Watch Movies Live

Watch Movies Live is a browser extension and a potentially unwanted program. You might come across it if you are looking for ways to stream favorite TV shows and movies or other content online. As you see, the application’s developers promise links to websites that could provide streaming content to those who add this extension. However, we advise you not to rush into installing this tool until you find out more about it. Since it is considered to be a potentially unwanted program, it means the application could have annoying and unwanted functions. To learn more about it, we invite you to read our full article. Moreover, if you have already added this application, but decide you do not wish to keep it any longer, you could use the deletion instructions located at the end of this text that explain how to remove Watch Movies Live.

Watch Movies Live can be obtained on the Chrome Web Store page (chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/watch-movies-live/mmdiafmbjnlgcdcpdfdbgpnhhhkanhdp). Also, many potentially unwanted programs are distributed through unreliable file-sharing sites, advertisements, or redirects. Therefore, it is possible that this extension could be spread through such channels too. If this is true, some users could obtain it while interacting with unreliable advertisements or visiting untrustworthy file-sharing web pages. Of course, we recommend doing neither of these things if you want to avoid receiving potentially unwanted programs or software alike in the future. The safest way to get new tools is to research them before you decide if you should install them. Also, it is crucial to search for legitimate sources that would allow you to download your chosen application and would not trick you into installing potentially dangerous programs.

Next, you should know that this browser extension is compatible only with Google Chrome. Thus, users of, for example, Internet Explorer, are unlikely to encounter it. After it is installed, the potentially unwanted program might make a couple of changes that a user should notice after launching his browser and creating a new tab. As you see, Watch Movies Live ought to place a toolbar with various links and a search box below the browser’s address bar. What about the changes that can be seen after opening a new tab page? Whatever websites your browser used to load after opening a new tab page, it might now load a specific search engine that is also available through the added toolbar’s search box. There is one thing that users ought to know about it. Our researchers noticed that after submitting a search keyword, the extension’s search boxes might redirect to a modified search.yahoo.com website. The difference between the original and the modified version is that the altered version could display results injected with advertisements from various third-parties that Watch Movies Live might be working with. Such content could come from anywhere, so it would be safer to be cautious with it.

What’s more, users who install Watch Movies Live might be interested in knowing that the potentially unwanted program could collect personal and anonymous information when it is used. The extension’s Privacy Policy document explains that such information could be obtained in connection with your use of the tools provided services or when you provide it yourself. Personal information is described as data that could identify you, such as your name, address, email address, and so on. As for anonymous data, the application’s Privacy Policy says that it could be device-specific information, search queries, ID addresses, geographical locations, hardware settings, date and time of events like when you click paid advertisements or disable extensions, and so on.

All in all, for a toolbar with links and a possibly modified search engine, you may allow this application to gather various information about you and your browsing habits. If this does not look like a fair trade to you, and you do not want to keep using a potentially unwanted program, we can help you erase Watch Movies Live. Users who wish to deal with it on their own could follow the instructions placed below that explain how to remove this extension from their Google Chrome browsers.
