Search.searchlivesp.com
Search.searchlivesp.com is meant to provide you with access to all kinds of sports events, but it only displays links to espn.com, nfl.com, nbcsports.com/live, and collegesportslive.com websites.

Of course, that is an important detail, but you should also consider the level of utility. Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers suggest adding shortcuts representing these websites to your bookmarks bar. That way, you will be able to access them without a suspicious mediator. Of course, it is much easier to install something than it is to remove it. If you are inexperienced, you might feel lost, but we can help you delete Search.searchlivesp.com from any web browser.

Search.searchfreedm.com
Polarity Technologies Ltd. has developed a new product Search.searchfreedm.com recently. It shares similarities with the company’s older search tools, e.g. search.searchliveson.com and search.yourclassifiedscenter.com, but, unlike them, it, evidently, targets those people who travel a lot because buttons leading to geico.com (allows users to find the cheapest gas prices near them), Google Maps, and Bing Maps are available at the top of the page. They allow users to access these websites quickly. Unfortunately, it is the only useful feature of Search.searchfreedm.com. Yes, it has a search box in the middle of the page, but the search results it shows to users cannot be trusted fully.

As a consequence, users might be exposed to the commercial content if they use this page to perform searches on the web. Find out why it is not recommended to keep and use it as a default search provider by reading the following paragraphs. We are sure the knowledge you get will help you to make a right decision.
