What is QuotationCafe?
QuotationCafe is yet another toolbar that has been developed by Mindspark Interactive Network. The browser plugin is available for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox users from quotationcafe.com. You may already be familiar with other products from the same company including mywebsearch.com, Cursor Mania, Daily Bible Guide and HappinessInfusion. Even though theses browser plugins are not malicious, Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers warn that you need to be careful with their installation setups. If you do not pay enough attention, you may discover that your home page and default search engine have been modified seemingly without your consent. In reality, you are given the option to keep the browser settings unmodified. Nonetheless, you can remove QuotationCafe from your personal system if you wish, and we can help you.
How does QuotationCafe act?
If you pay no attention to the installation process, as soon as the toolbar is installed your home page is set as home.mywebsearch.com. This search engine may seem attractive because of the provided links to Gmail, Yahoo, Facebook, YouTube, Amazon, Twitter, Wikipedia, MSN, Pinterest, eBay, and Instagram. However, once you enter a keyword into the search bar and click Search, you should immediately notice that you are provided with sponsored results before any reliable information. Therefore, it is not recommended that you trust this particular search engine. The Privacy Policy of the application states that you may also be exposed to third-party ads when using the search engine:
We use third-party companies to serve advertisements when you visit the Site. […] In addition, we may allow third-parties, including our authorized service providers, IAC companies, advertising companies, and ad networks, to display advertisements or place ad tags or beacons on the Site.
The toolbar itself divide quick-access links through such categories as Daily Quote, More Quotes, and Paradise Photos. It is stated that these links can provide you with one-click access to daily motivational and inspiring quotes. Additionally, you are provided with links to Facebook, Horoscopes and Weather. Do you find these services beneficial? In reality, there are plenty of other more reliable and useful browser plugins, which is why you may want to delete QuotationCafe without further delay.
