Virus and Spyware Removal Guides, uninstall instructions

What is AnalyzerSkill?

AnalyzerSkill is designed to function as adware and a browser hijacker: it serves various advertisements and promotes the address of a fake search engine by changing certain browser settings. Furthermore, it can access sensitive information. In most cases, users download and install apps such as AnalyzerSkill inadvertently.

For this reason they are classified as potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

What is caravane-plantes[.]com?

Sharing similar traits with jioer.pro, mybestnewz.com, beforeigntools.club and countless others, caravane-plantes[.]com is an untrusted website. When this site is accessed, users are presented with dubious content and/or are redirected to other bogus or possibly malicious web pages.

Typically, caravane-plantes[.]com and similar websites are opened via redirects caused by intrusive ads or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already installed on the system. These apps do not require explicit user consent to be installed onto devices. PUAs cause redirects, deliver intrusive advertisement campaigns and collect browsing-related data.

What is somenewsabout[.]com?

somenewsabout[.]com is a rogue website, designed to deliver dubious content and/or redirect visitors to other untrusted/malicious pages. Few users access somenewsabout[.]com or similar sites (e.g. jioer.pro, mybestnewz.com, mypushz.com, readnewmessage.com, etc.) intentionally.

Many people are redirected to them by intrusive advertisements or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already installed on their devices. This software does not require express permission to be installed onto systems. PUAs cause redirects, run intrusive ad campaigns and collect private information.

What is belaininge[.]club?

After visiting belaininge[.]club, users arrive at other dubious pages or the website displays dubious content. Note that belaininge[.]club functions in a similar manner to jioer[.]pro, news-gg[.]com, urt-news1[.]club, and many other websites of this kind.

These pages are opened via deceptive ads, other untrusted pages, or by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). I.e., users do not often visit these sites intentionally.

What is the palnk[.]pw website?

Practically identical to jioer.pro, mybestnewz.com, mypushz.com and thousands of others, palnk[.]pw is a rogue site. Visitors to this web page are presented with dubious material and/or are redirected to other untrusted or possibly malicious websites.

Most users do not enter palnk[.]pw intentionally - they are redirected to it by intrusive ads or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already installed on their devices. These apps do not need explicit permission to infiltrate system, and thus users may be unaware of their presence.

PUAs operate by causing redirects, delivering intrusive advertisement campaigns and collecting browsing-related information.

What is arttowardstic[.]club?

arttowardstic[.]club is one of many untrustworthy web pages that are designed to open other websites of this kind or load dubious content.

The site is similar to jioer[.]pro, news-gg[.]com, urt-news1[.]club and many others. Commonly, these web pages are opened by browsers that have potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on them. I.e., users do not visit them intentionally.

What is CRPTD?

CRPTD is a malicious program categorized as ransomware. It is designed to encrypt the data of infected systems in order to demand payment for decryption. During the encryption process, all affected files are appended with the ".CRPTD" extension. For example a file originally named something like "1.jpg" would appear as "1.jpg.CRPTD" following encryption.

After this process is complete, ransom messages within "Recover files.hta" files are created and dropped into compromised folders.

What is ID SafeXpress?

ID SafeXpress is advertised as a tool which allows users to remove/clean any privacy-related issues on their computers. Note that its developers use dubious methods to distribute this software and, therefore, ID SafeXpress is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

What is search.trustenviroment.com?

search.trustenviroment.com is the address of a fake search engine. It is fake, since it does not generate any unique results. Generally, fake search engines addresses are promoted by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are classified as browser hijackers.

Note that adware can also promote fake search engines. PUAs often collect various user-system information and, in most cases, people download and install them inadvertently. Note also that search.trustenviroment.com is promoted via an unofficial, fake installer for Adobe Flash Player.

What is the "Microsoft Important Alert" scam?

"Microsoft Important Alert" is a tech support scam, promoted on various deceptive web pages. At the time of research, this scheme was promoted through the legitimate Amazon AWS (Amazon Web Services). The scam claims that users' computers have been infected with "Pornographic Spyware and riskware" and may be blocked to prevent further damage.

No website can detect/report on threats or issues present on visitors' devices, and the aforementioned scheme is no exception to this. Additionally, this scam is in no way associated with the genuine Microsoft Corporation. These types of scams abuse users' trust to generate revenue for the scammers behind them.

These deceptive sites are rarely opened intentionally - visitors typically access them via mistyped URLs, redirects caused by intrusive advertisements or by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs). This software does not need express permission to be installed onto systems, and thus users may be unaware of its presence on their devices.
