KazuMedia.com – How Did I Get It?
You can get the KazuMedia.com adware in different ways. Third-party installations could have installed some software on your computer, which generates ads in your browsers. These installations usually come from freeware and bundled packages. Without your knowledge, additional content could be installed to your PC. Avoiding installations of this sort and any unwanted programs, is possible if you find Custom or Advanced settings in the setup.
KazuMedia.com can also be spread with the help of redirects and advertisements, which are hosted on suspicious websites. Pop-ups, pop-unders, and banners could contain such links which redirect. Visiting websites of an unknown origin, could trigger the adware to be injected to your computer system. Browsers which could be affected are: Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Safari.
KazuMedia.com – What Does It Do?
KazuMedia.com is the online address for an adware called KazuMedia. The site is promoted as a platform for games, movies, and music. The site says that this content is free, claiming to grant full access to those features after a successful registration. The registration may be free, but otherwise, you have to choose a plan for payment. You can see that immediately after providing personal details, the next step in the registration process is this:
KazuMedia.com has only a five-day trial period which is free, but after it expires, you will be charged a monthly fee of around 50 dollars. Withdrawing your subscription to any given plan is only possible if you call a phone number. The number is also presented to be free of charge, but it is not. Additionally, you might be asked for personal information which can be used for identity theft or can be sold to the highest bidder on the black market. Be very careful with any information that you share online.
The registration form that is seen in the above image looks exactly like the one of the 123vidz.com adware.
Here is another example:
The KazuMedia.com site can be loaded from advertisements that show as a result of an adware installed on your computer device. Some of these adverts can have text inside them.
Examples of texts that may show inside ads tied to the redirect:
- Ads by KazuMedia.com
- Advertisement by KazuMedia.com
- Ad by KazuMedia.com
- Advert from KazuMedia.com
- Powered by KazuMedia.com
- Brought to you by KazuMedia.com
Redirects can make money for the adware owners by using a pay-per-click scheme. It is highly likely for you to see targeted advertisements, pop-ups on the site from affiliates and other related things. That can be all because of tracking cookies used by the website. Adverts that are connected to KazuMedia.com are pop-ups, pop-unders, book and movie ticket discounts, banners, library coupons, sliders, as well as much more types.
