What is ExtendedWindow?
ExtendedWindow is classified as adware and a browser hijacker - it displays advertisements and promotes z6airr.com and adjustablesample.com (addresses of fake search engines) by changing browser settings. It can also read sensitive information from websites.
Generally, users download and install adware and browser hijackers inadvertently and, therefore, apps of this type are categorized as potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).
What is Saved (Scarab)?
Saved belongs to the family of ransomware called Scarab. There are at least two variants of this ransomware, both of which are designed to encrypt files, change filenames, and generate a ransom message.
One variant appends the ".saved" extension to the filenames of encrypted files (e.g., it would rename "1.jpg" to "1.jpg.saved", "2.jpg" to "2.jpg.saved", etc.), whilst another appends the ".save" extension (e.g., it would rename "1.jpg" to "1.jpg.save", "2.jpg" to "2.jpg.save", etc.).
One variant creates the "Инструкия.txt" text file as a ransom message, whilst the other creates "instructions.txt". Additionally, Saved ransomware prevents victims from accessing or using Task Manager by disabling it.
