The TVStreamSurfer browser extension that is available for Google Chrome may attract the attention of users that like to spend time on the couch with their family and friends watching TV shows. The TVStreamSurfer extension is promoted as been capable of providing quick and easy access to content on Video-On-Demand services like Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Instant Videos. Unfortunately, the TVStreamSurfer extension is supported by rather aggressive advertisers that may flood your browser with pop-up ads, video commercials, and recommended deals on side panels. Security analysts classify the TVStreamSurfer extension as adware that behaves very similarly to Lucid Movies and StreamingWhereTV. Also, the TVStreamSurfer adware may hijack your search settings and direct you to the search provider at Search.tvstreamsurfer.com. The TVStreamSurfer adware may appear in your Extension Manager as TVStreamSurfer NEW TAB and make several modifications to the engine of your default Internet browser. The TVStreamSurfer adware may reroute your Internet traffic through Home.searchpile.com.
Security analysts alert that the TVStreamSurfer adware may allow advertisers to record every word you enter on Search.tvstreamsurfer.com to push related advertising content. The ads by TVStreamSurfer may welcome users to buy overpriced items on less-reputable e-commerce portals that may not support SSL encryption. Needless to say, it is a very bad idea to buy goods that are promoted by TVStreamSurfer because it may be faulty. The primary objective of the TVStreamSurfer adware is not helping you watch entertaining movies—it is to make you spend hundreds of dollars and generate affiliate marketing revenue for its developers. Also, the TVStreamSurfer adware may welcome you to provide your email address and phone number to receive unique coupons and discounts in the form of spam messages. The TVStreamSurfer adware is built with the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System, and may run as a background service in the Windows Task Manager as long as your computer is turned on. Therefore, since you may have trouble deleting its folder, you should install a reliable anti-spyware tool that can eradicate all components of the TVStreamSurfer adware securely.
