Search.bestmediatabsearch.com Removal Guide

Search.bestmediatabsearch.com is a search engine that you will notice set on your Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox browsers. In the case of Google Chrome, this questionable search engine will set itself as the default homepage in order to be able to appear to you every day and will also change the settings of the New Tab page. In fact, the New Tab page will be modified on Mozilla Firefox too, so if you have this browser installed on your computer as well, we are sure that you will see Search.bestmediatabsearch.com on it. In most cases, this search engine appears on browsers because users install the BestMediaTab extension from bestmediatab.com. Of course, we do not say that this extension cannot enter systems without permission too. Either way, delete Search.bestmediatabsearch.com from Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome to be able to change the settings of these browsers. If you know nothing about the deletion of questionable search engines, we suggest that you read this report written by the specialists at 411-spyware.com.

Users who install the BestMediaTab extension on their computers willingly usually do that because they expect that they will be able to watch movies and TV shows online legally after the installation of the extension. We understand them well and do not blame them at all because the extension claims on its official website that it will enable users to watch TV on their computers and will even allow them to turn their browsers into TV Media centre. Unfortunately, not all the users notice the information that the settings of their browsers will be changed if they install the extension. Therefore, users often find the presence of Search.bestmediatabsearch.com surprising. To be honest, the BestMediaTab extension is not as useful as it claims to be – it only modifies the New Tab pages on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome and sets Search.bestmediatabsearch.com as the homepage on Google Chrome. Yes, you will find buttons that should lead users to online streaming and other useful websites at the top of the search engine. In addition, you could quickly access such popular websites as Facebook, Gmail, IMDb, YouTube, and Instagram because Search.bestmediatabsearch.com will contain easy-access buttons on its start page. In our opinion, it is not worth keeping this extension installed just because of that because specialists have revealed that Search.bestmediatabsearch.com is not the most trustworthy search engine in the world.

Let us explain you why Search.bestmediatabsearch.com is not considered to be a trustworthy search engine. First of all, it does not differ from other unreliable search engines, including search.searchinsocial.com and search.realcoolmoviessearch.com. Secondly, it displays the modified search results. Researchers have noticed that it redirects all the searches through search.bestmediatabsearch.com/?src=BestMediaTabt and only then displays Yahoo! search results, so it is not surprising at all that ads and third-party links are inserted among the legitimate search results along the way. It is quite dangerous to click on those advertisements and third-party links because they might quickly redirect users to third-party websites that are unreliable. It is also known that this questionable search engine might gather information about users as well. Luckily, it is mainly interested in non-personally identifiable information like search queries, websites users tend to visit, links they click on, and the like; however, you should still remove the questionable search engine and put an end to this if you do not wish to reveal anything to anyone.

Even though the BestMediaTab extension that promotes Search.bestmediatabsearch.com has an official website, it has been found that only some users download and install the extension willingly. According to the recent study, others allow it to enter their systems after clicking on a pop-up advertisement. On top of that, it might come together with other applications (especially freeware and shareware). Be more careful in the future if you do not wish this to happen again for you.

Luckily, it is not very hard to delete Search.bestmediatabsearch.com even though it is known to be a questionable search engine. All you need to do is to remove extensions from Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers. If our manual removal instructions do not help you to do that, you should scan your computer with a trustworthy antimalware scanner SpyHunter.
