According to information found on their website, Results Hub is a tool that allows you to have your web searches and results, all in one place. In reality, Results Hub is nothing but an adware hiding behind this so called functionality that in all truth will give you no advantage at all.
We say Results Hub is an unwanted adware, because no one in their right minds will install it on purpose, it gets installed without really warning you after you started some install process for a free software you found on the internet. Its real goal is to show as many ads as possible in order to win advertising commissions for its creator. Plus, Results Hub will take the time to spy on everything you do, saving useful data they can sell afterwards.
Besides modifying your registry and adding an icon into Windows menu, Results Hub also adds some directories in your hard drive, including:
C:\ProgramData\Results Hub
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Results Hub
C:\Program Files (x86)\Results Hub
Results Hub is a new version of several adware already covered in our pages like Wander Burst, Gem Grab, Deals Avenue, etc… The developer behind all of them takes the time to change its program name and digital signature to avoid being detected by antivirus software.
