What is Dimakadima.com?
Dima Kadima is a browser extension which promises to make it possible to “search for and take the most interesting quizzes”, but, in reality, it sets Dimakadima.com (home.dimakadima.com) which becomes the default homepage and search provider. Judging from the Add To Chrome button on its official website dimakadima.com and its availability at the Chrome Web store, this browser extension works on Google Chrome only. If it is the browser you use every day too, it will not be long before you notice changes applied to your browser. Most probably, the presence of Dimakadima.com will not surprise you at all if you have downloaded and installed the Dima Kadima extension willingly from any of its official sources. Of course, it will be the opposite if you are sure that you have not clicked on the Download button with the intention of getting it. In this case, it is very likely that this undesirable browser extension promoting a search tool set on your Google Chrome browser has found a way how to enter the system without permission. It is up to you whether to let it stay or not, but you should be aware of the fact that the search tool set on your browsers is not 100% trustworthy. Read what specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com have to say about it in the following paragraphs and then make the final decision yourself.
What does Dimakadima.com do?
Dimakadima.com looks like a trustworthy search provider, but it is not very real that it will improve your web searching experience, specialists say. They even tend to call it a browser hijacker because it usually shows up on users’ Google Chrome browsers without their permission. We have to admit that this page looks like a legitimate search engine. This is, there is a search box, a bar with buttons (Movies, Lifestyle, Television, Music, Politics, and Sports) at the top, and quick-access buttons opening such popular pages as Facebook, Yahoo, Amazon, Twitter, Wikipedia, Pinterest, and Instagram below its search box. Dimakadima.com does seem to be useful, but we would lie if we said that it is perfect and does not have a single drawback. Researchers at anti-spyware-101.com say that the search results page it opens for users when they enter a search query might be full of modified search results. They can take users to untrustworthy pages, so users should not click on them. Of course, it is easier to say than do. It is not so easy to say which of these provided search results are those modified ones, so all users sooner or later click on them. You could not click on them only if you fully delete Dimakadima.com from browsers. The browser extension Dima Kadima needs to be removed from your Google Chrome browser to do so. Experienced specialists recommend getting rid of it ASAP because, if we take for granted the information provided for users in the Privacy Policy, it also “may collect information that can personally identify you.”
Where does Dimakadima.com come from?
Dima Kadima is the browser extension promoting Dimakadima.com, so there is no doubt that users see this search tool because they have this extension installed. They could have downloaded it from dimakadima.com or chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dima-kadima/ljjdiappiioplbpkcpgjgelimjeadngk?utm_source=inline-install-disabled. On top of that, it could have entered the computer bundled with third-party applications. Actually, users who do not set Dimakadima.com on their browsers willingly usually allow the Dima Kadima extension to enter their systems without even realizing that. This does not surprise specialists at all because there are a number of untrustworthy browser extensions spread through bundled malicious installers out there. We do not say that you cannot prevent them from entering your system – install security software on your PC. Do not download software from the web if you are not sure it is 100% trustworthy as well. These two pieces of advice should help you to ensure the maximum protection of your system.
