I wrote this article to help you remove Screen Watch. This Screen Watch removal guide works for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Screen Watch is a classic member of the browser hijacker family. If you have it on board, you are in trouble. As all hijacker, the one you are stuck with is an extremely annoying, meddlesome and hazardous program. Its presence in your system won`t lead to anything good. Hijackers are considered horrible companions. Don’t expect this one to be any different because you will end up disappointed. Instead, take immediate actions to get rid of the intruder. The longer it stays on your machine, the more problems it causes and the more difficult it gets to be tackled. That’s why don’t waste any time in unnecessary debates.

Accept the facts that your machine in danger and act. Find the exact hiding spot of the intruder and remove it upon discovery. Do not give it enough time to get out of control. Each infection gets out of hand eventually and then the victim`s situation worsens. Do not let this scenario unfold. Find where the pest is hiding and do not hesitate to delete it for good. The sooner it is gone from your system, the better. Otherwise, it is just a matter of time before it causes you some irrevocable damage.

Once the hijacker has entered your system, problems start pouring. Your previously normal and enjoyable browsing experience is gone. Nothing is the same anymore because Screen Watch takes over. It starts making changes in your browsers` settings behind your back. For instance, it replaces both your homepage and search engine with the Search.mysearch.com page. You were neither asked nor informed about this reshuffle being implemented. The hijacker doesn’t need your permission. That’s why it is called that way. Besides the unauthorized changed, the pest also turns your online activities into a nightmare. You cannot make a single online move without it interfering. You are constantly being redirected to Search.mysearch.com and other just as shady sites. Your browsers struggle to display content properly.

Every site that you visit is completely covered in commercials in all shapes and forms which become more and more with each passing day. It is impossible to surf the web normally like you used to. The hijacker makes you avoid using your own machine. But there is something else. The nasty pest also jeopardizes your privacy. It starts spying on you from the moment it enters. It monitors everything you do online and records it. Then, it sends the data to its developers. Do you think your sensitive information will be safe with these strangers with agendas? We do not think so. They may use it for whatever they want or sell it to third parties. Either way, you will be the one to lose. Do not let the hijacker go that far. Remove it from your system as soon as possible and save yourself tons of issues. To do so manually, use our detailed removal guide at the end of this article or, if you prefer automatic solutions, download a good anti-malware program to do the job for you.

How did Screen Watch enter your PC behind your back? Usually, parasites like this hijacker rely on tricky tactics to enter victims` computers. Some of these tactics include spam email messages, fake program updates, corrupted pages and links, malicious ads, unverified download sources, etc. The thing is that if you are careless, each of these methods will work. If you are vigilant, though, you will be able to spot the intruder on time and prevent it from entering. Pay more attention to what you click online. Avoid suspicious sites and do not click on every “irresistible” offer that you see. The key to keeping your PC clean is to be cautious and to do your due diligence.
