How to remove apps forcing browsers to open fumigacioncdmx.com and similar pages

What is fumigacioncdmx[.]com?

Generally, users do not visit sites such as fumigacioncdmx[.]com intentionally - they are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on the browser. Apps of this type are classified as PUAs, since users often download and install them inadvertently.

They are designed to promote fumigacioncdmx[.]com and similar sites, and also to serve advertisements and collect data. More examples of websites that function in a similar way to fumigacioncdmx[.]com are check-message[.]live, arisedsore[.]info and legionship[.]club.

When visited, fumigacioncdmx[.]com loads dubious content or opens other untrusted pages - this depends on visitors' geolocations. Neither fumigacioncdmx[.]com nor pages that it opens can be trusted. In most cases, these sites attempt to deceive users into clicking the "Allow" button using 'clickbait' techniques.

This particular site suggests that visitors cannot continue browsing without allowing it to show notifications. If permitted, these pages show notifications that contain deceptive advertisements, links to dubious pages, etc. As mentioned, PUAs can serve advertisements.

Typically, they deploy coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, and others. By clicking these ads, users often arrive at untrusted potentially, malicious websites, or even allow the ads to execute scripts that cause download/installation of unwanted applications.

Furthermore, PUAs can cause problems relating to online privacy, browsing safety, and even identity theft. They can also collect entered search queries, geolocations, IP addresses, and addresses of visited websites that might include sensitive details. The information is misused to generate revenue by selling it to third parties (potentially, cyber criminals) or in other ways.

fumigacioncdmx[.]com and similar pages are often opened by PUAs, which do not include any useful features or improve the browsing experience. They are designed only to generate revenue for developers by promoting websites, serving advertisements and gathering data. As mentioned, users mostly download and install PUAs inadvertently.

How did adware install on my computer?

Browser hijackers, adware-type apps, and other types of PUAs are commonly distributed by integrating them into the download and/or installation set-ups of other programs, so that a proportion of users inadvertently download and install them together with their chosen software.

This distribution method is known as "bundling". Offers to download and install additionally-included apps usually appear in "Advanced", "Custom" and other settings of the set-ups (where they can usually be declined). Many users fail to check and change these settings, thereby granting permission for PUAs to be downloaded and installed by default.

In addition, unwanted downloads and installations are sometimes caused by clicking deceptive advertisements capable of executing certain scripts.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications

You are advised to research all software before download/installation. Use only official and verified download channels. Unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks (BitTorrent, Gnutella, eMule), and other third party downloaders commonly offer harmful and bundled content, and are therefore untrusted and should be avoided.

When downloading/installing, read the terms, study all possible options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings and opt-out of additional apps, tools, features, and so on. Intrusive advertisements typically seem legitimate, however, they can redirect to dubious and malicious sites (e.g. gambling, pornography, adult-dating, and many others).

If you encounter ads or redirects of this kind, inspect the system and remove all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
