also created by Mindspark. The reason why we do not recommend to use this search – you will get a lot of results that are not relevant to your search queries and you might also lose your personal information.

That’s not it – you are likely to experience additional advertisements while browsing the Internet, so this malware is kind of similar to an adware infection. Also, various junk files can be created and stored on your computer, which will result in a slower work of a whole system.
