Considered to be a Potential Unwanted Program (PUP) by computer security researchers, the Television Fanatic Toolbar is a Mindspark Interactive Network powered toolbar and a Web browser add-on. Television Fanatic Toolbar may offer functions for viewing TV over the internet in addition to searching the web using the Myway.com website instead of any that you have previously selected in the Internet settings. These search functions will end up using the Myway.com Internet search engine instead of any that you may favor. The Television Fanatic Toolbar promises to offer many TV features on the Internet as well as search functions. Its advertisement says: 'You can now enjoy one-click access to local TV listings, watch recently-aired episodes of your favorite shows and viral web videos, plus TV news and show recaps – all in one convenient spot!' When loaded, the Television Fanatic Toolbar may load itself on all Web browsers installed on your computer, which include Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox. Removal of Television Fanatic Toolbar may require the use of an updated security application that is capable of removing all components and the Television Fanatic Toolbar-related add-ons within each Web browser.
