Newtabtvplussearch.com Redirect

What is newtabtvplussearch.com?

Newtabtvplussearch.com is a fake Internet search engine identical to search.tv-newtabsearch.com and search.newtabtvsearch.com. Judging by appearance alone, newtabtvplussearch.com may seem similar to Google, Bing, or Yahoo.

Therefore, users often believe that this site is legitimate. In fact, it is promoted using deceptive software 'installers' developed to modify web browser settings. In addition, newtabtvplussearch.com collects various data relating to Internet browsing activity.

Bogus installer setups stealthily modify the Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox default search engine, homepage, and new tab URL browser settings by assigning them to newtabtvplussearch.com. Research shows that they also add a URL extension to the targets of each existing web browser shortcut.

Following successful modification, several browser plug-ins and/or apps (called 'helper objects') are installed to prevent users from rolling back these changes. Helper objects are designed to reassign settings to newtabtvplussearch.com when attempts are made to change them.

This leads to continual unwanted browser redirects, significantly diminishing the Internet browsing experience. In addition, newtabtvplussearch.com collects IP addresses, websites visited, pages viewed, search queries, and other similar browsing-related data that might contain personally identifiable details.

Furthermore, developers of this site share collected information with third parties who misuse personal data to generate revenue. Thus, data tracking can lead to serious privacy issues. If you are continually redirected to newtabtvplussearch.com without your consent, uninstall all recently-installed suspicious applications and never visit this site again.

Research shows that there are hundreds of dubious websites similar to newtabtvplussearch.com including, for example, easycurrentnewsaccess.com, search.opinteks.com, and so on. These claim to enhance the Internet browsing experience, however, their actual purpose is to generate revenue for the developers.

Rather than providing the functionality promised, sites such as newtabtvplussearch.com simply track Internet browsing activity, cause unwanted browser redirects, and deliver intrusive content-concealing online ads.

How did newtabtvplussearch.com install on my computer?

The developers employ a deceptive software marketing method called 'bundling', and since many users rush the download/installation processes, developers hide details regarding modification of browser settings within the 'Custom' or 'Advanced' download/installation section. Thus, users who skip this section, inadvertently allow 'set-ups' to perform various unwanted modifications.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

To prevent this situation, be attentive during the download and installation processes. Closely analyze each step using the 'Custom' or 'Advanced' settings and cancel all additionally-included programs. Furthermore, never allow installers to perform any modifications that seem irrelevant or suspicious.
