Wwmiox.xyz

The Wwmiox.xyz site is a page that hosts a basic search engine. The search engine in question is QIP-based. QIP is a popular Russian search engine, which many basic search engines utilize. If the Wwmiox.xyz site is set up as your default new tab page, you may have installed a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) on your PC unknowingly.

Some PUPs mislead users into installing them by exaggerating their usefulness or using freeware bundles. The goal is to help an affiliated website, like the Wwmiox.xyz page, to generate traffic. This is usually done by the PUP altering the settings of the user’s Web browser to set up the affiliated website as a default new tab page. This way, the user will be forced to use the associated page. You may not be satisfied with the results delivered by the Wwmiox.xyz site, as it cannot compete with Google, Yahoo, Bing or other reputable search engines.

If you think that you may have installed a PUP on your PC, it is advisable to run a scan using a genuine anti-virus solution that will help you locate and eradicate any potential issues.
