MovieBoxSearch

Posted: September 11, 2020

MovieBoxSearch is a browser add-on that may be found by users who are looking for ways to discover streaming movies online or receive updates about the latest news from the world of Hollywood. However, MovieBoxSearch's promises to provide you with great content related to the movie scene is fake. This add-on does not have redeemable and useful features and, instead, MovieBoxSearch wants to generate traffic for the search engine found on Feed.movieboxsearch.com and Portal.movieboxsearch.com. These pages will be set as the default browser search aggregator and new tab page, therefore ensuring that users of MovieBoxSearch will end up visiting these websites dozens of times per day.

Thankfully, being a mild annoyance is the worst that MovieBoxSearch can do. This software is not harmful, but it can still be removed by using a suitable computer security scanner. Modern security products identify it as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) and are capable of removing all of its components.
