What is TornTV?

TornTV, also known as Torn TV, is a computer application which streams a variety of online channels, including sports, movies, and news. The application is available at thetorntv.com, torntv.en.softonic.com, and some other freeware websites. Since the application is free of charge, it can be bundled with various programs, so you should pay close attention to the license agreement of the program. Due to this fact, the application may be referred to as a potentially unwanted program (PUP), and if you want to remove Torn TV from the computer, keep on reading to find out what measures should be taken. test

Why should you remove Torn TV?

Torn TV is known to distribute a browser extension which is already flagged as insecure. It has been found that TornTV is bundled with Delta Search, which is sometime referred to as a browser hijacker. When running the installer of the program, it is important to click on the “Advanced” installation and deselect ticks from three boxes related to the installation of Delta toolbar. If you make no changes on the installation wizard, you are also forced to use a new search provider. We recommend that you remove both the toolbar and TornTV because they neither enhance your browsing sessions nor make your time on the computer more pleasurable. When the settings of your browsers are changed, Delta Search may provide you with sponsored links and advertisements, which are no endorsed by the search engine. If your computer gets infected or your personal information is acquired by some cyber schemers, you are the one who is responsible for the consequences.

The toolbar installed by TornTV may monitor what search terms you use, what items you click on and how much time you send on particular websites. The information may be shared with other third parties and used for advertising purposes, but it is not necessarily you who will be provided with new advertisements. However, in order to prevent some unwanted tracking programs from monitoring you, remove the toolbar and restore the settings of the browsers.

Do not forget to remove TornTV, whose official website is already blocked by some computer security programs.
