About this infection in short
NewTab.Pro is seen as a browser hijacker that can install without your consent. Setup normally happens by chance and frequently users are not even aware of how it happened. It spreads through software packages so if you happen upon it residing in your operating system, you did not notice it being adjoined when you installed free applications. A redirect virus is not a dangerous piece of malware and should not harm. Take into account, however, that you might be redirected to advertisement pages, as the browser intruder aims to create pay-per-click revenue. Browser intruders don’t check the portals so you might be redirected to one that would permit malware to infect your OS. We do not suggest keeping it as it is somewhat worthless to you. Abolish NewTab.Pro to restore normal browsing.
