Radio Hub Online

Posted: March 13, 2020

Radio Hub Online is a browser extension, which might promise to give you quick access to a rich library of online radio stations that you can tune in to from your Web browser. However, the installation of Radio Hub Online is mandatory to use these features – what the extension might not tell you in its advertisement is that you have to allow Radio Hub Online to replace your default new tab page if you wish to install it. Once it receives this permission, Radio Hub Online will set your new tab page to Radiohubonline.com/homepage. This change is not a security concern, but it might have a negative impact on your Web browsing experience since Radio Hub Online's New Tab page is inferior to popular new tab pages like Google, Bing or Yahoo, certainly.

Radio Hub Online is categorized as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) – if you have a reputable anti-virus service enabled, it is likely to prevent the Radio Hub Online's installation, and recommend its removal. If you did not have a security tool to prevent Radio Hub Online's installation, and you are not happy with the changes that this add-on brought, then we suggest that you take care of its removal either manually or with the assistance of PC security software.
