What is AntiGravity Tab?
AntiGravity Tab is an extension for Google Chrome that is claimed to enhance your browsing experience, but nothing could be further from the trust as this extension will not improve your browsing experience in any shape or form. Its main selling points are abstract animations on the main page that it modifies and also the ability to check the weather in your location with an hourly four-day forecast. These features are far from useful, and we regard them as useless gimmicks. Therefore, we suggest you remove this extension from your PC altogether as we have classified it as a potentially unwanted program.
Where does AntiGravity Tab come from?
Our security experts have concluded that AntiGravity Tab is an application without a specified developer or publisher. There is no information on what company created it even though it has a dedicated distribution website. This program is featured on Antigravityflowtab.com which contains no information on this program’s origins. We think that this information was not included intentionally as this program is an inherently unreliable, useless program.
As far as its distribution channels are concerned, researchers have found that you can get this application from its dedicated website at Antigravityflowtab.com and also the Chrome Web Store. The information on the store indicates that there are 11 users of this program, so it seems that it is doing rather poorly. Therefore, our researchers say that its creators might try to bundle this application with other third-party software and host it on free software distributing sites to get more users.
What does AntiGravity Tab do?
As mentioned in the introduction, AntiGravity Tab is an extension that is dedicated to bringing you an animated homepage complemented by a weather gauge, but that is not what it is truly meant to do. Our security experts say that this program changes the homepage and new tab page to a custom search engine that uses Google.com to bring you search results. This search engine does not show modified search results. However, our security experts believe that this program’s search engine can collect information about you and show third party advertisements.
The ads might be presented next to the search results or injected into various websites or even replace the original ads of a given website. The ads can come from unknown sources and, thus, can be unreliable. As far as information collection is concerned, researchers say that AntiGravity Tab might obtain information such as your IP address, search queries, browsing history, browser type, OS type, and so on. In short, to can collect statistical, non-personally identifiable information and use to customize the ads somewhat. It is clear that this program was created not to enhance and improve your browsing experience but generate advertising revenue for its unknown developers and their advertising partners. However, the ads shown can be unreliable and subject you to unreliable content. Therefore, we advise you to consider getting rid of this application.
