NetRadio seems to be a very useful program because it enables users to search for their favorite artists and then listen to the music. It says that it checks thousands of online radio stations in order to show you what is playing. If we believe the information provided on the official website of NetRadio, users themselves can “search for artists, song tiles, station names, shows, genres, and more…” The program advertised on netradioplayer.com really seems to be perfect; however, we do not think that you can trust it if it has entered your system without your permission or you have downloaded it from some kind of third-party website. It is because you might install a bunch of untrustworthy programs alongside and there is a possibility that a version from a third-party web page will act slightly differently. If you do not know how NetRadio has managed to enter your system, you should erase it and install a similar reliable program instead of it. Read more »

Our overall verdict is that you are better off removing TinyMediaPlayer. For the details, please continue reading our report. Read more »

Both the creators and developers of MovieJunkies New Tab have strong ties with Ask.com, and the program is probably just another try to promote the search engine. Therefore, there are no benefits to continue keeping it. Read more »

Chedot is a browser “built for speed, simplicity, and security.” It claims on its official website that it will help you to “download everything you need fast and safely.” As it makes so many promises, it is not surprising that users download and install this browser.

There are many Russian and Egyptian users’ complaints that this browser has appeared on their systems out of nowhere, so we can suggest that it is aimed at people living there mainly. Of course, other users might notice the presence of Chedot too, especially if they use Russian or Egyptian IP address. It does not really matter whether this program has entered your system without your permission or you have downloaded it yourself because this still does not change the fact that it is a potentially unwanted program (PUP).
