Debtpuma.com

Debtpuma.com is a site that uses its pretense of being a search engine to profit from search redirects by associated browser hijackers. Since similar websites that can be considered functionally identical to Debtpuma.com have also been known to be associated with rootkits and other PC threats by promoting malicious websites, SpywareRemove.com malware research team doesn't encourage anything reaction to Debtpuma.com other than closing its browser window immediately. Browser hijackers that promote Debtpuma.com may also force your search results to use Debtpuma.com as an intermediary between your normal search engine and your search results, and it's recommended that you scan your PC to remove Debtpuma.com-promoting browser hijackers instead of allowing Debtpuma.com to continue to profit from its click fraud scheme.

How Debtpuma.com Turns a Profit from Search Engine Exploitation

Debtpuma.com's orange-colored 'super search' interface will not make a mention of this lack of originality, but Debtpuma.com is, in reality, a copy of other sites that share its looks, scamming concepts and associated risks to your PC. Equally dangerous sites that share all major characteristics with Debtpuma.com include Buffpuma.com, Carpuma.com, Creditpuma.com, Dietpuma.com, Foodpuma.com, Gamblingpuma.com, Insurancepuma.com, Internetpuma.com and Loanpuma.com. SpywareRemove.com malware analysts recommend that you consider all of these sites as being equally hazardous for your PC and enact an anti-malware scan after exposure to any of them, even if no further interaction with Debtpuma.com is involved.

Because Debtpuma.com doesn't make a serious effort to promote itself by normal channels, you're unlikely ever to be exposed to Debtpuma.com unless a browser hijacker has redirected you to Debtpuma.com against your will. These Debtpuma.com-promoting redirects tend to occur in the following fashion:

• A browser hijacker-based PC threat is installed onto your PC by any one of various methods (such as drive-by-downloads or by a download link that's mislabeled to appear to be a media player update).
• Your web browser's search results (in most cases, restricted to Google) are redirected temporarily to Debtpuma.com.
• Debtpuma.com either allows you to continue on to your original result site or, in some cases, may redirect you to an unrelated and potentially hostile website.

Rejecting a Debtpuma.com Filter Over Your Online Searches

Although, in many cases, Debtpuma.com is avoidable by using search engines other than Google, SpywareRemove.com malware experts discourage simply ignoring Debtpuma.com redirect attacks. The presence of Debtpuma.com redirects can also be indicative of rootkits and other high-level PC threats that should be removed by dependable anti-malware products. Redirects that promote Debtpuma.com may attack any brand of web browser, and since they operate off of basic Registry-based settings, you shouldn't try to stop them by changing internal web browser functions.

Other security issues that may also be visible during infection by a Debtpuma.com-aligned browser hijacker include system crashes (or 'Blue Screens of Death'), search results that censor anti-malware sites and crashing PC security programs. If the latter prevents you from removing Debtpuma.com's browser hijacker with appropriate applications, SpywareRemove.com malware experts recommend that you boot into Safe Mode or use alternate methods to disable active PC threats prior to scanning your computer.
