The Inspiratiooo.com domain is used by Aztec Media Inc. to offer search results and display targeted marketing materials to PC users. The Inspiratiooo.com domain is associated with a browser extension for Google Chrome that is called 'Inspiratiooo' which can be found at h[tt]ps://chrome.google[.]com/webstore/detail/inspiratiooo/ofbkibnjeifpjjcnelcgganbfdhcnfil. The Inspiratiooo Chrome Extension is a slightly modified version of the BlpMovies application from Aztec Media Inc. that we commented on earlier. Installing the Inspiratiooo Chrome Extension triggers the following dialog box on the Chrome Web Store:

'Add "Inspiratiooo"?
It can:
Read and change all your data on the websites you visit.
Replace the page you see when opening a new tab.
Change your search settings to: inspiratiooo.com
Detect your physical location.'

The Inspiratiooo Chrome Extension is deemed as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that is designed to change your new tab page to http://inspiratiooo.com/welcome.php and cause browser redirects to Google.com. The Inspiratiooo New Tab includes a black-and-white photo of a forest, a search bar and an inspirational quote from a random political figure. The Inspiratiooo New Tab is not customizable, and you can't access bookmarks and frequently visited sites from the Inspiratiooo.com/welcome.php. The Inspiratiooo.com domain includes a privacy agreement and a terms of use document from h[tt]p://www.blpsearch[.]com/privacy and h[tt]p://www.blpsearch[.]com/terms. Aztec Media Inc. is a company that uses advertisements on its sites to make money, and you are likely to find tailor-suited promotional materials on the Inspiratiooo New Tab in Google Chrome. Some users may not like the browser redirects from Inspiratiooo.com and the presence of ads on their new tab. You should be able to uninstall the Inspiratiooo Chrome Extension using the Extensions Manager. However, the tracking cookies and Web beacons downloaded by Aztec Media Inc. to your PC can be erased with the help of a trusted anti-spyware scanner.
