Many users report that every time they open a new tab page, they end up viewing the Search-space.net website. This page hosts a simple search engine that is Google-based. This means that it is safe to use the Search-space.net website to run your search queries, as this page does not pose a threat to your computer.
However, if the Search-space.net site is set as your default new tab page, you may have installed a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) on your computer unknowingly. It is common for dodgy Web browser extensions to alter the user’s settings and set up affiliated websites as the default new tab page in an attempt to boost the site’s traffic. If you have installed any new add-ons recently, it is likely that this is the reason for the changes in your Web browser. Legitimate Web browser extensions would not meddle with your system’s settings behind your back. This is why it is advisable to remove the Web browser add-on responsible for the changes applied to your settings.
If you want to locate and remove the PUP that has likely altered your Web browser’s settings to set the Search-space.net site as your default new tab page, it is best to use a genuine anti-virus application.
