Search.yourtelevisionhub.com Infection - How to remove

Search.yourtelevisionhub.com website is bothering you every time you open a new tab on the web browser you are using? If you didn’t install it yourself, that’s a clear sign that your computer has been affected by a browser hijacker that made those changes automatically and now you are forced to use this website.

For some, it might not look like not a big deal since this website is well developed and looks just like a regular search engine, similar to Yahoo or Google. Unfortunately, that would be a mistake to continue using this website because it can lead to various cyber security problems.  Your personal data might be collected and leaked, you might be exposed to additional advertisements, additional malware might be infiltrated into your computer and your system can experience a slowdown.

If those threats sound serious, you should really consider removing Search.yourtelevisionhub.com from your computer right now. In case you have no idea how to do that, please continue reading the article. We will provide you with detailed instructions on how to get rid of Search.yourtelevisionhub.com  either manually or automatically, so it’s up to you which method to choose.

Search.yourtelevisionhub.com Features

This infection is based on a browser extension. This method is common for browser hijackers, especially ones made by Polarity Technologies LTD. It’s not a secret, that Search.yourtelevisionhub.com was also produced by this company, along with many similar malware, such as Search.yourweathercenter.com, Search.hdopplerweatherradar.co, Search.heasytaxes.co, and so on.

That means in order to infect your web browser (it is compatible only with Google Chrome), this extension needs to be added to the list of active extensions. If that’s done, your new tab and default search engine will be automatically set to www.search.yourtelevisionhub.com.

Search.yourtelevisionhub.com website is introduced as a multifunctional tool that can provide you with access to various TV shows, live streams and so on. It is also an enhanced search engine that can improve the quality of your web searches. Sadly, none of that is true.

Speaking about the functionality promised by this tool, we have to mention that those ’features in the first place. TV shows and live streams most of the time are paid and you should look for services like Netflix or Tubi. Search.yourtelevisionhub.com will only feature a toolbar with links with various sites where you allegedly should be able to watch TV. However, most of those links will simply direct you to well-known websites or websites affiliated with Polarity. To put it straight – there is no value in that.

Now, the web search presented by Search.yourtelevisionhub.com is a whole different story. They employ a legitimate Yahoo search engine to deliver results, but they have an option to alternate search results and they use it to insert various sponsored links and advertisements that are not even relevant to your search queries. This means you will not only lose your time this way but might also be redirected to dangerous websites affiliated with Search.yourtelevisionhub.com. Also, all search queries and other personal data of yours will be collected by Search.yourtelevisionhub.com and might be transferred to other parties.

Lastly, other potentially unwanted programs might be secretly infiltrated into your computer by Search.yourtelevisionhub.com. So in the end, you can have multiple infections on the system without even being aware of that. This is probably the main reason why you should eliminate this browser hijacker.

How To Eliminate Search.yourtelevisionhub.com Infection
