Kaba-zaba[.]com is a page designed to promote other questionable pages and display deceptive content. There is a great number of websites like kaba-zaba[.]com on the Internet, for example, stream-your-vids[.]com, scleriends[.]website, and play-new-vids[.]com.
Kaba-zaba[.]com in detail
Kaba-zaba[.]com checks visitor's IP address to know whether to open a couple of untrustworthy websites or display deceptive content. In one way or another, it is highly advisable not to trust kaba-zaba[.]com or similar pages.
It is known that kaba-zaba[.]com displays a fake CAPTCHA test encouraging users to click the "Allow" button to prove that they are not robots. It shows this fake test with the purpose to trick visitors into agreeing to receive notifications.
In most cases, notifications from websites like kaba-zaba[.]com contain links to dubious pages, untrustworthy advertisements, etc. For this reason, it is highly advisable not to allow kaba-zaba[.]com and other pages of this type to show notifications.
Furthermore, kaba-zaba[.]com can open other untrustworthy pages, for example, pages designed to trick visitors into providing personal information, downloading and installing unwanted software. It is common for pages like kaba-zaba[.]com to be used to promote pages similar to "Access To This Pc Has Been Blocked For Security Reasons", "Your Chrome Is Severely Damaged By 13 Malware!", "You Are Our Winner Today!".
It is important to mention that kaba-zaba[.]com and similar pages are promoted through other shady pages, deceptive advertisements, potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). In other words, users do not visit pages like kaba-zaba[.]com intentionally.
More about PUAs
PUAs can be designed to serve advertisements and gather various information. It is common that they generate coupons, pop-up ads, surveys, banners, and other ads designed to promote shady, potentially malicious pages or execute certain scripts and download or install other PUAs.
Also, apps of this kind can be designed to function as data collectors targeting IP addresses, entered search queries, geolocations, addresses of visited pages, and other browsing-related details. What is worse, they may be capable of accessing information that could be used to steal personal accounts, identities, make unauthorized purchases, etc.

Pages like kaba-zaba[.]com and PUAs in general
In conclusion, it is not safe to visit kaba-zaba[.]com (and similar pages) or have PUAs installed on browsers or computers. As a rule, PUAs do not have any useful features or are useful to their users in any other way - most of them generate revenue for their developers by displaying ads, promoting shady pages, and (or) gathering various data.
How did adware install on my computer?
One of the deceptive ways to distribute potentially unwanted applications is to bundle them together with other programs. In other words, by including PUAs in downloaders and installers of other programs as optional offers.
In most cases, offers to download or install PUAs can be declined using "Advanced", "Custom" or other settings, or by unticking ticked checkboxes. Users agree to download or install offered apps when they finish downloads or installations without changing any of those settings.
Another deceptive way to distribute PUAs is by designing advertisements to execute certain scripts. Users cause unexpected downloads, installations by clicking those ads.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?
Questionable sources, tools like third-party downloaders, installers, Peer-to-Peer networks like torrent clients, eMule, unofficial websites, etc., should not be used to download or install any programs, files. It is recommended to use only official websites and direct links for that.
Advertisements on websites related to adult dating, pornography, and other questionable pages should not be clicked. Those advertisements can be designed to open other unreliable websites or even download, install unwanted software.
Downloaders and installers should be examined - they should be checked for settings like "Custom", "Advanced", or some checkboxes to see if there are any optional applications. It is worth mentioning that PUAs are bundled with free programs.
Additionally, it is strongly recommended not to have any suspicious plug-ins, add-ons, extensions installed on a browser or programs of this kind installed on the operating system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
