Search.newtabtvsearch.com

It is possible to get infected with Search.newtabtvsearch.com when you visit unreliable freeware websites. That is how most users find this search engine as their new tab page and default search engine too. This infection affects Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, so whenever you open a new tab in those browsers, you will have to face this website. This is not only annoying, but you may also be introduced to unreliable web content every time you use this search engine. Since this browser extension may have been installed silently, i.e., without your knowledge, it is also possible that there are other malware infections you should be worried about as well. We are here to share with you what you might expect if you have this search engine on your computer. But we can tell you this now: You need to delete Search.newtabtvsearch.com from your browsers if you want to keep your PC protected.

The most likely way for this search engine to appear in your browsers is that you click on pop-up ads on questionable shareware and torrent websites. Obviously, if you visit such sites, most probably you are looking for free software to download. But you need to be careful on these pages where you click because you might end up with Search.newtabtvsearch.com in you browsers or worse. It is also possible to download other malware applications too this way. The worst thing that can happen is that you download and install a whole bundle of malware infections by simply clicking on a third-party ad or a fake button. That could really increase the vulnerability of your computer. These infected bundles most commonly contain adware apps and browser hijackers. Both of these types of malware you can easily spot because they do not hide too long. Once these are active, they will start displaying commercial advertisements of all kinds and change your browser settings. So, if you have noticed anything similar, you had better delete Search.newtabtvsearch.com and check for other threats before things turn sour for you.

Search.newtabtvsearch.com will be set as your new tab page and your search engine as well. Apart from a search box and some easy-access website thumbnails, this website also provides a quasi-toolbar with a third-party search tool and a few buttons that link to third-party websites that are associated with movies and television. This search engine does not even provide its own search results, instead, you will be redirected to plusnetwork.com where you might be presented with altered results that might include sponsored links or product advertising. Clicking on anything coming from third parties might be risky when it comes to this search engine. We advise you to stay away from them if you do not want to expose your computer to more malware infections or potentially become an online scam victim.

Although this infection has no uninstaller, so you cannot simply remove it via Control Panel, it is still quite a simple task to make it go away. You need to manually take care of the browser extensions, but if you do not know how to do that, you can use our guide below this article. Following all the steps should not take more than a couple minutes even if you are not an expert user. However, you need to know that your computer may still not be perfectly safe to use since other malware infections might be attacking it as well. That is why it is important to use a malware scanner and run a full system scan to see what you are up against. If it finds threats, you had better take action and use a decent antimalware tool to eliminate all of them. Protecting you operating system from similar attacks should be your priority if you want to feel safe in the virtual world.
