The Search.searchwamtv.com Web portal is associated with the 'Watch More TV Now' browser extension published as freeware by Polarity Technologies Ltd. The 'Watch More TV Now' browser extension is classified as a new version of the Watch TV Now extension released by the same company a few months earlier. Polarity Technologies Ltd. is part of a network built by AdBistro, and the company is known for its ad-supported browser extensions. The 'Watch More TV Now' app and Search.searchwamtv.com are used to drive Web traffic to sites that utilize services by AdBistro. Applications like 'Watch More TV Now' are pushed to users via free program bundles mainly because the majority of the PC users online tend to use the 'Express' option and allow third-party apps to make changes to their Internet client. That way, extensions like 'Watch More TV Now' can attach to Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox without the user's explicit approval.
'Watch More TV Now' by Polarity Technologies Ltd. is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that is designed to cause browser redirect to promotional materials via Search.searchwamtv.com and may limit your search capabilities. The 'Watch More TV Now' extension is known to change the new tab page in Chrome to Search.searchwamtv.com and generate search results via a customized Yahoo engine on Search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?hspart=adk&hsimp=yhs-adk_sbyhp&p=. Web surfers may be suggested that the 'Watch More TV Now' extension offers exclusive access to content on platforms like Netflix, Hulu and ESPN GO, but that is not true. You can find links to Netflix, Hulu and ESPN GO at Search.searchwamtv.com, but there is no exclusive content that the 'Watch More TV Now' can deliver. PC users who are not fans of Yahoo and like to avoid the browser redirect caused by 'Watch More TV Now' extension may want to remove it using a reputable security scanner.
