The LiveSportTV Now is an add-on, which is only compatible with Google Chrome and is being offered by mixPlugin.com. This software publisher's name is associated with a large number of Potentially Unwanted Programs, which might be rebranded under different names, but usually, end up offering similar 'features' to their users. However, the truth about the LiveSportTV Now and many other mixPlugin.com products is that they are nothing more than what malware researchers describe as 'Potentially Unwanted Programs.' The installation of the LiveSportTV Now may often lead to unexpected browser changes, which are not considered to be unsafe but are likely to annoy many users.
In the case of the LiveSportTV Now, users who install it might end up finding out that this extension has changed their default new tab page to a new search engine affiliated with mixPlugin.com silently. This change isn't unsafe by any means, but it may worsen the user's Web searching experience since it introduces them to an entirely different new tab page.
As the name of the extension suggests, the tool is meant to give users the ability to watch their favorite sports matches and channels from their Web browser directly. However, the extension does not support any of the aforementioned features, and all it does is to link users to 3rd-party pages and services, which may host such content.
If you have the LiveSportTV Now on your computer and you are not happy with it, then we advise you to take care of its removal as soon as possible. Since this application is not unsafe, it can be dealt with by using the Chrome extension manager to uninstall it.
