Remove Outfox.TV

Outfox.TV is a potentially unwanted program that gets installed on your machine at the same time that you install other free programs (video recording and streaming programs, downloading task managers, PDF-creating software, etc.). Outfox.TV can also get installed from numerous downloading platforms like 01net, Softonic, or Dowload.com), so if you’ve downloaded and installed software from these sites, your chances of ending up with this program against your will are pretty high. Many users have no idea where this software program comes from, which is why many of them think that it’s a virus.

For example, when you download the program called “Youtube Downloader HD,” the installer’s default setup will change your web browser’s home page so that it can replace it with Outfox.tv, and it will install the Outfox.TV toolbar.

This toolbar gets annoying pretty quickly because it displays a pop-up alert each time that new content is put online on Outfox.TV.

Simply uninstalling “Youtube Downloader HD” will not remove Outfox.TV and you won’t get your old settings back. You are going to having to do it manually, and that’s what we’ll explain how to do in the procedure shown below.

For your information please know that Outfox.TV is considered as suspicious only by Sophos.
