What is search.hpdfconverterhub.com?

search.hpdfconverterhub.com is a fake search engine that claims to improve the browsing experience by providing quick access to popular websites and generating improved results.

Judging on appearance alone, search.hpdfconverterhub.com may seem legitimate and useful, however, developers proliferate this app using a browser-hijacking app called PDF Converter Hub, which supposedly helps users to view and convert PDF files.

In addition, search.hpdfconverterhub.com and PDF Converter Hub are designed to gather information relating to browsing activity.

What is enewssubspush.info?

Identical to deparationew.info, stalluva.pro, uniquecaptcha.com, concreasun.info, and many others, enewssubspush.info is a rogue site designed to display dubious content and cause redirects. Visitors typically arrive at this site inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive ads displayed on other rogue sites.

PUAs are likely to infiltrate systems without users’ permission. In addition to causing redirects, these apps also generate intrusive advertisements and record user-system information.

What is efishedo.info?

Developers of the efishedo.info rogue website have designed it to redirect visitors to other dubious sites or to display malicious content. The site is very similar to other websites of this type including, for example, deparationew.info, concreasun.info, and verifycaptcha.com. Note that there are many more virtually identical web pages.

Most people end up visiting efishedo.info unintentionally - they are redirected to it by potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) that they install inadvertently. These apps force people to visit untrustworthy websites, feed them with intrusive ads, and collect various data.

What is durington.info?

durington.info is an untrustworthy, rogue website that has similar behavior to many others of this type such as deparationew.info, concreasun.info, and verifycaptcha.com. The site displays dubious content or redirects users to other dubious websites. Note, however, that most people are forced to visit durington.info by potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) that they install unintentionally.

Therefore, most people do not visit this site willingly. Furthermore, PUAs feed users with intrusive advertisements and collect browsing-related information.

What is Beta Bot?

Beta Bot (also known as BetaBot or Neurevt) is high-risk infection that significantly diminishes system resistance to various other infections.

Developers often proliferate Beta Bot using spam email campaigns, instant messaging programs, and infected USB drives. Following infiltration, Beta Bot disables any installed anti-virus/anti-spyware suites and prevents users from accessing cyber security websites. In addition, Beta Bot gathers private information.

What is SEED LOCKER?

This ransomware was discovered by Emmanuel_ADC-Soft. SEED LOCKER is a malicious program that belongs to the Everbe ransomware family. Like most ransomware-type programs, it is used to encrypt data (make it unusable) and make ransom demands.

After encryption, files affected by this ransomware have a new, additional extension (".seed"). For example, a file named "1.jpg" is renamed by SEED LOCKER to "1.jpg.seed". The program also generates a ransom message within the "!#_How_to_decrypt_files_#!" text file.

What is Macro Malware?

Macro Malware (also known as Microsoft Office Macro Virus or simply Macro Virus) is the generic name for system infections distributed using Microsoft Office macro commands.

Cyber criminals design MS Office documents to execute commands that download and install viruses onto the system. In most cases, these infections are in the form of documents proliferated using spam email campaigns.

What is search.pdftycoon.com?

search.pdftycoon.com is a fake search engine that is virtually identical to search.yadbazelet.com, search.elifaint.com, search.fegline.com and many others of this type. Developers promote this site using an adware-type potentially unwanted app (PUA) called PDF Tycoon.

This app (and its associated fake search engine) collects data relating to users' browsing habits and modifies browser settings.

What is Advanced Clean Pro?

Advanced Clean Pro is a dubious application that supposedly allows users to optimize their computers and enhance performance by removing infections and fixing system errors.

Initially, this app may seem legitimate, however, it is distributed using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling" and often infiltrates systems without users' consent. Therefore, Advanced Clean Pro is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

What is "TD Bank Email Virus"?

"TD Bank Email Virus" is a scam that cyber criminals use to infect computers by tricking people into opening attachments included within rogue emails. Scammers use this particular spam campaign to proliferate the TrickBot malicious program. This is high-risk computer infection that can cause serious problems. If you receive this email, ignore it.
