ConsoleLog adware is designed to promote the Safe Finder website (by opening it through akamaihd.net), and also to serve various advertisements and collect sensitive information.

What is Download Apps Now?

Download Apps Now is a rogue application, categorized as a browser hijacker. It is endorsed as an easy access tool to a variety of content. For example, to popular email providers as well as weather, news and video streaming websites. This app operates by modifying browsers in order to promote hdownloadappsnow.app - a fake search engine.

What is M0rphine?

Discovered by dnwls0719 and similar to SatanCryptor ransomware, M0rphine is a malicious program. Systems infected with this ransomware experience data encryption and receive ransom demands for decryption tools/software.

During the encryption process, all affected files are renamed according to this pattern: original filename, unique ID assigned to the victims, cyber criminals' email address and the ".M0rphine" extension.

For example, a file like "1.jpg" would appear as something similar to "1.jpg. [ID-764E0CF4DF4828D6303F40B19514805A] -[EMAIL-M0rphine@cock.li].M0rphine" following encryption. After this process is complete, a ransom message ("# M0rphine Help #.hta") is dropped into every compromised folder.

What is myappsclub[.]net?

myappsclub.net is a fake search engine. These bogus search tools typically cannot generate unique results and record information relating to browsing activity. Fake search engines are usually promoted by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) called browser hijackers. They do so by making modifications to browser settings and often monitor users' browsing habits.

What is the "Cisco Webex" scam email?

"Cisco Webex" is an email phishing scam. These messages claim to be official mail from the Cisco Webex Team, stating that issues have been detected with recipients' Webex Mettings SSL certificates. Therefore, their accounts must apparently be verified.

Cisco Webex is a legitimate company, developing web conferencing and videoconferencing software. While the scam emails closely mimic the graphic design and formatting of genuine Cisco Webex Team messages, they are bogus.

If recipients attempt to log-in via the link presented in the fake email (to rectify the nonexistent problems), they are redirected to a phishing website, which appears identical to the legitimate Webex Meetings log-in page. Note that there has been an increase in scams/infections targeting Cisco Webex services/products.

What is Free Forms Online Tab?

Free Forms Online Tab is advertised as an app which provides quick access to various forms. In fact, it promotes a fake search engine (hfreeforms.online) and collects various user-system information. Like most apps of this type, it promotes hfreeforms.online by changing certain browser settings.

Note that people tend to download and install browser hijackers unintentionally. Therefore, they are categorized as potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).
