Findmebuy.com is a website that belongs to a dubious search engine. While Findmebuy.com is capable of producing search results, they are likely to be inconsistent, of low quality, and filled with sponsored advertisements that may not even match the entered search terms. Typically, pages of this type are promoted through the use ofa browser hijacker application and, rather understandably, few users would be willing to rely on them for search results willingly.
Browser hijackers are intrusive applications, often classified as PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) due to the questionable tactics involved in their distribution, created specifically to take control of the users' Web browsers. The homepage, new tab page, and default search engine of the affected browsers could all be switched to now open the promoted page. Redirects to the site will occur every time users launch the browsers, open a new tab or try to initiate a search via the browser's URL bar.
Many PUPs also are equipped with data-harvesting capabilities. While active on the user's system, they may monitor the browsing activities, collect numerous device details, or, in some cases, even try to access information saved in the browsers' autofill data. Typically, users save their account credentials, banking information, payment details, and other sensitive information that they want to be automatically filled in by the browser. The data collected by the PUP may be continuously transmitted to a remote server under the control of its operators.
