DESCRIPTION

OutfoxTV provides free TV to the desktop with an app and website offering over 100 channels of free entertainment. An early release had technical issues and was difficult to uninstall from browsers, but was quickly fixed by Outfox. Please DO NOT fall for online scams claiming 'OutfoxTV Virus' has taken over your computer - this is a scam spread by people who want to make you pay for their software and services. The attached user guide shows you how to configure OutfoxTV and also how to use the inbuilt uninstaller, and it's absolutely free. If you have any worries, or any issues getting uninstall to work, please email [email protected] (also free). DO NOT pay anyone who says they are charging you to remove outfox.tv - these services are a scam. *NOT* A VIRUS!!
