WatchMyTVShows Toolbar

WatchMyTVShows Toolbar is an extension that Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox users can download for free, and some people are likely to think that downloading this extension would be a great idea. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com experts do not agree. According to our research, the extension is a PUP (potentially unwanted program) that does not offer incredibly useful services and that can help undisclosed third parties use the integrated search tool for advertising purposes. That being said, the interface of the toolbar can appear very colorful and interactive, and so some users might choose not to dig deeper. Nonetheless, the extension is pretty much useless, and it cannot hide that for too long. If you have already decided to remove WatchMyTVShows Toolbar, we have a guide that, hopefully, will help you clean your browsers and the entire operating system. Continue reading the report to learn all about the process, and do not forget to use the comments section if you want to ask us questions about the PUP and how to delete it. Read more »

BBC Ransomware

BBC Ransomware

BBC Ransomware is one of those malicious applications that encrypt files. As a result, users cannot open the affected files. If they have backup copies, they can replace encrypted data, but if not, the affected files could be lost forever. Hackers behind the malware may say that they have decryption tools that could restore all encrypted files, but there are no guarantees that they will send such tools to you or still have them when it is time to deliver them. The more frustrating part is that cybercriminals ask to pay for the offered decryption tools and want to be paid first, which makes the whole deal very risky. If you want to know more about what this malware does and how you could erase it from your system, we invite you to read the rest of this article. Also, you might be interested in the deletion instructions available below if you decide to remove BBC Ransomware manually. Read more »
