What is nextyourcontent[.]com?
nextyourcontent[.]com is one of many rogue sites that cause redirects to other untrustworthy, potentially malicious websites or display dubious content. People do not generally arrive at nextyourcontent[.]com intentionally. These web pages are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are installed on browsers and computers.
PUAs commonly gather data and deliver intrusive ads. Note that nextyourcontent[.]com is virtually identical to other sites of this type such as tinhoranding[.]info, usecytonsmehers[.]info, and geting[.]pro.
What is StudyDisplay?
StudyDisplay is an adware-type application that supposedly enhances the internet browsing experience. Apps of this type are also known as potentially unwanted applications (PUAs), since most people are tricked into downloading and installing them unintentionally.
It is also likely that people who have StudyDisplay installed on their systems will be fed unwanted ads. Furthermore, this app might be designed to collect information relating to users' browsing activity.
What kind of malware is Qakbot?
Qakbot (also known as Quakbot or Qbot) is a banking trojan designed to steal personal information. Cyber criminals proliferate this virus using spam email campaigns.
These emails are delivered with malicious attachments (Microsoft Office [typically Word] documents) that are presented as various important documents (bills, invoices, and so on). Criminals attempt to trick users into opening these files, which then leads to infiltration of Qakbot. In most cases, spam emails are sent via the Geodo (Emotet) botnet.
What is "Google winner" email scam?
The "Google winner" scam is distributed using a spam email campaign that tricks people into believing that they have won £950,000.00. In fact, this particular email steals private information by leading users to websites where they are asked to enter login details, passwords, etc.
These emails are often used to distribute malicious programs. Therefore, do not trust "Google winner" and other similar scams - ignore them.
What is 50million[.]club?
The 50million[.]club domain is often used by adware developers and their associated adware-type apps. They use this domain to promote dubious websites.
These advertise unwanted applications and are related to gambling, dubious investments, and various other untrustworthy websites. 50million[.]club is promoted through pop-up windows, intrusive ads, etc. In addition to unwanted ads, adware-type apps might collect information relating to users' browsing activity.
What is tinhoranding[.]info ?
People do not generally arrive at tinhoranding[.]info intentionally - this is a rogue site that causes redirects to other untrustworthy web pages or displays dubious content. Note that tinhoranding[.]info is similar to many other sites of this type including verytearfoilew[.]info, geting[.]pro, and newsfrog[.]me.
Generally, these websites are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). When installed, PUAs also display ads and collect data.
What is Amigo X-3?
Discovered by GrujaRS, Amigo-X3 ransomware is a malicious program designed to encrypt files stored on victims' computers and keep them inaccessible and unusable unless ransoms are paid. Amigo-X3 renames all encrypted files by adding the ".Amigo-X3" extension.
For example, "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.Amigo-X3". Instructions about how to buy a decryption tool can be found in a text file called "!!!READ_IT!!!.txt".
What is Non?
Non (also known as NonRansomware) is high-risk ransomware discovered by malware researcher, GrujaRS. Research shows that developers proliferate this ransomware using a trojan-type infection called DanaBot. Once infiltrated, Non encrypts most stored data and appends filenames with the ".non" extension.
For example, "sample.jpg" becomes "sample.jpg.non". Once data is encrypted, Non creates a text file called "HowToBackFiles.txt" and stores a copy in each existing folder. Additionally, Non records various system information (e.g., OS version, username, etc.) and sends it to a remote server.
What is Plurox?
Plurox is the name of malicious software (malware) that is capable of proliferating itself on other computers connected to a local network. Its main purpose is to use victims' computers to mine cryptocurrency. Therefore, Plurox operates as a cryptocurrency miner.
Generally, people are unaware of having this type of software installed on their computers. If your system is infected with Plurox, we strongly advise that you remove this malware immediately.
What is Free Online Manuals?
Free Online Manuals is yet another rogue application that is identical to My Forms Suite, Local Weather Radar, Quick Email Login, and many others. By offering easy access to various user manuals, Free Online Manuals attempts to give the impression of legitimacy, however, it is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA) and a browser hijacker.
There are three main reasons for these negative associations: 1) stealth installation without users' consent; 2) tracking of browsing activity, and; 3) modification of browser options.
