The New Way Sports browser extension is an adware and users might install it with a freeware package without notice. The New Way Sports adware is a variant of the WatchAnyGame adware by Informer Technologies, Inc. and is very similar to Fetch Sports. The New Way Sports adware may claim to help users follow the progress of their favorite sports team and sports athlete, but its main objective is to push coupons, discounts and promotions to earn affiliate marketing revenue. The New Way Sports adware may place shortcuts to Skysports.com, Standard.co.uk and Espnplayer.com on your desktop to dissuade you from uninstalling it. The New Way Sports adware is a security vulnerability because it is not digitally signed, may load insecure content and its Internet traffic is unencrypted. The New Way Sports adware may load pop-up windows and banners while you are surfing the Internet and read the meta tags of pages you visit to invite you to purchase sports goods from partners.
The activities of the New Way Sports adware should not be tolerated, and you may be redirected to less-reputable online stores where third parties may steal your credit card data. Additionally, the New Way Sports adware may ask to access your social media accounts and post promotions on your news feed. Do not allow the New Way Sports adware to post on your behalf considering that it may redirect your friends to phishing pages and ruin your contacts. The New Way Sports adware may install its files in the hidden AppData directory to prevent users from removing it manually and evade security scanners. Also, the New Way Sports adware may invite users to install badware like MaxDownload and Unfriend Watch when they open their Web browser and claim pay-per-install revenue. Computer users might want to use a renowned anti-malware solution to purge the New Way Sports adware and shop online safely.
