The Antrie.com Web portal is registered to the 45.63.119.152 IP address, and it is listed as a domain dedicated to sports news. Antrie.com is associated with a browser hijacker that is reported to force Internet clients like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Edge to load Antrie.com. Additionally, there are reports that Antrie.com hosts sub-pages, which promote a program called KOOL Player, which is known to inject advertisements on Web pages. The Antrie.com browser hijacker might land on computers via free software packages and change the default start page, new tab and search provider settings. Computer security experts note that Antrie.com may look like a new tab replacement powered by Google, but it has nothing to do with the services by Google Inc.

You may be redirected to localized versions of Google.com when searching through Antrie.com as it has a search bar. However, the site is not recognized as a partner to Google Inc. The links displayed on Antrie.com may refer to services by third parties like Facebook, Yahoo, BBC News, CNN News, Netflix, and PayPal, but you need to take into consideration that Antrie.com might cause redirects to promotional materials first. That means loading Facebook.com via Antrie.com may be preceded by a short visit to a platform. The Antrie.com browser hijacker might collect data like your Internet history and recently entered search terms to download targeted commercials and display them on your new tab. The KOOL Player program advertised by Antrie.com may be advertised as an essential plugin that enables you to load HD content online, but that is not true. You can remove the KOOL Player and related unwanted software by using a trusted anti-malware utility.
