The Media New Page Search extension is said to provide Web surfers with access to video streams and enable quick access to online radio. We have tested the Media New Page Search application and found that users are shown a pop-up window from h[tt]p://medianewpagesearch[.]com/widgets/live_player.php. The pop-up window from Media New Page Search may seem like an online media player, but it is not.

The search bar on the Media New Page Search New Tab is powered by a custom Yahoo engine, which produces search results on us[.]search[.]yahoo[.]com/yhs/search?hspart=ima&hsimp=yhs-batch1&p=[search terms]&type=batch1.
