Carpuma.com

Carpuma.com is a search engine website that's cloned from similar websites with identical features, aesthetics and risks along with their similar web addresses. Although Carpuma.com may try to persuade you that its search functionality is reputable, SpywareRemove.com malware analysts have noted that Carpuma.com's only form of promotion in the web is through PC threats that redirect your browser to Carpuma.com and its relatives without your consent. These traits, along with the occasionally spotty nature of Carpuma.com's actual search results, make interaction with Carpuma.com something to be done with extreme care at the best of times. If you've experienced redirects to Carpuma.com or other 'puma' websites, you should also consider your PC to be potentially infected by high-level PC threats and use an appropriate anti-malware application to resolve the situation. Redirects to Carpuma.com, it should be noted, are usually unsolvable by making changes to your web browser (such as altering its security settings or even deleting it).

Don't Let Carpuma.com's Browser Hijackers Turn Your Searches Into Their Roadkill

Carpuma.com and related sites (including Loanpuma.com, Buffpuma.com, Dietpuma.com, Foodpuma.com, Internetpuma.com, Insurancepuma.com and Creditpuma.com) share a single template between them with only minor coloration and name changes to differentiate between them. As of the time of this writing, Carpuma.com itself hasn't been blacklisted for such offenses, but given its suspicious circumstances, it's recommended that you treat links from Carpuma.com with great care.

So far, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers have found that Carpuma.com-related attacks are limited to browser redirects that use Carpuma.com as a temporary destination for click fraud. Searches from Google.com may be forced to filter through Carpuma.com before continuing to the original result, and in some cases, may simply stop at Carpuma.com without loading your intended destination at all. Although these redirect attacks have been known to strike in most types of web browsers, the related PC threats give strong indications of being specific to Windows, and haven't been configured to trigger for other search engines (such as Bing or Yahoo Search).
