Even though it might seem that MoviesFanatic.com is a very powerful and useful search engine, we do not think that you should keep it because it might provide you with sponsored content and you might see various third-party links after entering a keyword into the search box. All these sponsored links and ads might cause harm to your system because they might take you to untrustworthy websites that contain malicious software. Do not forget that there are much more reliable search engines available, e.g. Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox; thus, you should use any of them instead of MoviesFanatic.com.

This product of Aztec Media does not travel alone. According to the researchers working at pcthreat.com, MoviesFanatic.com comes bundled with Shop Time, PathMaxx, Super Optimizer, and HealthcareGovTool.

It might not be very easy to detect and remove them, so we suggest using an antimalware tool on the system. If you install it, it will also make sure that you do not encounter products developed by Aztec Media in the future.
